It was either a PR stunt or it was a test of how far you can go to Apple: A USA developer offered a car in a briefly a car play app, with users with a web browser and a video player on the car’s screen via Apple’s car interface. However, shortly after being known, Apple intervened and asked the developer to collect the function again.
Indeed, the fearless design company, which was actually afraid of the matter, specializes in reading and displaying the clinical data of the car with its app. This data is read out of the vehicle, which works to display information about the technical status and previous visits of the vehicle, through the purchase of an OBD adapter and according to the app details.
Smuggling of app review
On Sunday, the developer now surprised with a new function, with which the websites and videos were likely to be displayed on the cars parked. Apple does not place both tasks itself and does not provide them in the approved programming interfaces and app categories for the CarPlay app.
How the developer managed to get the developer with strict app review work. Eventually, a new in-app of $ 10 was also associated with the purchase of $ 10 to unlock the function. This option was also activated by app examiners. Meanwhile, however, Apple has improved: According to the developer, he received a direct request from Apple to remove the function as this app does not suit the store guidelines. This request has now been followed and in-app purchases have been done Report 9to5MAC page,

Apple clearly limits the carplay interface for safety reasons and to avoid the distraction of drivers in some categories. This includes apps for charging navigation, podcast, audio books, weather, news, music, food, electric cars and communication apps. However, the latter also provides only restricted options for viewing – to drive free from distraction, messages are read instead.
If you still want to use your car display for videos and carplays, you will find some devices on the accessory market that should enable it with the help of Android Auto and CarPlay. A few weeks before the WWDC Developer Conference in June, it can be seen that Apple clearly has no ambition to change something in the current magic of such tasks.
