Google’s Gemini app is now available in Apple CarPlay.

The AI chatbot’s dedicated app was already available in cars with Google built-in, as well as Android Auto. Now CarPlay users who prefer Google’s chatbot to Siri can use Gemini to manage their calendar or ask questions about the trip ahead. Gemini was already available through Google Maps, and now Apple has made space for it in the main CarPlay display too.

Apple hardware vp Johny Srouji reportedly tells staff β€œI don’t plan on leaving anytime soon.”

After a string of exec departures from Apple, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported a few days ago that Srouji, who oversees the chips that have helped iPhones, Macs, and other devices lead their categories, had discussed leaving for another company. Today, Gurman reports the exec sought to calm employees, sending a message to his division that said β€œI love my team, and I love my job at Apple, and I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon.” [Link: Apple Chip Chief Tells Staff He’s Not Leaving β€˜Anytime Soon’ | https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-08/apple-chip-chief-tells-staff-he-s-not-leaving-anytime-soon | Bloomberg]

Joanna Stern bullied Apple into a HomeView update already.

You can’t use your voice to unlock doors or open garage doors on the new HomeView because Apple is worried that… someone might shout commands into your home from outside? Joanna Stern got Apple to admit that’s a bit silly; she says the company told her a software update next month will open things up.
