  • Seriously?

    A monthly subscription to use your app? Let me just buy the dang thing and be done with it.
  • So Stupid!!! DO NOT BUY!!!

    It only lets you change settings. Worthless. I mean, unless you like staring at icons, then it is worth it. Otherwise, Don’t get.
  • Literally useless without the subscription

    If you like looking at icons and that’s it this is the app for you! Because that’s all you get to do in the free version, if you decide to touch one of the icon bubbles it’ll pop up “Discover CarOS” which means pay us. Oh yea and they have a problem with their built in google maps, it doesn’t load anything. Good luck !

  • Not worth it

    Needs to be rebuilt. Google maps won’t work. If you like Waze - go for it. Other than that, it looks the same as the applications already on your phone. This app functions as shortcuts to those apps. Nice concept but nothing to see here.
  • Total rip off

    Just big icons. Offers no real functionality. Can’t even use navigation.
  • Not hands free at all

    I got this app thinking I could use it like CarPlay, but it’s far from that. ( I still don’t understand why Apple doesn’t come out with CarPlay for iPhone). Anyway, you dictate a text and have to press send to send it and it goes to your iMessage app to really send it. Incoming texts are not read out over the speaker. You still need to take your eyes off the road to read the text. The interface is nice, but useless.

  • Rip off

    Bad. Subscribed but still can’t access anything except free version. Now I have to fight to get money back and stop billing. Not ready.
  • Good idea but....

    Free version offers no real functionality other than maps and to take a look around. Advice to the developer, offer a free fully-functional version for 30-day trial and then see if people want to pay. You’re not going to get any traction trying to charge up front, it also feels like it’s a beta and not full release.

  • Am I missing something?

    I’ve worked with this app for one day and there is no way for me to control this app using my voice/ Siri from within the app. Should the whole point in using an app called caros be a hands free one? We read stories in the news about a driver receiving a ticket for using their phone in the McDonald’s drive thru. Or skipping to the next track on the phone while in a dash mounted holder. I don’t get it???

  • A good idea, not well executed

    While the author should be commended for attempting to write a standalone replacement for CarPlay, the other reviewers are right: It’s not easy to write such an app and the author has not succeeded. There are very few apps that I’ve deleted immediately after trying them, but this is one of them.
