I remember when Waze worked natively in the browser back in 2018. Supposedly Google disabled that functionality on their end. I'd love to get Waze back to show reported police locations but not upgrading the original Model3 just yet. Thank for showing us what it can do!

I have one of those second displays They wire in directly into your Tesla And it does display Car door opening Tire pressure And your speed And can be controlled with your wheel

It’s pretty interesting mine connects to Bluetooth automatically when I enter my model X I just have to Flick on the WiFi. And everything runs smoothly What year Tesla do you have ? Maybe it’s a older model

The main thing I want is to be able to use the steering wheel voice button to command Google assistant, as well as having regular Google maps navigation that integrates with the full self driving feature, so this won't be much better than having my phone connected via Bluetooth with a mount to keep it easily visible and accessible.

Hey Terry, just browsing KZfaq, I somehow came up with your video. I don’t have this CarPlay box, but I think I have a solution to fix your problem. I didn’t want to pay for Tesla’s premium connectivity so I bought a small USB hub for the glove box (so I can still use sentry mode with the USB stick plugged in to it) a USB extension cord and a cheap 4G LTE modem stick that I ran up in the A pillar on the passenger side. My phone contract includes up to 10 Sim cards so I can share my data etc. My Tesla is set up to connect to the Wi-Fi of the 4G modem stick. So all I have to do is before I leave my house door is open the Tesla app (to wake the car up which will activate the USB ports when sentry mode is off) and close it again. By the time I get to the car and sit down the car is already connected to the Wi-Fi of the LTE stick. Maybe that could work for you?

Hi Terry great video as always. I’ve followed you since you helped with the SIRI shortcuts for my model S. Question … there is another company called Tlyard that has a similar device to the one you’re using. Have you seen any comparison between the two. I’m torn between the two devices at the moment Just wondering. Thank you again for doing this review as I keep seeing this one advertised on social media, but no one had done an actual review.

Looks like it works great but I wished Tesla would just make some sort of App Store to developers create their own programs for the car

Good news is the 2024 model 3 and model y made android auto and car play way easier

How can we enable the browser while driving? Doesn’t work in Australia

Missed a question though: can you still use your phone separately while connected?

I think I’m gonna try this… I need Elon to get with the program (CarPlay)! 😆

Could you just say “Siri” to activate voice commands too? For hands free

Hot to get fullscreen navigation,without see what autopilot see?

installation starts here okay i’m trying to skip through the video - I have to purchase something to do this?!? 👀

is the mirroring function any good?

Doing it on the browser is crap and hacky. Wish they could figure out a way without browser.

Want to know if it will work on Intel based MCU2.. S or X.

Do you need Hotspot for this to work?

👍👍😎✌️🤟

I had a very different, terrible, experience. Very janky and unreliable. The box needs two connections - both a Wi-Fi to the Tesla and a Bluetooth to share the Internet on your phone. That means, actually, the Internet speed and reliability of your connection is actually controlled by the Bluetooth link to your phone. After it gets stuck and you end up spending 15 minutes rebooting your phone, re-pairing the bluetooth, and even having to do a soft reboot of the Tesla itself (when the web browser locks up) it quickly becomes a PITA and not worth the trouble. Let's put a pin in this and see how you feel in another month or so? Also, the Wi-Fi is only used for the website this company (and its competitors) provide to hack the web browser to bring up the CarPlay screen. So you are also totally dependent on the website being online from this Asian/offshore company.

Waze is not good
