SMARTPHONE INTEGRATION AND YOUR NEW CHEVY IN RADFORD, VA
An Overview of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for Chevy Models
Harvey's Chevrolet Buick carries new vehicles that have the latest communication and entertainment features. Among these, you will find useful for driving around Salem, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Learn how each of these work and test the features for yourself at our Radford location.
Apple CarPlay
Apple CarPlay is a feature that allows you to access your vehicle's infotainment system through your iPhone. It displays most of your phone's apps, and you may use them as usual by connecting a cable. Apple CarPlay is compatible with iPhones produced in 2012, which includes the iPhone 14 and other recent lower-cost devices.
If you don't want to use a cable, you often have the option of wireless connectivity through Bluetooth. Most vehicles come with their own navigation system, but you may override that system by clicking an icon.
You can accept calls and texts, find directions, and listen to music and podcasts without compromising safety on the road. You may arrange the apps in the order you want, access Google Maps, and set a reminder of where you parked in Blacksburg. Siri is the voice command function available in some vehicles that you can use to ask questions and share information.
Android Auto
Android Auto displays your phone's apps on your infotainment screen, which is usually done with a cable. You will need the latest version of Android Auto and a compatible infotainment system to use the interface. Google Maps enables you to find alternate routes and includes a pinch-to-zoom function and panoramic street views.
Google Virtual Assistant offers you a preview of messages, manages your tasks, and answers your questions with voice commands. You also get access to iHeart radio, Google Audiobooks, and news while being able to focus on the road. If you need more apps, you may download them to your system from the Google Play store that appears when you restart your vehicle in Christiansburg.
