The question - Does anyone know if we'll have automatic access to new apps that are added to CarPlay? So for example, if Waze is made available to work with CarPlay, will it automatically work with older CarPlay implementations, or will we be stuck with only the apps are available at the time of original purchase? I just don't know the tech well enough to understand this.
It's the iPhone that gets updated not the car, the phone sends all date to the car via Bluetooth so as Apple updates CarPlay the new features will be sent to the cars interface also.
