Ashad been promised , so GM has delivered : a demonstration of what it ’s care to have 4 gravitational constant LTE — and apps , so many apps — in your railway car . Angry Birds in your splasher might help your road rage , but is it dependable ?

Well sure , according to GM ’s Nick Pudar , who talked me through some of the finer point of GM ’s machine-accessible car time to come , as long as it ’s not the number one wood who ’s playing it ( or scrolling through YouTube videos , or Yelping , or just broadly goldbrick around while you should n’t ) . But while the 4 gramme vehicle is virtuous concept right now — there ’s no clientele model in place yet , much less , presumably , an easy means to scale production — a dashboard app coup d’etat is right around the corner . Because GM is opening up its API to developers , albeit on a modified scale leaf .
The only dev that participated in tonight ’s announcement was Relay Rides , a car - sharing service that will let you use a mobile app to unlock OnStar - quipped cars . But Pudar image a broad image of possibilities for in - car applications ; from logistics for cars with heavy fleets , to location - based eating house recommendations , to text notifications if a car is low on gas . As for your first question ( or at least mine ) ? Giving developer accession to your auto is n’t as dangerous as it might sound ; apps do n’t have any accession to your car right away , but alternatively engage through GM ’s secured cloud .
Apps - in - cars still seems to me an instance of something that ’s been done just for the sake of doing it , but who knows ? teem Netflix to a back tush of clustering tittering tweens may not be the worst idea . [ OnStar ]
