Phone Connectivity
How Entune™ [5] works
Much like the apps on your mobile phone, Entune™ requires a connection to the Internet in order to send and receive data. Conveniently, your smartphone's data plan provides the perfect go-anywhere connectivity you need to connect your Entune™ -equipped Toyota to the world. Even though you need a smartphone to use Entune™, you do not need a smartphone to use Bluetooth® [3] hands-free, Bluetooth® [3] audio, or the navigation [11] system (if vehicle is equipped).
Phone connectivity requires three elements to use Entune™:
1. Compatible phones
Entune™ is supported by three phone platforms:
- Apple®
- Android™
- BlackBerry® ***
Android™ and Blackberry® wirelessly connect your phone to the available Entune™-equipped Toyota using Bluetooth® [3]. The iPhone® [6] is connected via a USB data cable. Click the link below to see if your phone is compatible.
Do I have a compatible phone?
***Prius Plug-in Hybrid Apps are exclusively compatible with Android™ smartphones and Apple® iPhones® through the use of Bluetooth® [3]
2. Entune™ app installed on your smartphone
The Entune™ apps & data Services [4] are accessed through the Entune™ app, which you will need to download and install on your compatible phone. The Entune™ app is available free of charge from the app stores below.
3. Smartphone data plan from your network provider
Once connected, Entune™ uses your smartphone's data plan to communicate between the vehicle and the Internet to drive the Entune™ apps and data services. This data plan is different from a voice plan, so if you’re not sure you have a data plan, please check with your network provider.
