Apple Carplay or Android Auto?
I have the Android auto and I think the Apple carplay might have more options. Just curious because I might have to get a new phone. Is there a thread on this already? If so post it. Thanks.

In my opinion they are essentially the same. Most of the differences are superficial with the exception that with Android Auto you can use either Google Maps or Waze, whereas with CarPlay you only get Apple Maps.

I use Google maps mostly, and occasionally Waze. Waze has less maps and locations for remote areas.
I have never used Apple products. Android phones are cheaper.

I use CarPlay with my new iPhone 7 Plus. Works great!

I can tell you from personal experience that Google Assistant it's ridiculously better than Siri. It makes a huge difference in the usability in the truck. My wife is getting rid of her iPhone 7 and getting a Pixel 2 because it's so frustrating.
