Land Rover Route Planner

JLR - Land Rover

About this app

To be used in conjunction with Land Rover vehicles which are fitted with the next-generation infotainment system, InControl Touch Pro, the Land Rover Route Planner App allows you to navigate from door to door. Before setting out from your home, set your destination from your smartphone and you’ll be directed to your Land Rover as the app detects your vehicle's location. The smartphone app will then automatically sync with your Land Rover’s navigation system using the Cloud so your car will be ready to take over navigating soon after you get in. Once you've finished your in-car journey, navigation is then handed back to your smartphone, which provides any final public transport and pedestrian directions to your final destination.

In addition the Route Planner app also allows you to pre-plan trips and holidays by searching for places of interest or restaurants and saving them as favourites from your smartphone. You will then be able to access these saved locations from the in-car navigation system at a later date.

Note:
• Requires InControl Navigation Account to sign-in. Account can be registered from either your Land Rover’s navigation settings or landrover.here.com.
• As we systematically introduce InControl, specific features, options and its availability remain market dependent. This app requires that your vehicle be fitted with its relevant connectivity package as well as a Micro SIM card with a suitable data contract.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Ratings and reviews

Awful app. The app thinks my car is located about 2 miles from where the car is actually parked and this never updates, so apparently my car is parked on the M62 motorway!! I cannot send my route from the mobile to the car, it just does not recognise it. I have tried updates, uninstall/ Reinstall - all fail to correct the above problems. I find this with Land Rover, it all works well for the first month and then it falls apart and no one seems to care!

As with a lot of others, no matter what I did it would not recognise user name or password when trying to log into app. I have however found a fix after days of trying! Make sure you phone is not connected to you vehicle via android auto etc. Connect vehicle to a WiFi connection or tether to phone. Register a new account on the vehicle but use same details as Land Rover Remote App.... Verify you email. For me finally success. Wish you the same!

This app is a bit awkward to use initially but once you get use to its quirks it's actually pretty useful. Just wish you could enter arrival time ("arrive by" rather then just "leave at"). And add compatibility with other systems like google maps and waze would be useful too. Finally, it would be helpful to allow system set up via app (such as home and comute) rather then sitting in the car for half an hour.
