WhatsApp comes to CarPlay before Apple Watch

Incredible but true, what your eyes read about the title is totally true, WhatsApp, the most used messaging application in the world, It is present on many platforms, one of the last to receive it with open arms is CarPlaand, the iOS mirroring system for cars.

From now on you will be able to enjoy WhatsApp in the CarPlay user interface, being able to receive notifications on your car screen, taking advantage to dictate the answers among other things. Honestly, it seems that WhatsApp is rowing against the tide, considering the way it releases updates.

Ultimately, We are going to see the notifications in a similar way to that of iOS, it will appear in a drop-down above. If we click on it, we will listen to what they have sent us, thanks to the iOS reader, in the same way that we will be able to respond to the notification quickly and easily. In addition, the WhatsApp icon in CarPlay will show a small counter of unread messages, something like in iOS, the reality is that it is visually attractive and seems well designed, the problem is the operation and the real usefulness of an application of Messaging in the car, something that will clearly distract us from the road, especially when many users receive dozens of notifications in an hour.

At least we are seeing how CarPlay grows little by little, while the WhatsApp application for the Apple Watch still does not appear, something illogical considering that its capabilities should not be much more complex than those of WhatsApp for CarPlay, another Facebook movement that puzzles us a lot with the development of the most important messaging application of the moment. So that, If you enjoy CarPlay, it is time to update WhatsApp.
