Overview
- Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports Tesla still plans to add CarPlay but has not set a launch date.
- Testing found turn‑by‑turn directions from Tesla’s navigation could desynchronize with Apple Maps during autonomous driving.
- Apple implemented engineering changes in a subsequent iOS 26 update to align Maps behavior with Tesla’s system.
- Apple says 74% of iPhones from the last four years are on iOS 26, yet the share on the specific patched sub‑release remains unclear.
- CarPlay is expected to run in a window within Tesla’s interface and will not integrate with features such as Full Self‑Driving.
