Tesla's own navigation will not work, yes, because it uses things like the live availability of superchargers to decide where to stop for charging along the way.
But why won't Spotify work? Isn't it just a web app?
- dzhiurgis 2y ago1. You need connectivity. Connecting via WiFi hotspot is PITA and not sure if you can just plug any SIM card. 2. There might be all sort of Teslas API wrappers or keys that Spotify will revoke once stop getting a kickback.
- diebeforei485 2y agoCellular connectivity is a profitable part of the business (recurring revenue monthly) so it will definitely stay alive as part of any bankruptcy/reorganization proceeding. Are there kickbacks involved? Why? There are millions of Teslas on the road and they make 2 million cars a year, and the app is just a web app in a headless browser.
- dzhiurgis 2y ago> Cellular connectivity is a profitable part of the business I wouldn't be so sure. It's about 6x cheaper than typical unlimited data plan here. Is Spotify API completely open? I haven't checked but I'm sure there are api keys + api spec will eventually change. Is web app embedded?
