Wireless Fast and stable Works in tunnels
CabinCast shares your screen from your iPhone to your Tesla over Personal Hotspot. The screen is not sent through the internet, so it can keep working without relying on cellular data after the hotspot connection is active.
Direct connection
Your iPhone and Tesla talk to each other through Personal Hotspot.
No mobile data needed
Screen sharing does not need mobile data.
Know before driving
CabinCast is view-only. Touch control stays on the iPhone, and protected video may appear black.
Q&A
Quick answers before you contact support.
Can I use CabinCast for free?
Yes. CabinCast is free to use for iPhone-to-Tesla screen sharing.
Does it use mobile data?
No. Your iPhone shares the screen with the Tesla over Personal Hotspot.
Will it work in tunnels?
Yes. Once the Tesla is connected to your hotspot, CabinCast can keep working without cellular signal.
Do Netflix or Amazon Prime Video work?
No. Protected video apps restrict screen sharing, so the video content usually appears black.
Why can smoothness change?
Hotspot quality, the Tesla browser, iPhone heat, and the selected quality option can all make a difference.
Why support the app?
Support helps fund development and gives you access to new experimental features.
Can heat lower quality?
Yes. If the iPhone gets hot, a lower-quality option can help keep things stable.
Can I control the iPhone from the Tesla screen?
No. CabinCast shows the screen only. You still control everything on the iPhone.
Need CabinCast to load reliably?
Use the support page for the browser address, hotspot checks, fullscreen help, and known limits.
