Default What do you use with your Audi Connect subscription?

So Just before the pandemic "kicked in" I re-signed up for Audi Connect Prime. Is there a favored feature of the program you use often?

Or mind sharing how you use it?

Thanks

When my subscription was active, I would use it to lookup gas prices in the area for premium fuel. That and the ATT WiFi were the only features I ever used.

does that do the map updates? If "yes" that's about the only thing I use it for, but god willing, my next vacation we'll use it to connect up our tablets.

I live in the Dallas area and with the Prime subscription it shows a small icon that counts down the time until the red light turns green. It can also display a green light that shows you the mph to drive in order to make the green light.

I called the dealer yesterday to ask what subscription I have. They said Prime. Seems in San Jose the lights don't show countdown on Audi Connect. I asked about that and she confirmed that San Jose doesn't do that. FIgures. We are so backwards here despite being Silicon Valley. They don't sync the lights here either. Some in SF are synced such as on 19th Avenue, but not to the speed limit.

Traffic light functionality also magically appeared in Manhattan a few months ago.

Cool - alas, not worth it for me especially now.

Traffic light function is cool. I know they have it in Las Vegas but it is not available in the Greater Boston Area. Anyone in Mass know for sure ?

It is (actually available in 2017 as well): https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/t...ic-light-tech/

In addition to being in the right geographic area, we needed the right car, and the right conditions, to get the benefit of TLI. The system is available on all 2019 Audi models except the A3, TT, and R8, as well as certain vehicles from model years 2018 (A4, A5, Q5/SQ5, and Q7) and 2017 (A4 and Q7).
