The app itself works fine so far. But this app does not have the features it is advertised to have. It appears that previous versions used to support at least an Apple Watch app (I have seen video of it working). This version, however, has no convenient ways to integrate with the iOS ecosystem to make it easier to start your car remotely, despite both the installation card graphic and the product website advertising “Assistant ready” and showing the app running on an Apple Watch. Any one of the three possibilities would be tremendously helpful - either an Apple Watch app, a Siri Shortcut integration, or even a Widget (which could then be added to the Home Screen/control center).
Perfect Functionality, but Missing Features
calebjarrell2006
This device is advertised to have Apple Watch support, Siri, google, and Alexa support, and it is missing all of these features currently… These features are the main reason why I purchased this device… if these features are added then I could raise my review… but considering that the main reason why I bought this device is because of its ability to work using those missing features…EDIT: I just finished setting up the module yesterday and so far the functions that are there are awesome! The unlock, lock, and remote start all work perfectly and the GPS location works like a charm! There is also a status page that shows doors unlocked, doors open, hood open, trunk open(if you have a trunk), battery voltage, current vehicle running status(whether the vehicle is off or not), and more! However the Apple Watch and Voice assistant functionality is still not here.TLDR: This thing works perfect with its base functions, however extra functionality(Apple Watch & Siri support) is missing.
App security settings broken

I enabled Face ID to access and control and it triggers Face ID to check on repeat endlessly even if you quit the app and reopen it. Then it’s next to impossible to turn off.The all works for what it’s meant to do but wow does it need a facelift. It reminds me a 2010 style app and is missing some genuinely helpful features like the ability to lock, unlock, and remote start using a Siri shortcut.It’s just ok. I should have asked more questions before I had it installed because now I feel locked in. Even Starlink on my Subaru can be setup in shortcuts (with effort) I just wanted remote start. Hindsight is 20/20
Works but it’s janky

The app works but it’s not great. I have to hit the remote start several times for the app to show the car has started. It’s not always clear if the car hasn’t started or if it has and the app just hasn’t updated to show the correct status so I have to just keep hitting the remote start button until the app shows the car as running.
