Ratings and reviews

The app is mediocre for unlocking, locking, activating aircon etc. But since I got a new phone, it now doesn't send notifications to the phone. I don't know if the car is charging, if it's done, if the alarm is going off or if the doors are unlocked without going into the app and manually checking. plus it's buggy. I've had instances when I've turned the AC on, it's turned it off, then when I turn it on again, it's just been blowing hot air. dangerous with my dog inside.

Could be great. Feels clunky and far from intuitive. It has been getting better with iterative updates but still feels lacking. Preheating lacks finesse and should allow for window and mirror clearing. Remote view of the cameras! BYD have a 4g sim card on board(data allowances are beyond meager in this day and age) so there should be no reason we can't have remote camera/sentry mode. Send a destinations and favs to the onboard sat nav for your next journey from the phone.

Is a nice to have app, but could be way better - especially considering the tech level of the cars it pairs with. Sorely needed are: -more than one user at a time. People share cars! -dont require a pin when biometrics is already enabled -nicer UI. Just match what's in the car! Also, the inside temp has gone missing from the AC controls. That was really useful to decide if turning on the AC remotely was actually needed.
