This looks that is going to be the site to download the apps for the car.

Thank you!

How does the Android environment work? Is it possible to configure the system so that only apps approved by the third-party provider (here Honda) can be loaded?
As already requested by rickwookie: we need a hack! (...and the car)

I think nobody knows until we play with it. I think somebody who is an expert in these things would be able to allow that and create apps but I am not one of those

It might also void warranty so I don't know. Just hope.
I also hope that Honda keep making new apps and not abandon this.
From that site you can see that they are testing different apps for the Japanese market. Navitime is a navigation app famous in Japan but could be also a remote app as is written in Japanese.

Thanks Reuben! If you set the site on Dutch, we have only the aquarium. No Visual Playlist or Aha Radio.

That's how it often goes, the Dutch market is to small. Honda only sold about 1400 cars here last year. And if you compare that with previous years, that is even a record. In 1986 they sold over 14000 cars, after which it went downhill year by year, with a peak in 2009 of more than 10000 cars and that were mainly Civic's Hybrid because they had a tax advantage. Therefore Honda dealers are hardly here anymore and the dealers that are still exist they all have a extra brand, mine Hyundai for example.

How does Honda‘s Android System relate to the one in the new Polestar 2*.This looks great!
Does Honda uses the same system with a different front end or is Polestar‘s Android Automotive a different breed?

* have a look:

A few snaps from the list of installed apps on the car I sat in this morning:

Calculator?!

Is this the app that does all the clever birds-eye-view stuff?

Nice, that looks like a normal android

I just found that some Honda cars are already hacked.

Even on youtube you will find vidoes if you write honda hack app. But I would be too scared to try.

The manual does not say that there is a calculator app. First time I heard it. It can mean that they have apps hidden and there will be a way to show the hidden apps. I wish to know the full list of apps. Especially if there is any browser installed too.
