Honda’s Integrating FACEBOOK & YELP In New Accord And Crosstour
Honda is all set to make new offering in the market by launching HONDALINK app & service in new Accord, Crosstour and future vehicles under the partnership with Harman International. This service would enable the driver to listen to a variety of Internet-based stations, featuring everything from Slacker radio to Yelp listings of nearby restaurants. However the key is it will also provide Facebook integration.
All is required, a HondaLink app in your iPhone or Android device, you will run the app and connect it to the car via Bluetooth. Once done with this, the app will deliver a driver’s own Facebook news feed, including friends’ status updates as audio feeds. However, the driver won’t be able to update his own status. Moreover, HondaLink also uses the car’s GPS location to find nearby restaurants for the Yelp audio feeds. It provides you with two options one is ‘Hungary’ and the other one is ‘Coffee’. You will have to trade off between the two via touch screen display and then, Yelp will inform you about the nearby restaurants and cafes accordingly. Though the app is similar to AHA app but this time it is enriched with more promising features to be look forward at.
