### 1/5 — Horrible app, nothing works

*2026-08-11, version 2.92*

Its unbelievable how bad this app is. This is probably one of the worst apps I have used. Especially now that there are coding agents, one could fix all these issues people are reporting. I could have installed another dash cam from another company and got a better chance at connecting to the dash cam. With this, I couldnt even establish a connection.

### 1/5 — 最悪

*2026-07-29*

アプリ使えない
改善してください

### 1/5 — Cannot connect

*2026-07-13, version 2.92*

I cannot connect to the apps wifi. The preset network in the app does not match the network that comes up on my phone so the password doesn’t work. There is no way I can change the network name in the app. When I try enter the network on my phone from the app, it doesn’t work either because the network doesn’t exist.

### 1/5 — iPhone fails to connect

*2026-07-04, version 2.92*

Apparently there is a know issue for the latest iPhones connecting to the UTR. So my Audi Garage tells me. Also, if there is a software update for the UTR it is not possible to do with the latest iPhones. If it’s a know issue why has it not been fixed!

### 1/5 — 재랄맞은 어플

*2026-06-03*

도데체가 어쩌자는건지;;;
언제쯤 될랑가

### 1/5 — Diabolical Product

*2026-05-11, version 2.92*

The absolute and total uselessness of this product cannot be overstated.

It just does not work, no matter what you do this app refuses to cooperate and provide you with the features you have paid for when buying the accompanying Audi UTR hardware.

For the sake of your sanity do not buy the Audi UTR product or you will very quickly regret it.

### 1/5 — 高額な価格設定に見合わぬ低水準なスペックにサポート

*2026-05-06*

MY25在庫車からの不本意な購入。
ほぼほぼアプリは繋がりません。
事故が起こったらすぐにメモリを外し、自宅のPCで確認。運が良ければ写っていますよっていう代物。
星一つすらあげたくない。

### 1/5 — 使い難い

*2026-04-08*

重すぎる
期待しないほうがいい

### 1/5 — What a shocker!

*2026-03-29, version 2.92*

I couldn’t agree more with the previous reviewer, this is an awful App and the front and rear cameras are frankly unusable. My Audi has had to go back several times after the dulcet German dialect tones of “Please Check Rear Camera” constantly chime. Save yourself a fortune and don’t touch this hardware or App, go get yourself a decent Nextbase Dashcam installed, Halfords do a better job and their customer service is far superior than the after sales service by most of the UK Audi dealers.

### 4/5 — Unfixed bugs

*2026-03-21, version 2.92*

Hardware is great and the app works well except for one (important) issue: connecting with the camera on iPhone is impossible unless you know how. I am only able to connect if I put my phone in airplane mode and then connect to the WiFi. This should’ve been fixed by now.
