If you&#8217;re running the latest version of both iOS and the ChatGPT app, and own a CarPlay-compatible vehicle, you can check out the experience. To get started, download all the necessary software, connect your iPhone to CarPlay and select &#8220;New voice chat&#8221; from ChatGPT. When the in-app text indicates ChatGPT is &#8220;listening,&#8221; you can start a conversation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">There are some notable limitations to using ChatGPT Voice with CarPlay. For one, OpenAI&#8217;s chatbot can&#8217;t control car functions. If you want to adjust the cabin temperature or skip tracks, you&#8217;ll still need Siri for those tasks. Due to Apple&#8217;s restrictions, you also can&#8217;t start using ChatGPT through a wake word like you can Siri. For example, to resume a previous conversation,\u00a0you need to open the ChatGPT app from CarPlay and tap a recent or pinned chat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">With those limitations in mind, OpenAI suggests you can use Voice mode to get how-to advice, brainstorm ideas and practice languages.
