Important: These vehicles may not be available in all regions. Some features for cars with Google apps and services built-in such as calls, texts, or navigation require a connection to the internet to work fully. For full functionality, you’ll need a mobile data plan for your car from your vehicle’s manufacturer.
If you don’t have a mobile data plan in your car
In some cars, you may be able to access many built-in apps and services using a hotspot from your phone.
Connect through a mobile hotspot
Get information for using a hotspot:
- with an Android phone.
- with an iPhone.
Learn about the features available when you use Google apps and services built into your car without a mobile data plan.
Important: Some mobile carriers limit or charge extra when you share data with a hotspot. We recommend that you check with your carrier.
Tip: If the Google apps built into your car do not work as they should while connected with a mobile hotspot, update them to the latest versions through Google Play. That may fix the issue. If you cannot connect with a mobile hotspot in your car, hotspot connections may not be supported in your car model. Please contact your vehicle’s manufacturer for more information.
