Ditto. CarPlay actually works, and works well. It’s clean, simple, and easy to use. The buttons are big enough and clear enough to use while driving, which is supposed to be the point.

CarPlay wouldn’t have been necessary in the first place if auto manufacturers were any good at software design - but they’re NOT. I’ve driven cars without CarPlay. The interfaces are trash. GM forcing people to use a shitty interface because they don’t want to license a good one is a terrible, terrible idea. I have absolutely zero faith in their ability to do the job right. I won’t even consider a car that isn’t compatible with CarPlay.
