Apple CarPlay Gets Prettier and More Robust with iOS 26 Update
Apple has revealed its latest operating system, iOS 26, which includes a new-and-improved version of CarPlay. The updated Apple CarPlay has a more attractive appearance and features that are designed to be easier for drivers to use. The smartphone-mirroring software makes incoming calls less obnoxious, enables useful widgets, and makes messaging less distracting. Apple CarPlay is an essential part of many people's daily lives. Well, at least those who have a contemporary iPhone and a compatible car that allows them to run the software through its infotainment system. Luckily for most iPhone users, the vast majority of new vehicles are equipped with CarPlay, and now the ubiquitous feature has received notable updates as part of Apple's new iOS 26. A New Way to CarPlay If you're wondering how Apple's software went from the current 18.5 version to 26, don't worry, you're not losing your mind. When the tech company announced the latest iteration of its operating system yesterday during the World Wide Developers Conference (a.k.a. WWDC), it revealed a new naming scheme that transitions from the old convention to one that aligns with the year—in this case, 2026. So, what does iOS 26 change with the CarPlay user experience? Let's take a look. Apple Apple Apple Apple Apple Eric Stafford Managing Editor, News Eric Stafford's automobile addiction began before he could walk, and it has fueled his passion to write news, reviews, and more for Car and Driver since 2016. His aspiration growing up was to become a millionaire with a Jay Leno–like car collection. Apparently, getting rich is harder than social-media influencers make it seem, so he avoided financial success entirely to become an automotive journalist and drive new cars for a living. After earning a journalism degree at Central Michigan University and working at a daily newspaper, the years of basically burning money on failed project cars and lemon-flavored jalopies finally paid off when Car and Driver hired him.

Intense Russian drone attack on Kharkiv kills 2, injures 38, Ukraine says
KHARKIV - A nine-minute-long Russian drone attack on Ukraine's second largest city of Kharkiv killed at least two people and injured 38, including five children, regional officials said on Wednesday. The intense strikes with 17 drones sparked fires in 15 units of a five-storey apartment building and caused other damage in the city close to the Russian border, Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov said. "There are direct hits on multi-storey buildings, private homes, playgrounds, enterprises and public transport," Terekhov said on the Telegram messaging app. "Apartments are burning, roofs are destroyed, cars are burnt, windows are broken." A Reuters witness saw emergency rescuers helping to carry people out of damaged buildings, administering care and firefighters battling blazes in the dark. Nine of the injured, including a 2-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy, have been hospitalised, Oleh Sinehubov, the governor of the broader Kharkiv region, said on Telegram. He added that the strikes hit also a city trolley bus depot and several residential buildings. There was no immediate comment from Russia. Kharkiv, in Ukraine's northeast, withstood Russian full-scale advance in the early days of the war and has since been a frequent target of air assaults. The attack followed Russia's two biggest assaults of the war on Ukraine this week, a part of intensified bombardments that Moscow said were retaliatory measures for Kyiv's recent attacks in Russia. Both sides deny targeting civilians in the war that Russia launched on its smaller neighbour in February 2022. But thousands of civilians have died in the conflict, the vast majority of them Ukrainian. "We are holding on. We are helping each other. And we will definitely survive," Terekhov said. "Kharkiv is Ukraine. And it cannot be broken." REUTERS Join ST's Telegram channel and get the latest breaking news delivered to you.
