Google brings conversational Gemini to Apple CarPlay
Google just added its Gemini AI assistant to Apple CarPlay within Google Maps, letting US drivers handle complex, multi-step queries like finding pit stops and rerouting around toll roads using natural voice chat. Drivers simply tap the on-screen Gemini icon to trigger it. It still lacks the personalized Gmail and Calendar integrations recently given to Android Auto, but it brings long-overdue conversational smarts to iPhone drivers.
