Ratings and reviews

Very limited functionality here in Ireland. Some very basic controls missing. Cannot lock/unlock the car. Cannot stop/start charging. Cannot track the car. Only one person can be logged in at a time. App only displays WLTP range and not dynamic range. No alerts possible to set up on app for geofences or for breaking a configured speed limit.

The app works but is slow. The main annoyance are the notifications - when I charge it on excess solar (so the charging can start and stop as the clouds move around), I don't get notified until I actually switch to the app or open it. Also the notifications appear in a random order, not in the order that they were sent, so I have to manually look for the latest notification to understand the current state of charging.

The app is OK, but there are quite a few frustrations. Why put a pin in to access functions within the app when you have to log in to access? The 4x2 widget won't load at all. Functions are REALLY limited. Seat memory is a no brainer to add given it is a screen function. The NFC card would be superfluous if this was in the app.
