Me encanta

Que buena aplicación definitivamente. No le saco el mejor provecho pero me sirve de mucho cada vez que la necesito.

Good app but maintenance outages are unacceptable

It’s 2026. Your app should be highly available when one segment is down for updates another segment should kick in.

Mostly been stable lately but they had some noticeable bugs and calling Kia support is about as useful as pray to the Sun God. When the subscription expires there is exactly zero chance id pay for the service.
