About this app

The Kia Connect is an advanced and innovative connected car solution that integrates your Kia vehicle and smartphone into a single solution to provide a secure and convenient experience.

With the Kia Connect app, you will be able to access the latest information about your Kia Connected vehicle, and you will be able to benefit from remote services such as:

1. Vehicle Remote Controls
Start the vehicle. Set the desired temperature in the vehicle and activate the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) or control the charging process remotely from the app (electric vehicles only).
Lock and unlock the doors (all compatible models).

2. Vehicle Status
Offers an overview of key elements of your vehicle’s status such as door locks, ignition, battery and charge level and supplies you with a Monthly Vehicle Report summarising vehicle usage.

3. Send Destination
Allows you to pre-plan and set your journey through the app for seamless use of the Kia Navigation system.

4. Find My Vehicle
Keep track of your vehicle and remember where you left it.

5. Alert Notifications
You will be notified whenever a vehicle alert is triggered and be sent Diagnostic Notifications about the current status of your vehicle.

6. My Trips
Provides a summary of your previous journeys including average speed, distance driven and time in transit.

7. Valet Parking Mode
You will be able to monitor the vehicle status (vehicle location, driving time, driving distance and top speed) from the Kia Connect app while a valet is driving the vehicle. In parallel, a valet can only access limited vehicle information.

Note: The features listed above are only available to vehicles equipped with Kia Connect. Before you use any of the Kia Connect features, you must first accept the Kia Connect terms and conditions by clicking “I accept” when you open to the Kia Connect App.
