Enform - Compatible phones
I'm in the process of purchasing a 3IS and was curious whether my Android phone was compatible with the Enform system. Here's my exchange with Lexus's "customer support". Their interaction left me a bit cold, especially given that my phone (a new Moto G LTE (1st Gen)) meets all the criteria for support. I think customer support picked the easy answer instead of doing any research.
Your thoughts?

I'm sorry that you felt the response was not appropriate for your question. Perhaps I can explain a little further. We are not able to test every phone with our vehicles because there are so many phones and technology upgrades faster than we do. Therefore, we provide a list of tested phones.
To answer your question about Android. Our vehicle's do work with SOME android phones. For example if there is a windows based phone that uses android it will not be compatible. The easiest way to determine if your phone is compatible with our vehicle is to visit your app market and look for Enform apps. If they are available they should work with the vehicle.
If you encounter problems please contact us by phone so we can address them with you.

You can download to your laptop and transfer to your phone, or directly download to your phone. Here are the directions:

This is also the latest version of the software. Requires Android 4.0 and up. Works great on my phone.
You can also do the same thing for Enform Remote, if your car has the capability.
Perhaps Lexus could make the APK (and updates) availalable for everyone to download and at least try on their phones?
