Google Expands Gemini AI Assistant to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Platforms
Google has expanded its Gemini AI assistant integration to in-car platforms, introducing voice-based navigation features in Google Maps for Apple CarPlay and Personal Intelligence capabilities in Android Auto. The CarPlay update allows users to interact with Gemini for multi-step navigation requests and traffic reporting, currently available in the US with a global rollout planned. Meanwhile, Android Auto users globally (excluding certain regions) can access personalized, context-aware AI responses using data from Google apps, with user consent required for personal data access. These updates enhance hands-free navigation and AI assistance across platforms.
