Abstract
The digital and automotive application ecosystems have been rapidly transformed by augmented reality (AR). Mobile app augmentation in the automotive sector has shown a lot of potential in terms of improving user engagement and the overall experience. Exploring the impact of augmented reality on user engagement, advantages, problems, and future possibilities in automotive mobile apps is the focus of this research. With the use of augmented reality (AR) technology integrated into automobile smartphone applications, users may enjoy real-time experiences, navigational assistance, and virtual vehicle customisation. The most essential benefit of all of these additions is the improvement they bring to user engagement and happiness. By superimposing digital information over the user's actual surroundings, the technology creates an immersive and natural experience. It has also covered the difficulties of implementing automotive applications, such as the high cost of developing robust technology and concerns about user privacy. On the other hand, with the advent of new affordances, the future seems bright for the widespread use of augmented reality technology. Because of this, augmented reality (AR) for automotive mobile apps has a promising future in terms of innovation and integration across different parts of the user experience. That is why augmented reality (AR) in car applications greatly improves the quality of life for the user. Its real-time interaction features cater to users' wants and preferences, greatly improving the overall user experience. As augmented reality develops further, it will play an increasingly important role in the car sector, opening up a wide range of possibilities for consumer engagement and happiness.
