  • @s.mtambo6712
    @s.mtambo6712 Před 25 dny +1

    I been able to do this on my Volvo with Android automotive - is this just for casting since developers don't want to port their apps? I guess that's cool, but honestly if I have CZcams already it's not that useful. Amazon Prime has an app and I've only used it twice in the whole year so that says something about how often I'm parked for long enough to bother with that type of content

  • @jeremyjamesenos
    @jeremyjamesenos Před 25 dny +2

    Was so excited about this... Until- the bit about the data connection MUST be through Rivian LTE? That makes zero sense and should be the other way around. So now I have to pay for unlimited data on two separate services? (cell and rivian)
    I'm hopeful that the reporting is wrong and that this would work w/ either device set as the hotspot server.

    • @briantong

      ​@@CityLifeinAmericaFrom my understanding, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay is consistent across vehicles. It's Android Automotive that's an actual OS and is being fragmented by some vehicles getting Cast and others not. I think Apple's aversion to fragmentation is what's delaying their next generation of CarPlay.

    • @larock0wns
      @larock0wns Před 25 dny

      This isn't a Google Fragmentation issue, this is a Rivian choice on what parts of Android Automotive they are choosing to use and not use. That would be like saying MacOS has a fragmentation issue because your IT dept disables features on your MacBook.

      Wrong. They are ahead of their path to profitability and forecasted the losses from day 1. They have years of cash on hand even with losses. Try to be better informed.
