Apple's HomeView to use CarPlay apps instead of an App Store

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Apple's new HomeView multimedia hub will not feature a dedicated App Store. Instead, it will leverage compatible third-party applications that are already designed for CarPlay. This means users can access apps like Spotify and Deezer on HomeView, provided their iPhone is nearby and connected. While this approach requires minimal effort for existing CarPlay app developers, it may limit the adoption of new apps, especially for video streaming services like Netflix or YouTube, which currently lack CarPlay support.
