No updates from the dealer

Dealer did not report the software update on this app

Works but is slow

Awful

It worked perfectly well until the update, now not at all

Needs improvements / buggy

When I use remote start lately the timer notification is persistent in the Dynamic Island even after the timer has expired. No way to dismiss it. Have to uninstall the app, because simply closing it doesn’t work. Additionally the app almost never remains logged in, and requires logging in every time with the email address and password, instead of just staying logged in and using FaceID or a pin to gain access. If they could fix these annoyances, I would feel better giving it additional stars.

Cross Sport

It’s quiet, smooth ride, customize driving options, handles great, 28 mpg on the road, comfortable and wide enough to take a four foot wide sheet of wood: in short, I’d buy again…..good job VW!

Good

Very cool

Brand new car and app doesn’t work

My brand new atlas 2026 has not been online since I got it and the dealer has no answer for it

Crashes

There was an update. Which now auto prompts a video tutorial screen. Crashes EVERY time no matter what option I select at that point. Used to enjoy this app. Not anymore. Literally can’t use it.

An amazing advantage

After 2 major battles with ovarian cancer the pain of driving a combustion engine was unbearable.
An electric vehicle is magic ! It’s like driving a ball point pen…smooth

Keeps getting worse!

Saying to check fuel level.. tank is full. Limited call function. SATs Check tire pressure… but doesn’t say which one. Remote start never works!!

it would be over for me

If someone told me, while I was in my home, 32 feet away from my parked car “hey if you don’t get your car unlocked within 5 minutes with the VW app, you’re going to die.” Naturally you would thing “oh for sure no biggie, I’ll get it unlocked within 5 minutes, I’m living” but actually, that would be the dumbest thing I could think because when I go to open this app, it asks me to do an update, multiple times a day, 6/7 of the week (I don’t drive everyday of the week), and then it signs me out. And then I sign back into my account with my email, and then my pin, and then am welcomed by another update notification. Tell my family I love them

Lock those doors!

Locked me from a mile away! Great job!

Poor

Piss poor app. Never works. Constantly sends errors. Won’t remote start, lock, or unlock vehicle. I miss my Ram

PLEASE!!

Please make a DARK MODE —-SO I DONT BLOW OUT MY RETINA every morning at 5am.

Buttons need to be thicker for easier view. The app needs to be faster to load and reload. More customizable background is a very nice feature that everyone else has already. Come on, this is some basic stuff VW. I would love to make this a perfect app if you would hire me.

Remote start

The app should have remote start

Software is buggy

Way too many problems with a software, especially CarPlay just stops for no reason then it won’t start back up until you shut the car off for a number of hours

Close windows feature

There should be close windows feature in the app

Doesn’t work

When I try to remote start it says I have to delete device pairing yet it locks when I lock it on the app. What good is this if it won’t remote start

Great app

Update the damn thing. You can never get your manual to load. Super slow

Vw app

Awesome app, works well easy to set up.
