Integration of mobile devices 
If your vehicle contains the necessary equipment, you can connect your mobile device or any other 
mobile end device to your vehicle so that you can control this device via the controls integrated in 
the vehicle when the corresponding functions are available. For example, images and sounds from 
the mobile device can be output through the Infotainment system. At the same time, certain 
information is sent to your mobile device. This includes location data and further general vehicle 
information, depending on the type of integration. For more details, refer to the information about 
display of apps in the Infotainment system. 
This enables selected apps on the mobile device to be used in the vehicle, e.g. navigation or music 
player. The mobile device and vehicle do not interact in any other ways than those described here, 
in particular the device does not actively access vehicle data. The type of further data processing 
depends on the app provider. The settings that you can make here depend on the app in question 
and the operating system of your mobile device.

connection enables you to use online functions. This includes online services and apps provided by 
Volkswagen or other third-party providers.
