The useful things, together

One screen. The things you actually use.

iCarMode brings the information and controls you reach for during a drive into a clear, customizable dashboard.

01 / DASHBOARD

Navigation, speed and weather

Keep your route and useful driving context together instead of bouncing between separate apps.

02 / LISTEN

Music, radio and podcasts

Play Apple Music or Spotify, find internet radio stations, and keep favorite podcasts ready in a larger audio interface.

03 / CONNECT

Favorite contacts and shortcuts

Reach selected contacts, the phone keypad, Siri shortcuts and compatible navigation or audio apps from one home screen.

04 / PARK

Useful after the engine stops

Save where you parked, set a parking-meter reminder, or look for nearby coffee, fuel, parking and other places.

05 / YOUR WAY

Layouts, themes and backgrounds

Arrange the dashboard around what you use most, then choose portrait or landscape and a look that fits the car.

A practical upgrade

Keep the car. Modernize the screen.

A phone mount and iCarMode can give an older dashboard a more useful center of attention—without opening the dash or buying a new head unit.

It’s a good fit if…

  • Your car does not have CarPlay
  • You already navigate and play audio from your iPhone
  • You want a dashboard-style interface on an iPad
  • You prefer a simple, reversible upgrade

Good to know

  • iCarMode is an iOS app, not Apple CarPlay
  • A secure, legal mount is your responsibility
  • Some features rely on your device and network
  • You can keep using your existing car audio connection

Straight answers

What you need to know.

Does iCarMode add Apple CarPlay to my car?

No. iCarMode is a dashboard app that runs on your iPhone or iPad. It gives you a focused driving interface, but it does not convert the car’s system into Apple CarPlay.

Do I need to install new car hardware?

No new stereo is required. You will want a secure phone or tablet mount, plus the same charging or audio connection you normally use in your car.

Can I use it in portrait and landscape?

Yes. You can use the orientation that best fits your device, mount and dashboard.

Is it suitable for an iPad?

Yes. An iPad can be a useful choice for a larger dashboard display, provided it is installed securely and legally in your vehicle.
