What does “properly” mean in this context? In my experience, every android auto -supporting car is way worse than Tesla.
Well the way he framed it. As in you still need your phone in an holder. I figured you can’t properly control your music from Tesla. Can’t easily make calls, Bad support for other apps. I’ve never really experienced a Tesla properly, and I would way too ashamed to do so nowadays. So I don’t really know the experience very well.
I mean, infotainment is the one thing where they’re not TOO bad. I think you can just get native apps for Spotify and Apple Music. No Waze though.
You don’t need your phone anywhere, it’s just not Android auto. You can make phone calls through your phone via voice, it can play music from your phone, but there’s limited controls there to control the phone, or you can just use any of their built in music apps with full voice and touch screen controls. I think you can even do voice to text messages or have text messages read to you, but I’m not 100% sure on that one. There’s something about text messages though. You can share a map location from your phone directly to the car.
