new to UConnect
Hey all,
I'm picking up a '15 Durango with the Uconnect AN system, and I was kinda curious about some features...
Mainly, is it capable of connecting to your phone for internet access? Like turning your phone into a wifi hotspot? The dealer seemed to be winging it when I asked her about it. If not, how does the system use apps like Pandora and such?
Also, what are the options for watching like Netflix or Amazon VOD on the rear entertainment system? Is there an HDMI input for the entire rear entertainment system or am I limited to the ports on the seats?
Thanks in advance for the help!
Mike

So I checked out the site, but it doesn't really clear anything up. Do you have to buy their internet service to use the apps like Pandora through the radio? I notice you can stream audio from your phone, but I thought the point of having apps on the radio was that you didn't have to do a streaming setup...
So it looks like UConnect has a "Via Mobile" setting/option/feature where it'll use your phone for those applications through the headunit. That appears to be what I'm looking for. Just leaving this here incase anyone else stumbles on the same question/concern.
