The first beta of iOS 18.4 is out, and it brings along a handy tweak for CarPlay.

CarPlay can now show a third row of icons instead of just two. This feature is perfect for cars with larger screens, like some models of the Toyota Tundra, which has an impressive 14-inch display.

Meanwhile, in a Honda Civic with a smaller 9-inch screen, users still see only two rows of four icons.

This update might seem minor, but it helps users access more apps quickly without flipping through pages. It’s all about making the experience smoother for drivers.

We can expect the public release of iOS 18.4 in early April after beta testing concludes.
