User Reviews

Users appreciate the developer's regular updates and some successful integrations with JVC head units. However, the app suffers from widespread connectivity problems, limited app compatibility, and intrusive prompts that affect driving safety. Many report difficulties with setup, frequent disconnections, and incompatibility with newer devices and Android versions. The inability to add apps or use popular navigation tools on the display frustrates users. Overall, customer feedback indicates significant reliability and usability issues make the app unreliable and disappointing for many.

Pros

Developer provides regular updates to the app.
Integration with certain head units like JVC KW-V640BT is generally stable.
Allows use of apps like YouTube and Yelp through the head unit display.
Improves functionality when paired with JVC Smartphone Control app.
Voice and navigation features work reasonably well on some devices after initial setup.

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues and app disconnections with various Android phones (e.g., Samsung Galaxy S8, S9, Pixel 2).
Limited supported apps; unable to add new apps or properly use popular navigation apps like Waze on the head unit display.
Intrusive and distracting prompts while driving, causing safety concerns.
Incompatibility and poor performance on newer Android versions and devices, leading to frequent errors and disconnections.
Confusing and complicated setup process requiring specific USB cables and multiple apps.
Poor user experience with constant notifications and failures to connect, leading many to deem the app useless.

Recent reviews

Really nice to see that the developer is constantly updating the app, which is always appreciated. Though with this new update on 01 Oct 2021, the YouTube app keeps singing out my account. Quite annoying :(

In all fairness, I bought the JVC KW-V640BT and I could not be happier with it. It is a very clean sounding head unit with a lot of home audio features to fine tune the sound. Also keep in mind that JVC did not write the Weblink APP but agreed to use it. The problem I am having issues with is the same APP everyone else is complaining about. The JVC Weblink app. I have not had any connection issues, but the APP is basically useless. The only apps the weblink has that are slightly useful and will display on the screen are the YouTube app and the Yelp app. The map it displays is worthless. WAZE will play through the speakers but will not display and I have to have the JVC connected to Weblink to do that plus I can’t listen to anything else while the WAZE is running. Why do I need Weblink when I can listen to WAZE through the JVC Bluetooth? I took Weblink off of my phone. It was just useless and just took up room on my phone. I can’t believe that some company spent time and money to researched and developed such a useless app and THEN RELEASE IT.
