CarPlay also allows you to view specific apps, make calls, talk to a digital assistant (Siri), and other vehicle functions that support the service. This is the competition between the American search giant and Android Auto on Android phones. .

In a blog post, the company said: The changes will be rolled out starting today and map navigation services will be launched on Apple Watch in the coming weeks.
