Great news for drivers who rely on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto — a powerful new app has joined the ecosystem, offering a huge productivity boost for delivery professionals and multitaskers on the go.
Circuit Route Planner: Optimized Navigation for Multi-Stop Routes
Circuit Route Planner is now fully compatible with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, bringing smart multi-stop route optimization directly to your car’s dashboard.
Unlike traditional navigation apps like Google Maps or Apple Maps, Circuit is specifically designed for delivery drivers, field service agents, and anyone who needs to make multiple stops in a single trip. With Circuit, you can:
-
Add multiple delivery addresses
-
Automatically optimize the most efficient route
-
Save time, reduce fuel use, and increase delivery performance
This app removes the hassle of manual route planning — just set your stops in the mobile app, and Circuit handles the rest.
How Circuit Works on CarPlay and Android Auto
While Circuit is now supported on both in-car platforms, it works a little differently from standard apps:
-
Create and optimize your route on your smartphone using the Circuit app.
-
Connect your phone to your car via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.
-
The in-car system will display a streamlined version of your route on the dashboard, allowing you to follow the path easily on a larger screen.
To try it out, simply download or update the latest version of the Circuit app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
Coming Soon: Video Apps, Games, and Web Browsers
Circuit isn't the only exciting update. Google and Apple are both working to expand app categories available on Android Auto and CarPlay. Here’s what’s on the horizon:
-
Video apps (like YouTube) will soon be available for in-car use while parked
-
Mobile games, including titles like Angry Birds and Candy Crush, are already supported on Android Auto with Android 15
-
Web browsers, such as Google Chrome and Vivaldi, are expected to join the list soon
These updates follow the trend toward making infotainment systems smarter, more useful, and customizable — turning your car into an extension of your digital life.
Why This Matters for Car Buyers
According to Apple, 79% of new-car buyers in the U.S. consider CarPlay a “must-have” feature. Google estimates that over 250 million vehicles on the road are compatible with Android Auto.
As more developers bring their apps to these platforms, and as features like Circuit Route Planner go live, CarPlay and Android Auto become even more essential tools — not just for convenience, but also for efficiency and safety.
