With the update of iOS, the Apple CarPlay in-vehicle system is powerful and allows iPhone users to focus more on driving. Currently, in addition to Apple CarPlay’s original phone calls, navigation, listening to music, sending and receiving messages, etc., the recent LINE 10.13.5 version update finally supports CarPlay! Although to be honest, the LINE functions that can be used with CarPlay are still limited at present. They can only read messages, reply to messages, and send messages. However, for drivers who often have urgent messages to reply to, this way they can focus more on driving and avoid danger or penalties caused by looking at their mobile phones while driving.
LINE 10.13.5 version updated, supports CarPlay function
For iPhone users who drive a vehicle that supports CarPlay, it is very convenient to connect their iPhone to the vehicle and activate CarPlay while driving, whether it is navigation, listening to music, making calls, or replying to messages. However, there are currently not too many communication-related applications supported by CarPlay. However, the LINE 10.13.5 version update finally provides support for the CarPlay system for iOS.
After the update, you can find the LINE application on the screen when you open CarPlay. If there are unread messages, the number of messages will also be displayed.
If you want to check unread messages, due to the current limitations of the CarPlay system, users can only use Siri voice assistant to speak commands to choose to listen to unread messages, or add new messages through voice input.
Taking listening to unread messages as an example, Siri will first read the latest unread messages, and then ask the user if they want to reply:
If you choose to reply, just say what you want to reply to, and the system will send it to the other party as a text message.
