Some observations from the screenshot:
* The screen resolution of iOS Car is 800x480 px - a lower resolution than the iPhone 4 (960x640 px).
* The "home" button is part of the touch screen like on Android (tablets).
- crishoj 13y agoWould you expect to see the same resolution on a secondary, externally connected screen? Obviously, this design has to be able to accommodate to a wide range of screen resolutions and formats.
- frik 13y agoFor historical reasons iOS was very inflexible in regards to the screen resolution. To increase the resolution they had to double the resolution (known as retina). So iOS Car will not support all iOS apps. Well you don't want to play e.g. "Flappy Bird" while driving a car anyway ;) As the bottom "info/command bar" is part of the screen, maybe the remaining area that is available for apps has the same ratio as older iPhone devices.
