Everything your CarPlay screen was missing

Widgets for CarPlay

Clock, weather, speed, your photos, your car's logo, countdowns, moon phase and more — right on the CarPlay Dashboard.

One-tap themes

Change all three Car Widgets at once. Midnight Drive, Love Mode and more — a whole new look in a second.

Your own startup sound

Hear a sound when CarPlay connects, disconnects or when you arrive home. 100+ sounds, trending memes, or your own.

AI songs & voices

Type your words and AI sings them as a song — or says them over music. Rock, gospel choir, synthwave and more.

AI designs

Turn a photo of your car into anime, neon or 3D art, or design a chrome badge for your logo widget.

Speedometer & trips

A big speedometer in km/h or mph, an automatic mileage log, where-I-parked, and Drive Mode for landscape driving.

Convoy

Road trip with friends? Everyone sees everyone on the map, live.

Drawings for your partner

Draw a little note — it shows up on their car widget. Receiving is always free.

Virtual Garage

More than one car? Each gets its own widgets, switched automatically when CarPlay connects.

Questions? Answers.

Does CarMood work with my car?

Yes, if your car or head unit supports Apple CarPlay (wired or wireless) and your iPhone runs iOS 26 or later. CarPlay widgets live on the Dashboard screen; some older or very small screens show fewer of them.

How do I add widgets to CarPlay?

Open iPhone Settings → General → CarPlay → choose your car → Widgets → Add Widgets → CarMood. In the car, swipe to the Dashboard screen — widgets are not on the screen with app icons.

How do I change the CarPlay startup sound?

CarMood sets it up with one Shortcuts automation: Automation → New Automation → CarPlay → Connects → Run Immediately → add the CarMood action “Play connected sound”. iOS plays its short chime first, your sound follows right after.

Is CarMood free?

You can try it for free: Car Widget 1 with free designs and a few free sounds. CarMood Pro unlocks everything. Cancel anytime.

Why can't I tap the widgets in the car?

That's how iOS works: CarPlay widgets are for glancing, not tapping. Change designs in the app on your iPhone.

Can I use my own sound?

Yes. Import any audio or video clip (Pro), or create one with AI: a song with your own words or a voice over music.

Is it safe to use while driving?

CarMood is built for glancing. Set everything up while parked, keep your eyes on the road and always follow local laws.

Your car. Your screen. Your sound.
