Acura website shows an APP button

So just like the title says, on the TLX for the interior pics, there is an apps button but looking at the TLX I do not see the apps button. Am i missing something??

This is the picture I am talking about.

None. It must be a preproduction photo as there is no APPS button.

Cool. I guess they decided to integrate Pandora and Aha in Audio? Unless there was a plan to put HDMI in the TLX at one time?

Yes, wow, OP- that is an eagle eye to spot that!

And it could have been a concept, or pre-production photo- or MAYBE what's to come to the TLX in 2016????

Oh, how I wish my tlx actually integrated with my iPhone for even the most basic things, like maps. As it is, I can't even use pandora without pulling my phone out of my pocket and approving the link each time.

For me, Pandora automatically connects to my Android phone without touching the phone. I would like to automatically start my Bluetooth apps, like Audible, in the same manner.

When ever I decide I want to buy something I research and look at pics and videos as much as I can until I finally buy it. I guess its taking mental ownership so I know how to use it by time I get it, so I was just looking at every angle of pics for the TLX and it caught my eye.

I'm thinking it might be available for the 2016 model... According to the below video, it's available on the '16 ILX... It appears to be a new feature called AcuraLink Navi App and apparently ILX Premium trims without navigation can use this to add navigation capability via an iphone. It's controlled through that "app" button.

They have this feature on Civics, Cr-Vs and Fits. You can also watch videos from your iPhone to the car when your aren't driving.
