YHave you turned on “personal Hotspot “ in iPhone settings?

you then have to go into settings on toyota touch 2 and configure internet connection (pretty obvious when you see the screen)...

On the iPhone, go to settings and go to mobile data to select personal hotspot.
Or it might be already in settings.

That will fix it.

I got so far with this but now it's asking me for a subscription 

what I want to do is get street view on my sat nav any help please

Terry

btw I have logged in to my Toyota 

[Graham47]

The Street View of the desired location can be viewed.
This function requires an Internet con- nection and a login to the Toyota portal site. (P.132, 225)

Ok, it says (P132) to login to the “toyota portal” on the touch 2.  Think that means “login to my toyota, which you’ve done.

After you’ve logged in, display the “Toyota online menu screen” and “street view “ should be one of the apps listed....

Apparently you access this by pressing the ‘world’ (globe) symbol on the screen (top right corner, I think), which is supposed to toggle between phone and portal

have you downloaded the touch 2 manual from My Toyota website...it’s detailed there.

When I select street view it then asked for a subscription?

when someone says this must you pay something

These are some (random) google results....

https://blog.toyota.co.uk/toyota-touch-2-how-to-search-online-with-google-streetview-and-panoramio

 

one thing that occurs to me is have you registered your unit on the Toyota portal via you vin number....

from what I can see the “subscription “ comes included for 3 years from new but you must (somehow) have to register your unit to activate it online.

[YarisOAP]

I have registered the car but got the date wrong first time round

so redone will try tomorrow to get street view, thanks for the link

[Graham47]

Any success @YarisOAP ?

Reason I ask is I’d be interested to hear how much data you find you are using with phone constantly linked to internet.

[YarisOAP]

Still not connected to internet will go down to Toyota and ask them for help

 

[Graham47]

Are you sure your particular mobile tariff allows ‘tethering ‘ or ‘personal hotspot ‘ ?

Not all do.

[YarisOAP]

I see you have the same model as me can you connect to internet and get all the features on the hybrid 

yes I have hotspots and know it must be turned on, I am on ID mobile sim

Terry

[Graham47]

Yes I can.

I’m on 3 (same as id mobile) ...I used to have an iPhone se but now an iPhone X.  Both allow access to the internet from the Yaris.

 

Edit...

just done a quick search and, according to this...

https://www.simsherpa.com/networks/id-mobile/review-and-guide?accept-cookies

id mobile doesn’t allow tethering....

and seems to be confirmed by their community...

https://community.idmobile.co.uk/bills-allowances-charges-21/is-there-a-charge-for-tethering-621

[YarisOAP]

Thanks Graham I have read through the links and seems ID mobile don't want 

you to use tethering, I have personal hotspots which I can turn on but my grandchildren 

seem to think if I turn this on other users can use it ? I can not find on my phone settings

tethering. 

[Graham47]

Hot spot/tethering is the same thing.....

others can only use your ‘hotspot’ if they know the pwd (just like your router)....

if you have an ipad (or even maybe your pc) you could try to see if either can connect to the internet via your hotspot.  That will confirm if it’s working.

if you go to the hotspot in settings I think the pwd (for a wifi connect)  is there....

[YarisOAP]

After the read abit more I see it's the same thing, well I have had some success 

i had my Toyota on my IPad but not on my phone loaded it on phone and turned

on hotspots and now can get weather, fuel, etc so çonnection to internet working now.

but now need to find out how to get street view on satnav. Thanks for your help...

[YarisOAP]

Got the street view working but a complete let down you can only see

the st view when you are not moving, I expected to see st view as you

was moving ? 

Anyone know any good apps to open on the Yaris.
