Enform AppSuite - Web Browsing Capability?
Thanks to a recent post by SW15LS, I realized that the 2013+ LS's Enform AppSuite does NOT require a monthly subscription (only requires a smartphone app).
This got me thinking... is there any way to get a "true" web browser into the Enform AppSuite?
I understand the Enform AppSuite is (probably) a closed off and proprietary ecosystem... but I also noticed that Mercedes now has a legitimate web browser built into their infotainment system (on the S-class).
My guess is that the underlying technology mechanism is based open source software (likely some variant of Linux)... which (in theory) lends itself well to 3rd party add-ons.
If nothing else, then perhaps there's a way to mirror the screen from an Android phone onto the Lexus navigation screen (via a third-party plugin)... it probably wouldn't be as seamless, but would certainly get the job done.
I figure there's got to be some technology enthusiasts on this forum to bounce ideas off of
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!
