## Review summary

Users like the app for day-to-day utility, reliable core features, and a clean UI, plus fleet monitoring and frequent updates. However, the app suffers from reliability and data issues: inaccurate vehicle status, flaky connectivity, broken widgets, charging-control quirks, and incomplete integrations (CarPlay/Assistant). Updates can help connectivity, but many still experience lag and inconsistent behavior. Overall, core functionality is solid, but reliability and UX consistency are the main drawbacks.

### Pros

- Generally usable with most needed features and reliable core functionality
- Regular updates that improve connectivity and reliability
- Simple, clean UI and intuitive design
- Ability to monitor multiple Polestars in one place (fleet support)
- Useful day-to-day functionality and features

### Cons

- Inaccurate or inconsistent vehicle status data (doors, parked/on, charging state) across multiple reviews
- Unreliable connectivity and frequent difficulty connecting to the car
- Home screen widgets and other UI elements that are broken or unreliable
- Charging controls that misbehave (limits not applying, accidental changes, charging status sometimes not recognized)
- Profiles/Assistant/CarPlay integrations not working reliably (Google Assistant, CarPlay, profiles) and overall lag
