### 2/5 — Not Great

*2026-09-02, version 3.9.0*

This app is not great and it’s not necessary. The phone should just connect to the bike without having to go through an app. One issue I continue to have is that it resets my clock every time I use the app. Which is only about once every few months because this app is not worth using generally speaking it’s mostly just for data collection for Yamaha and for no other purpose for the user.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever.

*2026-08-15, version 3.8.0*

It will take all your access and still not working after new update of IOS. When we can get update?

### 3/5 — Documentation is Poor

*2026-08-13, version 3.8.0*

If people are having trouble… install the Garmin Street Cross app otherwise this is going to fail over and over.

The Street Cross app needs to allow siri control. 

Ive been an app dev this needs to be described better.

If BT firmware fails, if your BT settings turn off constantly, if you cant connect…. This is your solution download the Street Cross app. Ride safe

### 1/5 — Yamaha Connect

*2026-08-12, version 3.8.0*

This app is awful and does not stay connected to the bike. This means that whatever travel is recorded is usually recorded in multiple short segments and rarely records the full distance travelled. A 75km ride will usually be recorded in 5 or more segments and often with significant distance missed completely.

### 1/5 — Não funciona

*2026-08-11*

Depois de atualizar ele não funciona mais.

### 1/5 — Essa moto não merecia esse aplicativo!

*2026-08-09*

Aplicativo péssimo!  Desconecta com muita frequência e para conectar é um parto! Yamaha precisa resolver isso!!

### 1/5 — Desconecta sozinho

*2026-08-08*

Começa funcionando e depois de uns 3 minutos, perde a conexão.

### 1/5 — SUCKS!!!

*2026-08-06, version 3.8.0*

Won’t connect.

### 1/5 — App Not Working

*2026-08-06, version 3.8.0*

This app paired to my bike Yamaha FZS Hybrid but whenever i start my bike bike is not connected to app, Too bad experience please fix this

### 1/5 — Not working on tenere

*2026-08-02, version 3.8.0*

2026 Tenere and app doesn’t work. I did manage to connect once, not it won’t work at all. Shame that Yamaha went backwards because my 2022 tracer 9GT has more functionality

### 1/5 — Requires pairing every time

*2026-08-01, version 3.8.0*

The app won’t reconnect after the bike (2026 T7) is power cycled. I have to delete Bluetooth connection and initiate pairing every time, which is not acceptable

### 1/5 — not very ios compatible

*2026-07-28, version 3.8.0*

From reading into my issues with the app online I’ve found that ios doesn’t work very well with this and other brands seem to work better, would be really cool to use this app to track my rides with my iphone so please update!!

### 1/5 — Não funciona mais

*2026-07-28*

Pessimo

### 2/5 — App disconnects

*2026-07-27, version 3.8.0*

Hopefully the developers fix this app. It connects fine the first time, but if you shut off your motorcycle, it won’t reconnect afterwards. This is an extremely common issue across iPhone users right now (per the forums).

### 1/5 — Horrível

*2026-07-26*

Conexão terrível.

### 1/5 — Connectivity Problems

*2026-07-26*

I purchased this Yamaha bike mainly because of its connected features. Unfortunately, I have not been able to use these features for the last 2 months. A feature that was one of the main reasons for buying this bike has become completely unusable.
I have already tried all the basic troubleshooting steps, including reinstalling the app, reconnecting Bluetooth, and resetting the connection, but nothing has worked.
This is very disappointing because customers pay extra for these connected features and expect them to work reliably. If this is a known issue, please release a fix as soon as possible.
If there is any alternative application or temporary solution available, please let us know instead of leaving customers without a working feature for months.
I bought this Yamaha bike specifically because of these smart features, but for the last two months I have not been able to use them at all. Please resolve this issue urgently.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2026-07-23, version 3.8.0*

After latest apple update; app stopped connecting on iPhone with 2025 Tenere.   Come on Yamaha, you need to get on this please.

### 1/5 — Connectivity

*2026-07-21, version 3.8.0*

Its terrible!
It will not keep connected to the motorcycle for more than 2 minutes
I even tried it on a high end brand new iPhone and did not work as well

I hope Yamaha would fix the issue!

### 1/5 — Can’t get it to pair back again

*2026-07-17, version 3.8.0*

After a year the app no longer wants to pair with my ‘26 T7 even after deleting and starting over. Dealership ill equipped to help pair app to motorcycle again.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on 2025 T7

*2026-07-17, version 3.8.0*

App constantly disconnects

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Total garbage

*2026-09-04, version 3.9.0*

The new update actually made it worse. You have to manually connect it every time you use it and it only stays connected for a few seconds. I guess I was optimistic that Yamaha would fix it. This app is total garbage.

### 1/5 — Yamaha Tenere 2025

*2026-09-03, version 3.9.0*

Suck not
Work  not able to Connect   …. Last version work.

### 1/5 — Why don’t you fix it?

*2026-08-31, version 3.9.0*

You updated the app to version 3.9 yet did not bother to fix the connection issue that everyone is complaining about. The app can connect once and then you have to remove the bike from your Bluetooth list to make it connect the next time. This is not useful for daily use. It used to work many months ago. This app is useless on iPhone as it stands right now.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-08-30, version 3.9.0*

This app is absolute trash. I got it to work one time on my 2025 Tenere and I cannot get it to link up and stay linked up. Yamaha needs to figure this out because this is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — 2026 Tenere 700

*2026-08-29, version 3.9.0*

This is by far the most useless thing I’ve used in a while. 

Every time the bike is started it won’t connect. Have to forget connection and re-pair. The worst. Wish I could give it zero stars.

### 1/5 — Có 0 sao thì sẽ cho 0, chứ 1 sao thì còn ưu ái quá

*2026-08-29, version 3.8.0*

Tuỳ theo tâm trạng của nhà điều hành mà app lúc dùng được lúc không. Bày ra làm gì cho khách bực mình

### 1/5 — Won’t pair.

*2026-08-28, version 3.9.0*

Won’t pair. Worthless. And who came up with the garbage turn signal switch gear?!?  What a liability- the switch, not the designer. But seriously, no dedicated cancel button?

### 1/5 — Worlds Worst App

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

This app makes me question Yamaha as a company. I’m able to connect the bike to the phones Bluetooth but the app constantly fails to connect. If for a magical reason it does connect it loses connection rather quickly. Yamaha…you are global corporation….please hire a few software engineers.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

Can Yamaha engineering investigate the reconnection/ Bluetooth handshake process for the XTZ7S CCU? Your current app ecosystem has software problems that aren’t simply user setup errors.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother downloading

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.0*

Update:

3.9.0 didn’t fix anything for me.
IOS 26.6.1

Just like it has been, it will connect the first time when pairing, and either drop connection with the bike after a few minutes, or won’t auto connect when starting the bike the following time. Still a useless app.
