CarPlay - is it feasible?

Hi,

I have an app that uses GPS, to locate you, then retrieves a unique ID and then shows you:

  • Location Name
  • Unique ID
  • Latitude & Longitude

As you move around, this information is updated within the apps UI. The UI is just a card, with no map and the user is unable to change what is displayed, without moving location.

I am wanting to integrate with CarPlay, so the users don't need to touch their device while in a moving car.

Am I able do the following within the CarPlay Guidelines?,

  • Display the unique ID
  • Update the ID as the car moves
  • Record a distance between two unique ID's (as the car is moving via a "Start" & "Stop" button)

When I look at the CarPlay developer documentation, there is no clear guide on what template to use. Navigation or POI. There is also limited guidance on CarPlay development, so any tips/advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Hayden
