For those who want to check the message without being disrupted, getting a smartphone application reading the message out loud is the way to go.

DS International, a leading car audio maker in Korea with the JB.lap brand, has launched an app “BT Reader” through Google Play app market on March 3. The app reads SNS or SMS messages upon their arrival through its Bluetooth-equipped car audio.
