### 1/5 — Charging mode time slot doesn’t keep

*2026-08-24, version 6.7.5*

The charging time slot keeps changing on its own to seemingly random times.  I have repeatedly set the charging schedule so that my car charges overnight while I’m sleeping, but the time slot keeps changing without me making any changes.

As a result, I wake up expecting my car to be charged, only to find that it hasn’t charged at all.  This has happened multiple times and has seriously disrupted my schedule because I then can’t drive the car as planned.

A scheduled charging feature needs to be reliable.  I should not have to constantly check whether the charging time has changed on its own.  This is incredibly frustrating and defeats the entire purpose of having a scheduled charging feature.

Please fix this issue as soon as possible!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-08-23, version 6.7.5*

The APP keeps asking my for my address in the US and I’m not in the US. So it wouldn’t work without this information. Simply does not work.

### 1/5 — App is awesome but...

*2026-08-20, version 6.7.5*

App doesn't honor the "no marketing communication" and keep sending push notifications for promotions etc And it happened again with a SiriusXM "offer" even with marketing preferences turned off, and again for some other "event".

### 4/5 — Missing small feature

*2026-08-20, version 6.7.5*

My car is setup to fold mirrors as well as lock doors with the fob. Why doesn’t this app fold the mirrors in when I lock it with the app? Add this feature please

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2026-08-19, version 6.7.5*

Disconnects from the car for no apparent reason. Does not update via the Apple App Store so full reinstall needed for troubleshooting. Feels like windows 3 all over again. Should not be happening in 2026!

### 4/5 — Great App with a few clutches

*2026-08-19, version 6.7.5*

The app is great overall it just doesn’t always update service that’s already been done.  And I’m still waiting for the low tire pressure warning to go away.

### 1/5 — Get a Mercedes

*2026-08-18, version 6.7.5*

Very unpredictable when it will
Work. Not worth it

### 1/5 — Push Notification Ads

*2026-08-14, version 6.7.4*

The fact that I cannot turn off push marketing notifications is insane. When I go to do so, the app gives me a “sorry not available” message. I am assuming that is intentional. I could go out and buy a cheap car that doesn’t give me ads.

### 1/5 — Glitchy app

*2026-08-12, version 6.7.4*

It’s tiring to constantly have to reconnect my BMW financial info to the app. Whenever there’s an update it seems to disconnect, but when I attempt to reconnect it, there’s always an error.

### 1/5 — Literally Unusable

*2026-08-09, version 6.7.4*

I bought my car 9 months ago, and since then I’ve been unable to log into the app the whole time. Which also means I can’t select my profile in the car since that requires verification. I was a software PM so it’s not simply user error. Absolutely garbage app. I wanted my next car to be an electric BMW but given how much that depends on usable software, I’m ruling it out.
