Great app!
Great app, can’t fault it, I also have VCDS and use carista as an “on the go” tool when the laptop is not available, it currently has nowhere near the same functionality as VCDS but is a great addition to use along side it, however, I was lucky enough to be able to purchase this at a small one off cost early in its development and would probably not have paid for it with a subscription system, it is a good tool though!

2015 VW GLI gen 3 ea888.3
I love this app. I knew I wanted to change a few characteristics of how the lights operate, windows operate, and the locking procedure for the car. I was able to change much more than I anticipated through the app and the supporting Carista adapter. Recently this new update came out, claiming that you can change the volume for the stupid sound aktor device Vw/Audi uses, and while most features added to the app work with my car, this one doesn’t seem to even show up as an option to change. I’m even able to change the torque steer compensator; so while the app has tons of features, some may claim to be compatible with your car but not functional. I’ll do 5 stars if the devs can fix the issue or come out and specify which models of Vw/Audi get the sound aktor ability.
EDIT: function doesn’t apply to my vehicle. 5 stars added.

Must have for anyone with a VWAG product
Many of the VW/Audi defaults are incredibly annoying. This app will let you customize the behaviors of all the automated BS to be the way YOU want it to be. I probably would have sold my car without this app.
New cars are AWFUL with all the computerized "features" constantly beeping and flashing at me, turning things on and off when I don't want them too, etc.
This app and the genuine Carista adapter have been worth every penny, and then some. I also use the adapter with other apps to dig performance info out of the car's brain, check and reset fault codes, etc.

Mostly very good
I'm happy with the app overal as it allows customisation of most elements. However some are missing or unclear. Others are shown which are not available / specific to the vehicle.
I am experiencing issues with the alarm arming automatically after shutting but not locking the doors - unable to reset this to factory option / setting which is frustrating!
Could give 5-stars if these issues were absent..
