 Even when it comes to cars using iOS, all areas of Apple want to be affected. '


At the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2022 event, iPhone maker Apple Inc. has announced plans to integrate software and delve into the core driving field of cars.


This was confirmed when Apple unveiled a new car dashboard displaying key instruments such as speed gauges, fuel levels and distance gauges at a session at WWDC yesterday.


The software known as Apple Carplay is not only limited to the main instrument alone but also connects other core driving systems such as music displays and maps.


The use of Apple Carplay is not something new in the United States because the software is widely used, including Tesla even though it has its own software.



As you know, the famous Chinese electric car (EV) brand owned by Geely and Volvo Cars, Polestar is the first car that will integrate this new Apple Carplay.


In addition, Apple is also said to be in talks with Ford Motor Co., Nissan Motor Co. and Honda Motor Corp.


Even so, a Ford spokesperson announced that they had a software deal, Android Auto with Google Alphabet last year.


It turns out that Apple's latest plan will open a new chapter in the world of EV software, while the industry is seen gaining ground around the world after the introduction of Tesla.


Meanwhile, Apple shares closed less than 1% and the presentation at the WWDC did not seem to affect investor sentiment towards the technology sector.
