What are the reasons for Chevrolet's infotainment system being unable to connect to the internet?

Chevrolet's infotainment system being unable to connect to the internet may be due to the following reasons: Requirement to install an APP: Taking the all-new Toyota Camry as an example, it has smartphone connectivity features but requires downloading a Lexus APP on the phone to establish the connection. Many car owners have likely encountered this issue. This could be because the vehicle connectivity function requires payment of software management fees to Android or Apple, leading some automakers to develop their own linking software in mobile clients to bypass these costs. System incompatibility: All car manufacturers that want to enable smartphone connectivity must pay software fees to Android or Apple. Therefore, some brands, based on the usage habits of their target market, may only purchase compatibility with Android or Apple systems. If your phone's operating system conflicts with the vehicle's system, it naturally won't connect. Substandard data cable: Beyond the aforementioned system and software issues, another critical factor in smartphone-to-car connectivity is hardware. It's known that each phone comes with only one original data cable, typically used at home for charging, carried around, or kept in the car for charging purposes.
