Is Apple CarPlay Worth It? Hey guys it's Phil here from TechSmartt and I've been using Apple CarPlay for the last
two weeks. In this video we're going to be talking about what Apple CarPlay is and how
it works as an after market system cause clearly I'm not using a 2014/2015 car which with the
unit. Without further wasting any time, lets go ahead and jump right in. Basically, Apple
CarPlay is an interface overlayed on top of another car media system. Here I have the
Pioneer 5000 NEX. It's a standard double-din touchscreen head unit. It has navigation with
all of that on-board, however this is actually capable of running the Apple CarPlay interface
on-top. CarPlay, what it really is in it's most stripped down form, is its an overlay
on-top of another overlay. Starting off right here, if I just go ahead and hit 'Home' you're
going to be greeted with the original home screen
on this
Pioneer head unit.
