It wasn't seamless, and frankly, in some cases, it could be distracting to move back and forth if you were doing something that you could do on a phone projection type of system, versus if you needed to do something in the vehicle, GM CEO Mary Barra said on The Verge's "Decoder" podcast in October. But there's now a solution for all the Apple CarPlay power users out there that also happen to own a GM-made EV that doesn't have their go-to smartphone mirroring feature.
If your car supports Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, that will continue. Both will remain available in all GM gas-powered vehicles for the foreseeable future. As we advance toward our centralized computing platform, we'll gradually move to a better, more deeply integrated experience - a direction the broader industry is taking as vehicles become more software-defined. This will happen over time, not overnight. We value our collaboration with Apple and Google and remain focused on delivering experiences customers love.
