CarPlay users will soon be able to use the chatbot of their choice instead of Siri. As bloomberg According to reports, Apple is working on adding support for CarPlay voice control apps from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others. Previously, users who wanted to use third-party chatbots in the car would have to go through their iPhone, but soon they may be able to talk with ChatGPIT, Cloud, or Gemini directly in CarPlay.
However, Apple reportedly “will not let users change the Siri button on CarPlay or the wake word that invokes the service.” Therefore, users have to manually open the app of their favorite chatbot. However, developers will be able to automatically launch voice mode when their apps are opened, which could help streamline the experience.
according to bloombergThe inclusion of third-party chatbots in CarPlay may begin rolling out “within the coming months,” but has not yet been officially announced. The rumored update follows Apple’s announcement last month that Google Gemini will power an updated version of Siri, which is expected to arrive sometime this year.
