Prioritizing Safety Through Audio-First Design

Safety is the foundation of this feature. To prevent distraction, Google Meet on CarPlay operates in an audio-only format. Your camera is automatically disabled upon joining a call, allowing you to engage in discussions while keeping your eyes firmly on the road. It is the perfect balance between staying informed and maintaining driving safety.
