Default New 991.2 GTS Google Maps?!

Have everything but Google Maps / Online search etc. Sim card in and have wifi.

Am I just being an idiot? I did press the map layer sheets and no option for google maps.

Did you go to www.myvehicle.att.com to register your car? Need to do that for the free data and apps.

It's been 6months, but I seem to remember I had to call a Porsche number for a code and have the dealer enable my hardware.

On the pcm connect portal there is an activation code that you enter in the vehicle. Go to home, apps, then click OPT and activate. Select new user , enter code and viola! Assuming you are setup on the portal.

Not sure how to fix, but I have to say, this feature is pretty horrible. I tried once, hated it, and went back to the main map layer.

Am I missing some benefit of this function?
