We describe the rationale, the design and development of an iOS framework to enhance the end user experience of car-related apps. The car framework fuses the smartphone sensors' raw data to detect user behaviour and car events, and provides relevant and timely information that an app can use to relief the user from manually inputting data and to foster implicit interaction. Thus, app developers can focus on user needs and UX rather than on code complexity. We show how detected events map common needs of car-related apps.
