Also being able to control everything via Siri with actually competent speech recognition is a godsend compared to the several minutes of shouting in various accents that most in-built voice control systems require. The need for internet access is slightly irritating however.

You mean Siri is actually usable while driving? Is there a “trick” to this? I’ve yet to have it work a single time, and have just given up, after (in your own words) shouting at the car.

  In my experience Siri over CarPlay is significantly more reliable (in that it understands me better over road noise) than Siri over Bluetooth audio (in both cases using the mic/speakers built into the car). FWIW phone calls also sound clearer when plugged in via USB. I’m guessing it’s because of poor audio quality for voice over Bluetooth in at least the cars I tried.

  Hold the home button briefly (lower-left corner) for Siri on CarPlay. It’s actually fantastic.
