Because that's what you're used to. Your personal smartphone apps – like almost all content – are transferred to the media display.

Using the interface, you can control numerous functions in exactly the same way as you are used to on your smartphone. And things are even easier with voice control. Moreover, all content is reworked so that it is presented in the best possible way and very clearly laid out on the media display. So that nothing distracts you and you stay safe on the road at all times.
Before purchasing, please check compatibility of your smartphone with the Apple™ CarPlay™ or Android Auto™ standard. In addition to the technical requirements in the vehicle, this is essential for using Smartphone Integration. Please see the FAQ section for further details
