Good news for Apple users: Honda has now rolled out its Honda Smartphone Voice Control system in Europe for iOS as well. Previously, the app was only available for Android users.
To be honest, we found it quite remarkable that Honda initially made its Smartphone Voice Control system available only for Android phones.
Although Android has 80% of the market, which makes the choice very logical, developing an Android app is many times more complex than an iOS app, because Android has to communicate with a variety of hardware, where iOS only needs to communicate with Apple. to do.
After successfully rolling out the HSVC on Android, the system has now also been made compatible with iOS systems, iOS 14 or higher to be precise. The Honda Smartphone Voice Control system allows you to use your favorite apps while driving, including voice, texting, navigation, weather and music via the Honda Roadsync app, now available to download from the App Store .
Honda Smartphone Voice Control is standard on the new Transalp and Hornet, as well as the CB1000R, X-ADV, ADV350, Forza 750 and Forza 350. All functionality of the app can be controlled via a combination of voice and/or the toggle switch on the handlebar, so that your phone can simply remain in your jacket pocket (or pocket, or storage compartment).
