🚀 Today, we're diving into an eye-catching trend dominating social media - and it might not be the best for your driving experience! Search for "pink CarPlay" on TikTok to find a sea of videos from the last six months, all flaunting and demoing the pinkified CarPlay interface. One popular post sported an impressive 545,000 likes 🔥. Some call it a hack, but it's really all about misunderstanding and misusing the theme and color filter settings - apparently style trumps safety in this instance!
🤔 This trend isn't some new feature dropping in iOS 26, it's been around since iOS 18! And guess what? You can customize your iPhone to match your vibrant car display. But why stop there, right? World domination isn't far behind if you also tweak your TV's color settings.
🚨 But what about safety? The designers behind infotainment software have legibility in mind, using clear colors, text, and symbols to convey information efficiently. And let's face it - a pinked-out, overly saturated screen isn't going to help keep your attention on the road while you're driving a 5,000-pound SUV at top speed 😖.
🛑 For example, setting the Waze display to bubblegum pink isn't just quirky - it's dangerous. These pink titans of the internet may simply love attention-grabbing screens in cars, but for most of us, the focus needs to be on staying safe on the road! One Instagram influencer even declared, "well now I HAVE TO INSTALL A CARPLAY IN MY CAR" 😂. Sorry to rain on your parade, but that's not exactly how it works.
