session, not a Siri session, and it will not function
with Apple CarPlay®.
Music
Apple CarPlay® allows you to access all
your artists, playlists, and music from

podcasts, and more.

voice. You can also touch the Navigation icon in
Apple CarPlay® to access Apple® Maps.

and press the new Apple CarPlay® icon that
replaces your “Phone” icon on the main menu bar
to begin Apple CarPlay®. Push and hold the VR
