Hmmmm, I'm not quite sure the purpose of this app. I can unlock & lock the vehicle. Basically that's it. All the other stuff i can see or hear. Android auto does pretty much everything on voice command. I should be able to open & close the boot, control windows, start the car & heat it up on a cold morning & use that pretty impressive entertainment system. Interesting, but pointless.

The app is great but has a couple of ridiculous flaws! Simple 1, u can't clear notifications which has made me go and check my car several times because the time and date aren't too clear! Now the concerning 1s, it keeps saying there is a warning on my battery, I've had the car checked but the app insists! Next, now it keeps telling me the alarm has been tripped!

Like Daniel Hyman review, I too have DTE some times showing KM instead of miles although I have set miles. I get occasional no response from vehicle errors as well but the most frustrating issue is the mileage error in trip recording. UVO will say we travelled say 15 miles in the day, but the vehicle odometer on dash has increased 16 or 17 miles. Never had that in 5 years with previous EV & would love to see it fixed in UVO. It would also be great for the app to show the odo reading

Finally got the app 'working', but very flaky on setting the charge time. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Makes it very difficult to program charging to make use of cheap electricity.

The app is pretty good. The only issue I have is that you need your own location to be on to be able to see the location and range of your car on the map. Why would it need to know where I am to tell me where my car is? Please allow this feature without turning on location services on your phone.

I am a newby so just getting to grips with UVO. I find it very, very slow at getting a vehicle status update most of the time. I do not find the app intuitive and have to search around.
