No, I don’t want 40" touch screens mounted to the dash of my car nor do I want corpo goons driving my car.

But surely you want incessant ads every time the car is stopped right?

This red light is brought to you by Raid Shadow Legends…

Mr. Owens, I have detected that I accidentally ran over a 67 year old woman, her pet Chihuahua and a little girl approximately 5 years, 6 months, 3 days and six hours old. I will shut down now for the authorities to correctly apply justice corrections. But first I need to backup because we already ran a red light. Tesla is hereby not responsible since you had your hands at the wheel during the accident. Sorry.

Title gore?

Yeah, I don’t understand what that’s trying to say. BlackBerry got crushed by Apple and Google, that part is true…

But who’s in whose sights? Are Apple and Google in BlackBerry’s sights? Or is BlackBerry back in Apple and Google’s sights to be crushed again.

It’s a horrible title.

You know how your infotainment is fast to start up, works well and is only buggy when using CarPlay/AndroidAuto? Well now expect only the CarPlay/AA experience.

QNX is a great OS, and it’s unfortunate that instead of getting better integration, we’re getting whatever Google and Apple shovels at the auto industry.

To be honest, I haven’t had many issues with AA. My wife’s car has AA and it’s been better than the mutant abortion of a manufacturer-designed interface that my older car has.

So much this. I’ve driven a lot of Volkswagen group cars. Their software was great (built on QNX). Now only the real-time canbus part of the car runs on QNX (and is still rock solid) while the entertainment part runs on android and is a train wreck; crashes at least once/day.

Maybe I’m a lone voice here, but my Skoda has QNX and it’s…not very good? It takes an age to start up, and an age to load navigation mode to a point where it’s ready to start being used. Bluetooth integration is rudimentary (in the context of the age of the vehicle) and unpredictable. The touch UI is spongy and easy to make mistakes, even if you’re the passenger giving it your full undivided attention. The voice command system is almost unusable.

It’s not terrible, don’t get me wrong. But I don’t understand why anyone would be writing any lovesongs about it.

Brkdncr ,

The OE had a lot of input on how QNX was built into their vehicles. It’s not a turn-key system that they buy off the shelf from blackberry. I’m honestly surprised BB didn’t start putting their name on some of the good implementations.

A version of QNX (made by Blackberry) is in my Volkswagen. It’s quick, noninvasive, and still works well despite my removal of the 4G comm box that connected it to the Internet. I’d truly miss QNX if it disappeared.

Num10ck ,

the UI of that was from an aquisition of The Astonishing Tribe (TAT), a user interface design company based in Malmö, Sweden, was acquired by the company on December 2, 2010.[183][184] With a history of creating user interfaces and applications for mobile, TAT contributed heavily to the user experience of BlackBerry 10 as well as the development of its GUI framework, Cascades.

peskywarrior ,

I miss BB10 (maybe the physical device more than the OS lol) dearly! That’s pretty neat to know both interfaces were derived from the same source, I knew I noticed a lot of similarities!

TonyOstrich ,

There are still base features of BB10 that are not native on iOS or Android (I have the former for work and the latter for my personal). It probably sounds trivial, but I liked being able to have the phone automatically switch sound profiles bases on stuff in the calendar. Never had to remember to switch my phone to vibrate when going from the factory floor to a meeting.

Save us, Blackberry! You’re our only hope! (I am serious here)
