For me the importance is that it’s free - I wouldn’t even pay $5 a month for a service that I’d use in very unlikely situations probably once or twice a year.

They said it’s free for 2 years with any new purchase of iPhone since iPhone 14; and now they’ve extended it for 1 more year. No one has had to pay for any of it yet - and it’s unknown if/when/how it’ll be a paid service

I didn’t realise android did free SMS over satellite when there is no cellular connection

“Accidentally”

I don’t think a back button is needed - just swipe from the left of the screen?

Actually with some print heads they will be damaged if there is no ink

You can retrofit a head unit or a screen to an older car. It works really well and gives so many more years to an older vehicle.

Look for “CarPlay screen” on amazon

CarPlay transmits audio over wifi

I agree, but Apple built this tech for their users, and for whatever reason people choose to use it.

Some people choose not to use it. So why expect Apple to open their walled garden? If all your friends are inside and they love the flowers, maybe the answer isn’t to ask for free flowers from inside, but either go in yourself or choose to stay outside without the flowers?

Isn’t this like going to someone’s house and not liking their cooking, and then demanding they order pizza for you to accommodate what you want?

Just use WhatsApp / email?
