I have a case open with Renault on why the apps I've installed in the car can't get internet access unless I use my phone as a hot spot or connect the cat to the house WiFi.
The default Google apps seem to have internet access but no other apps. They all give network errors.
My understanding was the on board SIM gives 2Gb data for an initial 6months.
Are others finding this?
The effected apps are:
Waze
Spotify
And 2 EV charge point apps.

You need to create an Orange account for the car. That gives you 6 months and 3GB free.

Hi
Does it use e-sim or is there a physical card somewhere?

Not seen mention of a physical SIM so would guess Esim
