googleplaymusicGoogle's music subscription service, Google Play Music, now has a dedicated CarPlay app available, according to comments shared on reddit. That means Google Play Music users who own a vehicle equipped with CarPlay can access their music directly through the CarPlay interface when an iPhone is connected to the car.

The Google Play Music CarPlay app is sectioned off into Home, Recents, Music Library, and Stations, giving subscribers access to recommendations, their own custom playlists, radio selections, and more.

Google Play Music is the first Google-made app to be available for CarPlay, and it joins music apps from services like Pandora, Amazon, and Spotify.

Google Play Music allows users to store up to 50,000 songs and listen to ad-supported radio stations for free. With a premium account, priced at $9.99 per month, users can listen to more than 40 million on-demand streaming songs without advertisements.

Google Play Music can be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

Waze would be a better next app, IMO. Can't believe it's not converted already.

I'd be much happier if they offered support for Google Maps instead. I can't trust Apple Maps at all right now! I'm sure apple doesn't want you using Google Maps in the car tho! Which makes no sense... it's a platform that supports 3rd party apps so open all of them up. Or maybe google just doesn't want to add it..(which would be hard to believe)

Google generally takes a long time to make updates like this. I've had a 4th gen AppleTV since release and I'd love to have access to a Google Play Music app on TVos, but it hasn't materialized yet.
