Widgets & CarPlay
Axlerun reaches beyond the app — home-screen widgets, CarPlay, and a live trip card on your lock screen. Android Auto is out of the current Android build.
Axlerun isn't only the app you open — it shows up where it's useful: on your home screen, in the car, and on your lock screen while a trip records. These are native phone features, so they need a real device (not a simulator).
What's available
Home-screen widgets — key numbers and shortcuts at a glance, without opening the app.
CarPlay — a pared-back Axlerun on the car's head unit for while you're driving: the nearest fuel and EV charging, the active trip and recent trips.
A live trip card — on iPhone, a Live Activity and Dynamic Island; on Android, a lock-screen Live Update — showing a trip while it records.
Not all of it sits on the same plan. Home-screen widgets need Cruise; the fuel & EV locator and the live trip card are free on every plan, including Drive, because they belong to recording and to getting you to a bowser rather than to the paid extras.
Android Auto is not in the current Android build. It was taken out of release 1.7.0 while a fix for the signed-out screens is verified, so the Android app is phone-only for now. The locator returns to the head unit in a following release; CarPlay is unaffected.
The live trip card is opt-in. Turn on Show live trip on lock screen in the Trip Logging settings. Widgets are added the usual way your phone adds any widget, and CarPlay appears once your iPhone is connected to the car.
