I installed and it is very fast for me. I have Hw 4.0 . If might be slow if you have older HW 3.0 hardware.
Also, there is default settings to send carplay as. “Picture “ . If you change that to “Video” it will be faster. Also change frame rate to “Fast”. He didn’t cover these things in Review.

Wow thank you, couldn’t have done it without your video!🎉🎉🎉

Great idea... works - occasionally - terrible connectivity issues with the most recent iPhone software it seems. If you are expecting a system that consistently works - this is NOT it currently! Oh and online tech support - NONEXISTANT!

[jameybreakstone]

Bought it after watching your video. Carlink T2C is a total disappointment. Sort of glitchy and slow, prone to disconnect. Within a week, neither phones could connect. Returning it to Carlinkit is a nightmare. BUYERS BEWARE!!!

Do you need to turn on personal hotspot when driving and turn off personal hotspot when not driving to use home/work wifi for your phone internet?

[garrydenny]

Does it auto connect when you get back in the car or do you have to use the browser and URL every time? Also, can it have two users (drivers)?

[michaelkertes]

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Now I just need to get Tesla. Thanks TRU again for another great video.

[NicolasHabib-or]

Thanks a million, that was the only missing feature I was looking to add to my Tesla MY.
Works perfectly as described.

I think that using the phone's hostpot is not a good idea, not all people have unlimited mobile hostpot, this could result in extra charges with your phone company, using a SIM card I don't understand if it has to be activated or it can be use any, could you clarify this, thank you, I await your response

[jasonlin]

Can you listen to music with regular radio or from the USB flash drive using this setup? Must you listen to the music from your phone or Carplay?

I don't have Premium Connectivity since I made decision to switch to Ownice, previously T2C, and Personal Hotspot for Tessie and Tesla Connectivity.
On long distance trips I enter the destination and Tesla Nav. selects SuperChargers.
I, then, enter the location of a SuperCharger in Waze.
While the routes are typically the same, the added visual and audio route conditions coming from Waze, can not be matched by Tesla Nav. with Premium Connectivity, IMHO.
I would say that Ownice has met my expectations even though there is about a 30 sec delay for it to boot up.

This device you may be excited about for one week and give it up. Steps to connected and relying on a browser.. too complicated and not OCD friendly. Lol

Great idea but I swear I have seen something similar in the past using a browser and I remember the idea died within few months.

Tesla needs to allow this on the get go, thats when I am sure I would use.

[DJNANNU]

When you play youtube video does lips matching issue fix this device ?

[apolloxgod]

Will the other device work? I have that one.

[olenronning]

I bought this and set it up and it’s working, but I’m getting extremely choppy, stuttery audio. Any ideas?

[kbestle]

Do you find it necessary to have to frequently refresh the page.

[waxy]

Will this work with a 2020 Model 3 with the Atom processor? Does it stay connected to WiFi even in reverse? What about if you want to listen to a music source built into the Tesla system? Will maps continue to work, for example, or phone?

[tedmayo]

Which is the best carplay device. Have you reviewed the many on the market?

[dtroxx]

Do you still have a internet connection true the carlinkit wifi on your tesla? Because mine doesn't have any internet connection anymore when I try to use Netflix for example.

[kencotton]

Will this device let me see my Sirius XM app and open it on the Tesla main screen?
