What is this?
So an app for your MG, but only if it’s a version that is covered by the app, the rest can do one, just great!
Could do more
Good little app but missing some easy fixes such as being able to customise the settings of the car rather than use the dashboard. Range is always in KM and not miles.

App will not recognise car -stopped working!!!
Works fine..?
I saw so many negative reviews and was apprehensive! But it works absolutely fine for me! I can see remaining charging time. I can see the remaining petrol, battery range and manage the climate and even find my car. Can unlock/lock it too. What else do you want.
Mediocre
Can’t use it on more than one mobile. Annoying. Charging adjustment range adjuster doesn’t appear more often than not so you can’t change the setting. Get the basics right. This is basic stuff that makes it a poor customer experience.
The iSmart app?
Useful for remotely checking the doors are locked, charge level, locking the doors if you have forgotten and setting temperature-de misting front and rear windows.
Won’t remotely shut the windows. No long press on the key fob to do this either. Day to day, hardly used.

Diabolical
Can only use one device at a time to be connected. If the car has 2 users forget it!!!!
Poor
Unable to log in from the start a pointless app don’t bother
Where’s the manual
Where has the actual manual gone for my new ZS hybrid +trophy? All I have now is an agenda in the app with no images or direct instructions on navigation for example
CHARGE MANAGEMENT
App was working well until the latest update. Cannot use Charge Management now
Zero Stars is More Appropriate
Purchased a new MG HS PHEV and the car will NOT Bind. I’m not the only new owner either with the problem.
Needs more functionality
It has the potential to do so much more. For example heat the seats prior to getting in. Warning when the 12V battery is getting low. Send notifications.
Wrong Car Image
I have an IM5 Performance model but the image in the app is of the standard or long range model. The performance wheels are different
Reliability
Needs to be more reliable. Battery status on Hybrid + models would be helpful.
Useless for more than one driver
My husband and I share this car we cannot both be logged into the app at the same time. I text him to ask to start the heating system on it. Our Volvo has the same remote start feature and we can both be logged into the account at the same time.
He can send authorisation links which only usually last a day.

Could be better
The IM6 is a fantastic car and I’m really enjoying it, but the iSMART app needs improving. Owners should be able to see the vehicle’s software version, infotainment version and check for updates directly in the app. At the moment the car simply says “Software Up To Date” without showing the installed version, making it impossible to know if you’re running the latest software or to discuss updates with the dealer. Adding software version information and update history to iSMART would make ownership much easier and reduce unnecessary dealer visits.
However the app map feature is pointless. It’s basically Apple Maps but has no information from the car as to what the range is, would you need to charge it before you start the journey. This part of the app is clearly so removed from the actual car that it’s actually pointless until this feature is included.

Needs improvement
Very slow to update, not very many functions, settings (like units) don’t stick when you change them. Not the best car app I have used.
Rubbish
Wasn’t very good but worked 70% of the time. Since the new update it’s useless. Does the app developer not trial/test the update before the release??? I doubt it as it’s not garbage.
Solid app
I’ve only had my car a week but this seems like a solid app. I’ve had no problems so far. Only reason I dropped a star was the lack of customisation of the car in the app so it matches my car.
