Kia stops improving this app

Using for the past 3 years. Didn’t see any remarkable difference neither from User interface nor feature.

When the door opens, it alerts but when the door is closed it does not alert.
Suppose we remote start from app, and set the AC to 27’cand remote start, however, AC will start at the last temperature set
There r many more….

Looks like the developer has stopped developing this app

Driving history not accessible

Driving history of greater than 3 months old suddenly disappear please check

Things need a lot of improvement

Remote functions does not work all the time. They use Vodafone network which is bad in all the areas. The maps are not that great. No major upgrades so far.

Still in 2000 - worst UI

App Store Review (2★)

The driving history is completely inaccurate. Instead of showing the actual route, GPS coordinates, and locations visited, the app displays the same default map and default location names for every trip. This makes the driving history unreliable and almost useless.

The UI also feels outdated and needs a major refresh. A tracking app should accurately display the real start and end locations, route, and coordinates, but this app fails at the most basic functionality. Please fix the map data and modernize the overall experience.

Worst Experience

This could have been a wonderful app given the features but doesn’t function or respond 70% of the times
