Hi

Apple CarPlay for:

It will work exactly like in this video, via Acura Navigation Joystick aka Jog

Stop telling me that I can do all these things safely. All you're doing is making distractions more easily accessible. Trying to pitch your product as something that will benefit you because now you are somehow "more safe" is bullshit.

As far as the actual product goes, this doesn't seem much different than downloading an app with large buttons and mounting your phone to your dash. Either way I'm going to have to reach forward to navigate. I'm not sure about apple but on android there are plenty of car dashboard apps that make your buttons larger and easier to navigate. I guess it looks better than just having your phone up there so there's that.

With CarPplay entire thing can be controlled via Siri

Curious on exactly how this works, and also if you will support Android Auto.
ALSO I think something is up with your website. I was looking up your navtook for an Infiniti and the link to the install instructions is broken.

Is this an all in one adapter like your output adapter available on your website? How is the installation process and does it also integrate with Bluetooth calling. Having an 09 TSX I am very interested but want to know more. This would definitely update the car quite a bit.

hi, the idea and installation is same as the adapters we sell on the site, except this device single purpose is carplay

Will this product still be available without a group buy??. I really want this if it works and integrates seamlessly like the rest of your products, how does the CarPlay interface update if neccessary?

Hi

We are pausing Carplay pre-orders atleast until July 2016

We help Focus groups where we learned limited amount of apps for CarPlay and Price of the product can't coexist at this time. The biggest negative is that only native apple maps are available as navigation. Most participants chose full screen mirroring over carplay

Thank You
