Not that good
About 10 apps if that for an IPhone. Worthless
Doesn't work for iPhone 6 Plus
Won't connect or Bluetooth
Bad
Not working iPhone 5 in nx603
Terrible, when it actually works
I purchased a NX604 head unit with the main feature I wanted being smart access. I am so disappointed by this integration. It 'worked' all of 1 minute before I attempted to open Waze (why I wanted smart access in the first place). Not only did opening waze crash the app, it bricked the entire smart access system! Now all I can get is a blank screen. It's complex to get set up in the first place (the order you have to plug things in and then open the respective device's programs is a joke) and the instructions on setup are lacking detail. It might as well read 'plug it up and good luck'
Wait for Apple CarPlay to mature and go that route instead. It seems to at least work, as limited as it is at the moment.

Wish I could drive without constantly messing with this crappy app
Update not working! No surprise 😤
Has potential
Smart access is a great feature for idevice users. Unique platform, isn't offered with other manufactures--other manufacturers such as Kenwood, pioneer, alpine, etc. all use a similar UI which is actually quite horrid and slow to use. Clarion's cloud-based platform is much quicker and surprisingly seamless. The only upset of the smart access is the lack of apps and it's limitation due to the short comings of the apps available.

Ios7
Not working needs update to work on ios7
Stupd app
Bought the nav expecting to use with my iPhone. But guess what?! This ship never works. Plus, it chases iPhone keyboard. You need to restart your phone in order to get it back.
Looking forward to NX503 Q2
I'm looking forward to using this with the all new NX603 in Q2 and my iPhone 5. Clarion seems to have it all going on compare to the competition.
Available apps?
I downloaded this app after purchasing the Next Gate from Clarion...it looks and works great so far but I'm confused because several of the shown apps (VL4car, contacts4car, weather4car, news4car) are not listed under "recommended" or in the app store...are these just not available yet since the smart access platform is newer?
