Update: APRIL 2024. I've just updated the app as the previous version stopped showing data. Now it no longer shows percentage charge, just range. Range is a pretty useless metric, in isolation because it's basically a guesstimate based upon current driving conditions or last journey. Since owning our Citigo I've kept a driver's log showing % of charge used for various trips. It's been very useful, especially on infrequent long distance trips. Now I cannot use this data. Pls bring back % charge!!

I don't get it. Bought a car for 30k, including Smart Link, and then most app features still won't work, because I am supposed to pay additional 40€/month? Outrageous! How much did it cost you to develop this laggy app? I'm pretty sure my purchase alone covered the development, and more. I have an app on my smartphone. The phone connects with the vehicle. The app recognizes the car. The car has all its data. Yet I cannot get the data to my phone. EDIT: Sent the email to support, including VIN.

It seems to be getting progressively worse. App simply will not open anymore after the recent update. Even before the update, opening it was a fuff, kept asking to login randomly for no good reason. Also do not understand why I need to visit the dealer to enable lock/unlock the car with the app AFTER setting things up with both keys. It's bewildering to say the least. Other apps let you start cars from the app, this won't even let you unlock! Definitely a step in the wrong direction.
