Ratings and reviews

A $50,000+ car and I have to plug my phone into the car to use the app!!! That might have been cool 10 years ago, but not today. There isn't even an option to upgrade to a descent system like other vehicles that you manufacture already have. Finding aftermarket options is almost impossible too. Come on Kia, I love the car, but get it together and pay attention to the details!!!

It works, but would be much nicer if there were a way to add services done on the car, mileage, and dates. I went to the dealer for every service interval through 55k miles, and only one of them registered in the app. I have all the receipts, but there is nowhere to add the info. It would also be helpful to add stuff from other service shops, because I now know the dealer is a rip-off artist, and I take my car elsewhere. All other features work fine. 2015 Kia Forte, Pixel 4A phone.

Its kind of useless. Only works when its plugged in with USB. Even when its plugged in, it barely works. Constantly says its waiting for a Bluetooth connection on my phone, but never connects. I have to use Android Auto. Because for some reason my car doesn't have navigation. Can't use UVO and Android Auto at the same time. Let me rephrase. Its completly useless.
