How the "Mercedes me" app obtain the real time data from my car?

I always wonder how come the "Mercedes me" app can always provide real time update of my car status even there is no telco signal in the car?

Anyone know how they do it?

If your hp is linked up via bluetooth, etc, it can get the internet connection through your phone.

There is a setting to 'share' internet connection from your connected devices.

Maybe you can check to see if that's the case? Let us know too!

No, that's not the case.

My phone is at home with me. The car is with my wife at her office. But I can use my phone at home to see the car status.

The provision of the Mercedes me connect services is via a SIM card installed in the car and depends upon the availability of network coverage. The cost of connecting the vehicle to the Daimler AG server will be borne by Daimler AG.^VI
