They play it over the car’s stereo. It puts it on a big screen that is right there so you don’t have to pick up your phone to look at the map to see how far up a turn is coming. It integrates with the car’s dashboard, shows upcoming turns and caller ID in the gauge cluster. The music and phone controls tie in to my steering wheel controls. It makes it legal to use those things on your phone since you’re not having to hold it.
It’s one of those things where most people don’t realize how much more convenient it is until they’ve used it for a while.
It’s still a distraction to use while driving, but people are using it regardless, so might as well do it in a way that makes it less distracting.
