Send and Receive Text Messages with Apple CarPlay
Apple CarPlay created a necessary convenience, connectivity, and safety feature all in one. It's a part of their messaging system that allows you to use the power of your voice to send and receive text messages while driving. There's never a need - or excuse - to remove your hands from the steering wheel. You tell the system that you want to send a text message, and it sends it. Then you listen to any received text messages during your commute.
How to Send and Receive Text Messages
Apple CarPlay allows you to send and receive text messages on your Hyundai vehicle. The simplicity of this system is built-in with Apple's voice recognition technology that has been around on their smartphones for a while; now, you get the same significant advantages on Apple CarPlay.
An example would be: you're driving along and you want to text your mom that you're 5 miles away from arriving at her house. You click a button on your steering wheel and say, "Send a text message to [contact name]... [say your message]." You will get a confirmation asking if you're ready to send. If you say yes, then it will send the text messages.
Click another button to read messages. Just click the button and say, "Read messages." You're done! It might sound painlessly simple, but that's because it is painlessly quick and straightforward. Apple and Hyundai coordinate and provide this feature because they know how dangerous texting and driving is when you're physically picking up a phone and trying to type out a message.
Now you never have to endanger anyone's life on the road to send a text message or receive one. You communicate with your vehicle by voice and it obeys your every command. If only the people in your life were quite that cooperative when you needed to get something done in a hurry. While people will never be that cooperative or collaborative, your Apple CarPlay text messaging system is reachable by voice and is cooperative whenever you need to get a message sent or read.
