When you want detailed information about a particular button or switch, simply point the camera of your smartphone at that object or area containing the object.
An interactive pop-up appears on the screen of your phone and with a single touch, you are quickly provided with the information you require.

When a warning light is displayed on your vehicle's combination meter, the Nissan Driver's guide provides you with quick access to additional information.
Point the camera of your phone at the combination meter and with a single touch, you will have access to an explanation of all the warning lights.
You can also touch the dedicated warning light icon on the main screen.

The application provides the following features:

1. An Augmented Reality function that recognizes vehicle content through the camera of your smartphone.

This technology interacts with 3 main areas of the vehicle:

·  Steering wheel
·  Navigation and Audio system
·  Climate control system

2. Descriptions of all the warning lights displayed on the vehicle’s combination meter.

3. An electronic version of the Quick Reference Guide, providing a brief overview of many important features of the vehicle, including instructions to follow if your vehicle has a flat Tyre.

Note

The Augmented Reality interacts with these main buttons and systems:

1. Steering wheel buttons
2. Audio system buttons
3. Navigation system buttons
4. Air Conditioning buttons
5. Parking Brake button
6. Combination meter
7. Start/Stop engine button
8. Buttons located between the steering wheel and the driver's door.

To take the best advantage of the Augmented Reality, you should be aware of the following points:

1. Use the application with sufficient exterior light conditions.
2. Always focus the camera on the complete button area of your vehicle. For instance in the case of the climate control and radio panel, please make sure the whole set of buttons is displayed within the screen.
3. If the camera does not immediately recognize the button area, please point the camera at the area again. Or move forwards and backwards slowly until the camera recognizes the element.
4. The Augmented Reality may not work correctly if reflections appear on the surface of the dashboard or sunlight goes directly into the camera lens.

Ratings and reviews

One thing doesn't doesn't work for me. I have a 2022 Juke Hybrid 1.6. I am trying to download the English (UK) users' manual. I can choose it, and get as far as the option to download the pdf. Selecting it returns HTTP Error 404 (i.e. file not found). Either the file is missing from your server, or the app is requesting a wrong URL. PLEASE FIX THIS. I can download and read other versions, e.g. French, but my French vocabulary doesn't include technical terms relating to cars! :(

App no longer works - blank screen when choosing Car - deleted and re-downloaded app but same issue - shame as App good for quick overview, hence the score

All text is a dark colour on a dark background, making it hard to read. I tried to view my car's manual but it only offers a small number of years so I am not sure I selected correctly. Mine is 2020 so I selected 2019 as the closest. Manual doesn't open when clicking on it. Below the broken link to the manual there are three short videos that are mostly dramatic music and graphics and barely any info. Not really sure what the point of the app is.
