As for in-vehicle WeChat, the company said that under the premise of safety, freeing hands makes driving easier and more fun.
In August 2019, Tencent CEO Pony Ma said that Tencent will cooperate with Changan Automobile to launch the in-vehicle WeChat, which is currently installed on Changan Automobile's mass production models.
Sitting in the car, the owner or passenger can control WeChat by voice; when a new message is received, the voice assistant will broadcast the current content; when a WeChat call is received, we can also say "answer" or "hang up" To choose an action.
When WeChat receives a restaurant WeChat location from a friend, the vehicle-based WeChat can quickly initiate navigation directly based on the location, thereby skipping the tedious steps of unlocking the phone, finding contacts, setting the location, and placing the phone.
These operations are different from the WeChat on the mobile phone. The WeChat car version uses voice control throughout the whole process without distracting.
The WeChat car version has functions such as message broadcast and reply, view unread messages, send messages, voice calls, etc., but will not have functions such as circle of friends, pictures, red envelopes, transfers, emoticons, applets, etc.
