Sensus Conenct Internet

[Flux]

The wonders of technology!

Great to hear it's working but don't expect you will be overbundled with joy when you look at the App's. I don't use any of them apart from the occasional blast on the Tune-In app. My favourite is the send to car function for nav destinations but most of the others are a bit lame IMHO.

Like you have said, would be great to have the Spotify app as part of the bundle but somehow don't think they will add as their reason would be to just tether your phone - and save them the agro of getting this added to sensus connect..

Sounds like Sensus is something I would rather do without, especially as I'm planning on using TomTom, but it appears I have to have it to get the 7" screen for a rear parking camera. That makes it one heck of an expensive camera!

Had a bit more of a play and the tunein app is actually pretty good. Audio quality is good and the selection is fantastic (been listening to Zambian radio whilst driving round town!).

Going to have more of a play later, but if they just has Spotify too it would be great..

Always disliked parking cameras personally, much prefer the beeps, but maybe that's me getting old....

Erm. Have I missed something? (Just ordered my S60 and now wondering whether I've not specced up what I think I have...?)

That article refers to Sensus Connected TOUCH which is Touch screen dealer upgrade for some sensus systems, not standard and not worth the £1200 or whatever it is IMHO

Sensus connect is not a touch screen.

I'm a fan of Spotify too and really wish the Sensus Connect system included it. However, if like me you have a collection of Spotify playlists, you can migrate these to Rdio using a simple app called Re/spin (see http://resp.in/).

What apps should I be getting in my MY15 V60 with Sensus Connect but without Nav? I currently only see Rdio, Tune-in radio and one other (can't remember what now). My car is linked with MyVolvo.

not sure if thats for UK or not, I have also got a Weather App and WIKI Locations

May take a good few days for them all to appear.

So does the current sensus connect with nav come with the Spotify app? I'm totally confused? My new v60 comes in a couple of weeks and was hoping that this would be included.

Thanks - it looks as though most of the apps are only available if you also have Nav which seems a bit stupid because I know the car has a GPS aerial and that the Nav upgrade if you already have Sensus Connect is simply the installation of the maps.
