About this app

Simple app which allow users to project Android Auto using Tesla's built in browser.

German version can be located: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.cpeb.tesaa.germany

Since Tesla browser prohibits usage of RFC 1918 network address, the VpnService is used to allocate a real public IP to the phone. No traffic is redirected through the VPN, the VpnService is solely used for IP allocation purpose.

Your Tesla needs to have support for hardware accelerated video for this app to work. All Tesla's supporting Netflix/YouTube/Disney+ should be able to use this app.

- To use the app make sure you select the Tesla's BT from the list of BT devices,
- Connect the Tesla WiFi to the phones hotspot
- Open browser on Tesla and navigate to: www.androidwheels.com
- Make sure your audio source is set to BT

Ratings and reviews

This works wonderfully for me, worth every penny! Much better than the Carlinkit device even though they both operate similarly. I let premium connectivity lapse and didn't even notice, so I'm no longer paying for data! Every once in a while you'll need to reboot the phone if the app gets choppy, but if you understand how many things need to align for this app to function it's no big deal. If you know how to enable the Tesla WiFi to switch on when my BT phone connects, please share :)

On Samsung S23. Aleady set my hotspot, available while driving on Model Y 2024. Android Auto shows up for few seconds in high definition , then it crashed. Never got it to work again. UPDATE: Tried different phone, with Pixel 8. This makes 1000 times better. Doesn't crash, only flicker once in a while. Music keep playing uninterrupted. Doesn't need to start service manually from TesAA app as well. Downside is Hotspot stays on all the time, eating my quota and phone is hotter. Bump to 4 stars.

It functions as expected when it works. But random freezing and disconnection have been too frequent, making this app unreliable for road trip.... Update: After the October update, this app is completely useless. The Tesla browser keep showing "please connect to your phone's hotspot and make sure TeslAA is running on the phone...", all of which I have confirmed multiple times. Restart, reconnect, change resolution and DPI. Nothing makes this once beautifully useful app work again. 😭
