2026-06-24
Summer road trip season is here, and every mile just got a lot more fun in a GM vehicle.
With OnStar connectivity and our newest software updates, vehicles with Google built-in can now unlock over 200 new apps on Google Play from the center display. Plus, front and rear passenger screens in GM SUVs come loaded with even more apps and services, serving up a massive catalog of movies, shows, songs, podcasts, and live radio and TV channels. That means everyone gets their own watchlist and playlist for no-compromise content on the go.

The latest selection of in-vehicle apps on Google Play put a wide range of streaming, gaming, and interactive content directly on the center display — so when you’re parked, it’s easy to dive into that show everyone’s talking about, take on a crossword puzzle, or tune into the game. From on-demand titles through Dish Anywhere to game apps where you can shoot hoops, play chess, or rack up wins in solitaire and mahjong, there’s always something new to try.
The lineup on Google Play is always expanding, making it effortless to bring your favorite mobile apps along for the ride, fully optimized for your vehicle’s screen.
Entertainment in motion
For passengers in GM’s premium SUVs, the show goes on — whether you’re parked or cruising. A solid roster of streaming services like AMC+, Disney+, Hulu, Tubi, TuneIn, ViX, YouTube, and YouTube Kids let front- and rear- seat passengers enjoy content on their own screens. Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, SiriusXM, and Spotify are coming soon, giving passengers access to a broader mix of stations, playlists, and personalized listening options.
Don’t forget headphones. With one car and multiple vibes, they help keep the peace across every seat on those long summer drives.
