which apps have you tried?

I just had two apps, to test. Volvo on call and weather app. Both work when connected to phone or wifi

Have tried almost all the apps on sensus with no luck. Shame I am not quite in range of the house wifi. I will try a wifi extender I have.

I'm not in front of Sensus at the minute so can't remember the exact procedure, but is it anything to do with your car not being setup to use the correct internet source?

Maybe first you could try to set your phone up as a Wifi hotspot (this is nothing to do with it being bluetooth connected to the car), then get your car to connect to the Wifi Hotspot on your phone (something like Settings -> Communications -> Wireless Networks). Then try the apps.

There are a number of ways I guess, this is what I did

right top corner on the forum >> click on private messages link (under your profile name) >> left of the screen you see the option to edit signature.

BTW BTXC90, your signature is showing "[FONT="Tahoma"]" at the start. I suspect you have two "[FONT="x"]" tags at the start.
