About this app

Your smartphone becomes the digital link to your Mercedes. You have an overview of all information and control your vehicle via the app.

MERCEDES-BENZ CONNECT: ALL FUNCTIONS AT A GLANCE

ALWAYS INFORMED: The Vehicle Status informs you about the mileage, range, current fuel level or data from your last journey, for example. Use the app to conveniently check your tyre pressure, the status of the doors, windows, sliding sunroof/soft-top and boot, or the current locking status. You can also pinpoint the location of your vehicle and receive warning messages regarding unlocked doors, for example.

CONVENIENT VEHICLE CONTROL: With the Mercedes-Benz App, you can remotely lock and unlock or open and close the doors, windows, and sliding sunroof. Start the auxiliary heating/ventilation or program this for your departure time. In electric vehicles, you can also activate pre-entry climate control and temper the vehicle immediately or for a defined departure time.

CONVENIENT ROUTE PLANNING: Plan your route at your leisure and conveniently send addresses to your Mercedes via the app. This means you can get in and drive off straight away.

SAFETY IN AN EMERGENCY: The Mercedes-Benz App notifies you of attempted theft, an attempt to tow away the vehicle and parking damage. If a vehicle alarm has been tripped, you can turn it off via the app. The Geofencing service sends you a notification as soon as the vehicle enters or leaves an area defined by you. In addition, you can configure Speedfencing and Valet Protect in the app, and receive push notifications in the event of their violations.

FUEL-SAVING DRIVING: The Mercedes-Benz App shows you your vehicle's individual fuel consumption. It also compares your fuel consumption with that of other drivers of the same vehicle model. The ECO display informs you about the sustainability of your driving style.

SIMPLY ELECTRIC: The Mercedes-Benz App lets you display your vehicle's range on a map and search for charging stations near you. The app also allows you to start the charging process at a public charging station.

Discover the full convenience of the new Mercedes-Benz Apps: They offer you ideal support for making your mobile everyday life easier and more flexible.

Let the app help you. The Mercedes-Benz App gives you a timely reminder of your next service appointment, which is easy to book from your smartphone. Also in the app: practical How-To videos in which you can find out more about your Mercedes-Benz and perform simple maintenance tasks yourself if you choose.

Expand your mobile options with the Mercedes-Benz Store App. Easily find and buy innovative digital products available for your Mercedes. Keep track of the remaining terms of your Mercedes-Benz connect services and on-demand features, and renew these as desired directly from your smartphone.

Please note: Mercedes-Benz connect services and on-demand features only work with Mercedes-Benz vehicles that are equipped with the Mercedes-Benz connect Communication Module. The range of functions depends on the particular vehicle equipment and your booked services. Your authorised Mercedes-Benz dealer will be happy to advise you. Use requires an active, free-of-charge Mercedes-Benz account. The functions can be restricted temporarily if there is insufficient data transmission bandwidth. Continuous use of the GPS function in the background may shorten your battery life.

Ratings and reviews

I've used this app for over 4 years and it had stabalised over the last few months until recently when I have constantly had to log in and now the app doesn't update. Keep having to close, then open again. Not sure if it's linked to the needless updates with hearts for valentines day or snowy Christmas scenes that really are not needed. (And now we have Easter eggs!!! Just get the app working correctly)...edit...and almost 2 years to the day, the app doesn't update again.

Works by restarting only. Gets stuck on the terms of use page. Accepting terms of use doesn't work and ends up in an error. I have been restarting the app to make functions work. It eventually goes to the terms screen, often, and there is no out. Happy to share screenshots, it's been going on for over 2 years and I've decided to live with it.

Excellent App with many useful features. But I find the related Eco Coach confusing and not useful in trying to improve fuel economy. A map of each trip, showing good and bad driving techniques and hints would be much more useful (as I had on my Lexus App). Also, the graph showing my mpg performance compared with all users looks odd, compared with the l/100km graph and it shows negative mpg (??).

What’s new

Now you can search for charging stations - as well as parking spaces and filling stations - in a specific city or location! Just go to the "Maps" tab, type in the city or the address, and the app will show you the stations near there.
