data connection. This feature uses approximately 7 MB of data per month.

GPRS.
Hands-free calls
Receive and make calls on your GO. Get full access to your phone's personal assistant - Siri or
Google Now. Simply tap the phone button on the GO screen.

Receive SMS and messages from other smartphone apps appear on your GO. Messages can be
read aloud so that you can keep your eyes on the road ahead.
Connecting your phone with or without the MyDrive app
