Reply to Live Weather Radar Overlay in CarPlay Maps
Thanks for the guidance! I’ve submitted both ideas through the Feedback Assistant as enhancement requests: • Live Weather Radar Overlay in CarPlay Maps: FB19118577 • Forecast-Aware Radar Overlay (based on ETA): FB19119579 Both are focused on improving driver safety and awareness by integrating radar visibility directly into the CarPlay Maps experience — including predictive radar based on your future location along a route. Appreciate the response and hope others will consider submitting similar feedback if they support the idea!

I had another idea that builds on this concept — I’d love your thoughts on it. What if the radar overlay in CarPlay wasn’t just live, but actually forecasted based on your ETA? Example: Let’s say you’re leaving on a 3-hour trip and there’s a storm expected near your destination in 2 hours. Even though it’s not raining there yet, the CarPlay map would show radar activity in that area based on the time you’ll arrive, not just what’s happening right now. So instead of just displaying current weather, the radar would be time-shifted to show what the weather will likely be when you’re driving through each part of your route. It would give you a heads-up before you drive into rough conditions — super helpful for long drives, road trips, or emergency response work. I think this could be a powerful evolution of the original idea, especially if CarPlay used forecast data from the Weather app (via WeatherKit) to make it happen. Let me know what you think — and if you like the idea, feel free to submit it via Feedback Assistant too so it gains more traction!
