### 2/5 — When it works…

*2025-07-10*

When it works it’s great. But I lost count of how many times I’ve had to delete & reload the app to get it to work properly. Sometimes it connects flawlessly for a week or two. Most times it doesn’t.

### 2/5 — Lack of Waze update.

*2024-07-12*

This would be an excellent system if they would update the WAZE interface. It initially interfaced with WAZE.

**Developer response:** Hello,

We are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with WebLink. 
We do support Waze as a navigation solution. Can you please confirm what is your Model of Car Multimedia, as if you do not have Waze available, this is due to a restriction of the manufacturer of the multimedia, not a WebLink related issue.

### 3/5 — Das Gerät::Kenwood DM X5020DABS

*2024-06-02*

Das Radio ist wenn mann es vergleicht mit meinem letzten von eben des gleichen Herstellers zu kompliziert.Die Einstellung ist sehr kompliziert und selbst nach einiger Zeit seit dem ich das habe muss ich ständig zum Verkäufer um Hilfe erhalten. Warum macht man das so kompliziert für die Ältere Generation,bin schon etwas älter und bin sehr an Neu heiten interressirt und habe erst mit 67 Jahren Keyboard und Orgel gelernt und. Bin etwas irritiert das Problem zu haben, bitte um Hilfestellung dieses Problems von der Hersteller Seite,Josef Sachs in Leverkusen 02.06.24. 06,25 Uhr Die Möglichkeit zu suchen in der Aussage für Informationen ist nur in E nglicher Sprache möglich wobei wir in Germany leben??????
  Frage,warum kann man nicht das was seitenlang erklärt in vielleicht 5-6 Sätzen klar und deutlich erklären??????

### 1/5 — I used to think kenwood was quality

*2023-09-18*

Kenwood and WebLink are a janky and sloppy combo.  Find something else if you want consistency or updates.  Ultimately you will find yourself using your smart phone for everything and just being happy if it can manage to simply play your music properly.  So your Kenwood touchscreen and its interface,WebLink, and gps, totally are worthless.
