Loses connection
Loved the fact I could switch off all the interior lights from the bed at night.
Now the connection fails as soon as I try to operate a function. Thoroughly disappointed.
Mit iOS 26.5.2. unstabil, an sich gute Idee schlecht umgesetzt
Stopped working
Crashes every time I open it !
Using iOS 18,7, should be working!
Please fix it, I now have no app to control the van!
