Apple CarPlay allows you to listen to your incoming text messages while also being able to reply or initiate a new text message – all while keeping your hands on the wheel.
Here is how to send a text message from the Apple CarPlay screen:
Select MESSAGES …
Then press the NEW MESSAGE button at the top and Siri will help you.
[SIRI SAYS: “To whom should I send your message?”]
“Lisa Smith”
[SIRI SAYS: “What do you want to say?”]
“How about some tennis tomorrow?”
[SIRI SAYS: “Your message to Lisa Smith says: How about some tennis tomorrow?” Are you ready to send your message?]
“Yes”
[SIRI SAYS: “I’ll send your message.”]
Incoming text notifications are displayed with an indicator on the MESSAGES button on the home screen or next to the contacts name when in MESSAGES.
Press the MESSAGE button and then press the contact to listen to the text:
[SIRI SAYS: “Lisa says: Sounds like a great idea.
SIRI SAYS: Do you want to reply?]
“No.”
Siri walks you through the entire process.
You can also use the on-screen buttons to reply … skip … review … change … and send messages.
Be aware that if you use the Apple CarPlay touchscreen to read a message back or to dictate a message, you won’t see the message thread on your Apple CarPlay screen. This is to help prevent distractions while you’re driving.

Now let’s review some best practices:
First, make sure your iPhone operating system is current and up to date.
Second, make sure Siri is turned on.
Third, ensure your phone’s Bluetooth is turned on for the initial connection.
