The app is a C-

The car is fantastic, but the app is far behind other companies for example, Tesla. Doing things quickly and on the fly the app is very complex and not intuitive. It’s not always correct in locating charging stations. Which could be a disaster.
My particular app is not integrated very well with electrify America poor and electrify America. It adds another 20 to 40 minutes to any trip over 200 miles.
Suggestion hire some developers from Tesla

Needs work

I want to love this app but it constantly tells me my door is open, the boot is open and that the car itself is unlocked when it is not. Not sure if it’s a software problem. Would be nice to be able to turn on the air before entering the car when it’s hot out.

The apps only work with app open and screen on

I have Amazon music set up, LTE in the car, the apps are linked.

If I open the app on the phone, Amazon music is shown in the PCM. If I merely turn off the screen of the phone, Amazon music is gone in 30 seconds.

The expectation that you will leave your phone screen on to use Amazon music when the car already has lte is totally ridiculous

Purpose

I hope that this app works the way I wanted it.

Porsche App

It would be nice if they showed you a few actual pictures of your custom car as it goes through the assembly line. Especially one at the end before they ship & transport.

Constantly switches to private

Mostly good, but annoyingly switches to private mode at random moments so I can no longer see location. It may be off private for a while when I'm not using car, and then it suddenly switches to private. Annoying.

Updates delayed and remote park broken

The vehicle status lags behind the real state of the car; this creates concern when checking car is locked/secure. Sometimes takes 2/3 refresh cycles to get correct status.

With this version, remote park has stopped working on my Taycan and Cayenne; both for remote park and remote exit. Sometimes it says not available, other times it will fail to connect - even though stood nest to vehicle with key and phone in hand. First attempts it fails immediately; 2 or 3 attempt it’ll just hang waiting for the connection. Remote lock and light flash work - so the car is definitely communicating.

Solid

Like the app and use it frequently. So nice to be able to check top/windows/locking status, fuel and oil levels, tire pressure, and miscellaneous trip info from my iPhone whenever I want. And to lock/unlock from my Watch when needed.

The only issue is that the Watch app is squirrelly in that on one Watch it correctly uses miles, but on an identical Watch paired to the same iPhone it use kilometers.

Not even close to Tesla

Love the Porsche hardware (car) but the software is straight boomer compared to Tesla and even recent Rivian updates. Waiting for the app to be able to at the least control pre heating and cooling in less than 3 minutes. it takes forever to simply connect to the car and submit commands.
