Ratings and reviews

Nice app, but security feature is useless. It gives multiple warnings every time you open the vehicle. So also if you open it intendedly. I get up to 40 warnings a day, so switched it off. Please dont report warnings if car is opened with key. Also starting at distance does not work. Update June 22: App lost even more functionality. You can't track your trips and energy usage anymore.

Overall an ok app, does what it says, but is quite limited and not very intuitive. I live how easy it is to start the car, and I like to review my journeys, EXCEPT, that the journeys are always cut in pieces, cause by waiting at a traffic light. The app registers this waiting time as a stop, causing my trip to split in pieces. So that functionality is cool, but needs some tweaking.

The app is practicality useless, buggy and unreliable when it comes to storing the data. Yet, there are a few features I use: checking the charge level, ETA of a full charge and things like odometer and tire pressure. Bugs: doesn't save certain settings, recentry had a bug when it was not possible to go pass 'accept cookies' stage. Looses charge transactions. When I tried to track tre trips with it, big part of them was not saved. Often asks to re-set the settings I've set before.
