You need to get off the interwebs like stat and go live in a subterranean bunker if you are worried about that in this time and age....and massive tracking/logging by Tesla. The amount of data the collect and keep is unreal.

Bluetooth is your friend, for now. Hopefully Tesla opens the app store in the car so everybody else publishes their ****.How about access to all the other things on my phone that Tesla doesn't support? Siris XM, Zoom, Overcast, ABRP are supported by CarPlay but not directly in Tesla. My phone is the hub of my digital life. If my car fit in my pocket, maybe it would be ... but it doesn't.
They won't add CarPlay is because it won't integrate into how FSD works.I rhink
That’s not a reason to for people not to have the option to use CarPlay. I have driven Teslas and besides battery level integration, I prefer Apple Maps.
Now I’m curious, how old are you? What do you drive and more importantly how fast do you drive. My dad is 90 and drives an 1970 Volkswagen Beetle.Yeah, the same ones who drive very slow.
Apple Maps = Google Maps these days. Neither is better than the other one. And again, the Google maps integration in the cars is retooled to work better on vehicles. I’m big on Apple, but not blinded.
No but I’ve driven several model Y and model 3’s.Do you own a Tesla?
It does because Tesla has a lot of influence on car design in general, much like the influence Apple has on the tech market, so yes it does.You don’t like Teslas and you absolutely want CarPlay, so there is no problem, this topic doesn’t interest you.
Hi oldmacs,Fair enough. I think a Tesla is the last EV I’d want to own (I review cars), but that’s just me.
...have to pay to use the cellular connection of the Tesla which is pretty standard across most manufacturers. You can connect to your device as a hotspot OR stream it from your phone connected to your car via Bluetooth.Have to pay to use it?? wow
As a Tesla owner, I thought I would miss CarPlay, but I don't. The only thing that I miss is Waze - but that is Tesla not allowing Waze and less to do with CarPlay.What about going fully in and just enabling CarPlay?

Bluetooth is a bandaid. CarPlay is a much better solution. Tesla maps are ok but there’s no doubt Apple Maps and google maps are vastly superior.Bluetooth is your friend, for now. Hopefully Tesla opens the app store in the car so everybody else publishes their ****.
Again, none of those mapping solutions work with Tesla's end goal of everyone using FSD.Well, that is the whole point, you could use Waze and multiple other apps supported by CarPlay if it was enabled in Tesla.
It is 3 reasons. I have no idea why you think Apple Maps is better than the one in the car, it’s far more accurate in car.I rhink

Because it is in their best interest to keep people using their products every chance they get???Why is Apple working with this company again?

I can see why they don't support CarPlay as most of that functionality is baked in. I just wish the Apple Music app was better.I just find it odd, especially as they can’t even be bothered to support CarPlay
CarPlay is ok for cars with poor infotainment systems, it’s just an overlay to hide their misses.I just find it odd, especially as they can’t even be bothered to support CarPlay
