Welcome to the Smart Remote App for the new Mulsanne. Mulsanne passengers are now afforded the luxury of accessing infotainment functionality and selected navigation information through the new Bentley Smart Remote App. Passengers in the rear cabin are now able to have control of the Infotainment features as if they were sitting up front, adjusting the media source, skipping tracks and adjusting sound settings. Navigation information, such as time to destination,  can also be monitored. The intelligent functionality makes every journey more comfortable and satisfying. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. *Always pay careful attention to the road and do not drive while distracted. Limitations apply.

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Bentley Smart remote at 2.7 against Wallbox Service App's 1.7. Bentley Smart remote also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 11.0).

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bentley Smart remote holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallbox Service App has 27 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Bentley Smart remote's written reviews are positive against 5% of Wallbox Service App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
