Support for Apple Car Play

Are there any plans to add support for Apple Car Play to the Syvecs App?

This would be a huge functionality boost as it would allow the screen that's already present in most cars to be used for viewing the gauges.

Interesting idea, would need to look into how the flow of data would work.

Does it mirror the data / display from your iOS device?

Yes I believe so. Literally what's on the screen would be on the display. How it works is largely up to the programmer, but you could end up with something that's along the lines of what you see in the GT-R in pretty much any car that's running a Syvecs with bluetooth.

Would be pretty amazing.

There are a bunch of development docs related to it, I will take a look.

From what I have read so far it seems to be aimed at media and media control, still looking into what frameworks could possibly be used for the Syvecs app.
