REMOTE CONTROL: The Porsche Car Connect for Apple Watch allows users to lock and unlock the car's doors remotely.
Even before the launch of the much-hyped wearable, car makers were developing dedicated Apple Watch apps to allow owners to control certain car features remotely. BMW and Porsche are among the brands leading the charge.
Also available for Android and iOS, the BMW i Remote is designed for owners of the BMW i3 all-electric city car and the BMW i8 hybrid sports car. The app allows users to view battery details, check whether the doors are locked, and even control the cabin temperature remotely.
