ChatGPT and Google Meet are now available on Apple's CarPlay platform, marking the debut of two major new apps on the system. These apps, launched this week, are already dominating the App Store charts in the United States, with ChatGPT ranking as the #1 free app and Google Meet at #43, outperforming apps like YouTube and Venmo. This surge highlights growing third-party developer interest in CarPlay, which had previously seen limited new app launches.

The arrival of these apps comes alongside Apple's recent CarPlay enhancements, including iOS 26.4 updates and the upcoming iOS 27 Siri improvements, signaling a revitalized focus on the platform.
