Agree with most reviewers
By Js00000013 (Pcmac user)
I agree with most reviewers, the app does not meet expectations or marketing image that owners expect from LR and that they promote externally. The app has some decent basic features, but the aggravation of app crashes, long lag time, and the overall process (several clicks) it takes to login/remote start is very frustrating and inefficient. If the devs could simply get the auto/remote start to work I believe that would go a long ways with most owners. Some thoughts below.
- allow quick, fingerprint/touch login as opposed to manually having to type user/pw every time. Especially with the amount of app crashes many experience. This will drastically improve the user’s ability to remotely start their car quickly. Currently too many steps/clicks.
- agree with previous reviewer in regards to allowing capabilities to heat/cool seats within remote start. This would be a huge improvement.
- the newest update has considerably cut down on the crashes I’ve experienced in the past.
- navigation: would be nice if the vehicles navigation system could sync directly up with google maps/Waze and mirror in some way. It’s still Much faster to use my phone (and more accurate, real time traffic), then the in cars nav system.

Great Idea.. but horrible App
By BetBet87 (Pcmac user)
Running the latest update that is supposed to fix errors. I still can not open the app on my phone. It crashes instantly. My watch says my car is on and it’s not!! This is the worst app and feature ever!
Landrover Discovery Sport HSELux -2016
iPhone 6 iOS 11
I constantly get booted out of the app and have to log back in by entering email address and password. Where is the touch capability log in; or at least a remember my email and password?It crashes all the time and is unreliable. It takes forever to connect to the vehicle to unlock/start, etc or doesn't work at all. The LR keyfobs do not have a remote start button so your only option is to ATTEMPT to use the app. I found the user/terms agreement on the app, which was helpful. I didn’t realize that after your warranty is out on the LR you have to pay to continue to use the app. 2 years later and the IPhone as well as Iwatch apps are still slow, unreliable and a Joke. I'm not sure it deserves 1 star! This is a rip-off. To my knowledge Apple has not started to make a vehicle. LR should stick to vehicles and utilize Apple’s CarPlay. I'm not sure it deserves 1 star! It makes me wonder if the users giving rave reviews are LR employees or paid for or are possibly a Unicorn. Cmon, Landrover you can do better!

By far the worst of the worst, I feel like an idiot
By Thebadclam (Pcmac user)
I’ve had a RR supercharged before which was fast and nice but had all kinds of electronic issues, that was like 10 years ago. I Just Recently got a 2017 Cadillac Escalade for my wife with every imaginable option for her and my kids. The electronics and cell phone remote work First time every time in every way!! I also Just got the 2017 Range Rover sport supercharged for myself about a month ago, thinking after 10 years they must have worked all their issues out, especially after grilling my salesman about my past experiences regarding the same. Well, the electronics are buggy at best, the remote app for my iPhone 7 Plus never, ever, ever, works to start the car. There is no voice text, etc. fast engine V5 510 horsepower, looks nice but 20k more for nothing!! POS. Just wish I didn’t have 3 years to go on this lease. How disappointing for more money (almost 100k) and so much less functional!!!! So my advice from life lessons learned, forget the vanity and get what works. Big ego check, I Knew I was passed the insecurities (of needing a premium name vehicle) and liked how the vehicle looked. Anyway, we live and learn!! Hopefully some others will benefit from my experiences. Best of luck to you all!

Awful, not usable!
By DarethL (Pcmac user)
I recently purchased a Range Rover Evoque. I was quick to get the app so I could use the same common features I had on my former car, a GMC Acadia. This app is terrible! Never, not once, has it successfully run! My GMC app never glitched and was used daily to start my car and monthly to report diagnostics. I figured with Range Rover it was be a no-brainer that the app would be top-of-the-line. After all, remote apps are pretty basic with today’s technology. NOPE!
I emailed customer service to update my ownership. It wasn’t completed properly, so I ended up calling the following day. I spoke with a lovely lady who got everything setup correctly. Excited to try out my new app, I tried remote starting my car. The app would spin and spin, then glitch out and shoot me back to my home screen. I tried again several times over the span of a month or so, while on different WiFi and LTE alone. Nothing works.
I contacted the dealership, who informed me that the app works with iPhone 8 and older only. WHY??? Most people able to afford a RR can also afford the latest technology. So with an iPhone XR, I’m out of luck. I’m extremely disappointed by this app and hope a major update is done soon.
