Default My Lexus Gs400 Audio Build Updated!! (Tablet Install)

Check it out if you have time and let me know what you think. I had an older post but couldn't figure out how to update it so I made this one.

Thanks!

The tablet connects to the hotspot from my phone. I haven't had the chance to mess with it too much yet because I have been busy but there is an app that will automatically turn on my hotspot when I get into the car. They also have an LTE version of the tablet if I wanted to go that route. That way I would always have connection to internet no matter what. But to use the LTE I would have to add the device to my phone plan which would be an extra $10 a month. At this point it isn't really worth it when I can just connect with hotspot and use the data that I already pay for. Verizon is already expensive as it is lol

What app is that you have? And are you connected to an aux or some kind of wireless receiver
