I'm not suggesting bluetooth. I'm talking tethering.

I’m not about to tether my phone every time I get in the car.

If its automatic, what is your objection to enabling tethering when you get in the car?

I mean wifi tethering. Sure, I could set up Tasker to turn it on once it detects that I'm in the car, but I'd personally rather save myself the effort.

The alternative is paying monthly for a data connection in the car. I'd prefer not to do that, but thats simply my preference.
