VW Car-Net
Volkswagen has developed their own software to better integrate your smartphone with their vehicles, and it’s called VW Car-Net. This suite of applications makes it easier to get where you’re going, stay connected, and stay aware of your vehicle’s needs.
- App-Connect: Available on select models, VW Car-Net App-Connect allows you to select certain smartphone apps directly from your vehicle’s dash – like maps, music, messaging, and more.
- Guide & Inform: This available VW Car-Net application features handy satellite navigation, traffic updates, and weather reports, and it links up with SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link.
- Security & Service: Forget where you parked? VW Car-Net Security & Service can help you find your last parked location, check to see if your vehicle’s doors are locked, receive vehicle health reports on your phone, and even call for help in an emergency.*
Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, MirrorLink
VW Car-Net App-Connect does more than bring your familiar apps to the dash of your vehicle, it integrates directly with popular connected car technologies like
- Android Auto
- Apple CarPlay
- MirrorLink
Simply plug your smartphone in to App-Connect and these services will do the job of translating between the car and your compatible phone.** Your familiar apps can be broadcast right to the dash, keeping you connected without needing to learn a new interface – just plug in and go.
