Bluelink and carplay

[Thrillofit]

Hello!

Firstly, I apologize for writing in English. I will provide a translation further below.

I recently purchased a used Hyundai Tucson Hybrid AWD Automatic, 230hp, 2021 - Petrol, 1.6 I4 (230 hp (227 bhp)), and I absolutely love it! It's fantastic. However, I have a few questions about Bluelink and Carplay.

Bluelink:

I've managed to connect the car to the BlueLink app, but it only works when I use mobile data. That's fine for now, but currently, my car only has the ability to lock or unlock. Shouldn't I be able to, for example, turn on the fans in winter to heat up the car before getting in?

Apple CarPlay:

It seems I need to use a USB cable to access CarPlay and Android Auto. Is it possible to update the firmware to enable connection through Bluetooth directly instead? It seems a bit redundant to use a cable when most new cars offer this feature via Bluetooth.

¡Hola!

Recientemente compré un Hyundai Tucson Hybrid AWD Automático de segunda mano, 230hp, 2021 - Gasolina, 1.6 I4 (230 hp (227 bhp)), ¡y me encanta! Es fantástico. Sin embargo, tengo algunas preguntas sobre Bluelink y Carplay.

Bluelink:

He logrado conectar el coche a la aplicación BlueLink, pero solo funciona cuando uso datos móviles. Está bien por ahora, pero actualmente, mi coche solo tiene la capacidad de bloquear o desbloquear. ¿No debería poder, por ejemplo, encender los ventiladores en invierno para calentar el coche antes de entrar?

Apple CarPlay:

Parece que necesito usar un cable USB para acceder a CarPlay y Android Auto. ¿Es posible actualizar el firmware para permitir la conexión a través de Bluetooth directamente en lugar de eso? Parece un poco innecesario usar un cable cuando la mayoría de los coches nuevos ofrecen esta función a través de Bluetooth.

Simple as:

A clear NO for both,

Bluelink options in Europe are quite limited to basics, do not expect much beside the ones you have current access to.

CarPlay and Android Auto by wire, no possibility to upgrade to wireless, except if you buy and install an external wireless device.

Thats unfortunate. I guess the reason for Bluelink is due to battery might risk to burn if you use other heating stuff blablabla?

How come that there is no wireless for it? Does any newer models have that? Etc. BMW X4 2020 has it but not a tucson 2021?

BlueLink limitations are due to legal / safety limitations in Europe, at least that’s what Hyundai claims.
Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto only available on lowest range models: 8” screen, but remains wired on Style, sounds like a nonsense, but is a fact.

Oh that sucks Thank you for the information! Guess I will need to buy a small cable to get access to CarPlay Weird that the lowest range has it but not advanced version specially that you spend so much more money

Sigo un sabio consejo de mi padre: “Procura ser util y respetuoso con todo aquel que cortésmente solicite tu ayuda, pueda que un dia tu te veas en la misma situación y agradezcas la ayuda”.

Otro de sus sabios consejos, que me ha sido muy util en mi carrera profesional es: “Nunca mires por encima del hombro a un trabajador / subordinado, por muy humilde o simple que sea su labor, si esta barriendo, lo hará mejor que tu, si esta cavando, cavara mejor y mas rapido que tu, pídeles consejo y aprenderás de ellos, son dignos de tu respeto y agradecerán tu interés”.
