WhatsApp, the most used messaging application on the planet, finally has support for Apple's CarPlay system, which is integrated into a variety of cars. The WhatsApp application has started to appear in the CarPlay systems of some of the users who use the system in the car, but the application has limited functionality.
According to those who tested WhatsApp in CarPlay, the application for cars only allows writing messages using the system of writing after dictation supported by Siri. The WhatsApp application in CarPlay does not allow viewing a list of conversations from the platform, but displays notifications when you receive a new message, which can be read by Siri.
WhatsApp is the first major messaging app to have an app available for CarPlay, with app developers being very limited in what they can offer for cars. Apple greatly restricts the ability to offer important functions for CarPlay, so WhatsApp does not allow viewing a list of messages available on the iPhone, for example.
WhatsApp will certainly set the tone for the implementation of support for other similar applications in CarPlay, and the next important thing that could reach there would be Facebook Messenger. When this will happen, no one knows, but if you have CarPlay in your car and use WhatsApp, then you should be able to use the application starting today.
