    To run an Android only application, "SCAN MY TESLA," I picked up a Samsung 10.1", 128 GB, Android 9, tablet at Costco. Different from the Apple world, I have questions:
    • Recommended Samsung table and/or Android forum?
    • Biometric login software or place login/lock options? In the car, I don't want to be looking down to enter password. But if someone rips off the tablet, I'd like it to become inert or at least 'phone home.'
    • Split application display on the table? Being able to see more than one app running at a time on the same screen avoids 'eyes in cabin' fiddling with tablet.
    • Mechanical locking or securing mechanisms?
    Thanks,
    Bob Wilson

    ps. Merry Christmas PriusChat friends
