### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-07-13, version 2.7.17*

The app is extremely slow to respond and sometimes takes multiple times trying to accomplish the same task before it works

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-10, version 2.7.17*

This app has worked maybe 1 month out of the 2 years I’ve had the car. I can’t believe it’s never been fixed. It hasn’t refreshed in months.

### 1/5 — Acura doesn’t care

*2026-05-24, version 2.7.15*

Clearly, with Honda exiting EVs those of us who got a ZDX are forgotten by Honda. The Acura EV app is a perfect example. It never worked well and now Honda has no incentive to fix it. The ZDX is my first and will be my last Honda product.

### 1/5 — Owner

*2026-05-13, version 2.7.15*

The app is dreadful. The commands either take 10 minutes to complete or just don’t work at all. It’s mind blowing how little effort is seemingly being spent on this…or maybe it isn’t since they stopped producing the car

### 1/5 — Slow

*2026-05-09, version 2.7.15*

Too long to respond. Not efficient

### 1/5 — Acura app

*2026-05-07, version 2.7.15*

The worst app ever. EVs these days have the intelligence & built-in AI & should be fast. This app apparently was built for Stone Age cars. Very very slow

### 1/5 — Can’t connect

*2026-04-09, version 2.7.15*

like others have reported, the app is useless cause it can’t connect to the car, even while sitting inside the car. It used to connect more regularly but since Feb, it connected only twice.

### 1/5 — What a mess!

*2026-04-02, version 2.7.14*

This app means well. But falls short in many way. The connection times out. Refresh doesn’t work. In a world of instant connectivity this app can take up to 20 seconds to send a command. 

Many many issues a major disappointment.

### 1/5 — Inconsistent & Frustrating

*2026-03-28, version 2.7.14*

Usually, you have to refresh several times before you get the expected results. Sending commands to the car rarely works. 

Whoever developed this app needs to go back to the drawing board and create something that actually works!

RE: Developer Response

All support does is tells you to reinstall the app and/or keep the key away from the phone when trying to use is. 

I’ve reinstalled the app numerous times. Same result. 

And the bit about the key? Seriously?

Update: this app is still horrible.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-03-27, version 2.7.14*

This app occasionally works! Most of the time it cannot communicate with the car and sometimes it takes a long time for it to perform a command!
