4. Find my car

You can also back up your vehicle settings in the Kia Connect app and apply it to your car, as well as store your favorite addresses and send it to your car from the app.

You'd think after 5 years, it would have improved! Just back from the continent where suddenly our vehicle range was being vastly under-reported - it misinterpreted our miles reading in the vehicle as kilometres and 'helpfully' converted it to miles. So, e.g., a remaining range of 100 miles in the car was shown as 62 miles in the app. But now we've been home a week, it's still doing it! 505 mile range in the car is 313 in the app. Good grief!

I've come back to this because the new Kia app is so bad. This app lets me see the state of charge and status without having to hunt for it. it also lets me have a single button for lock and unlock which is a must because the connection to the car is often delayed. Toggle buttons leave me wondering whether the car has been told to lock or unlock. You can't be sure that you've just asked the car to lock off you can't rely on feedback to show the current status. the new app is not fit for purpose.

Instead of progress, we are constrained with each update (vehicle settings, user profile update etc.). Although KIA is producing futuristic cars, there is insufficient application support. They were unable to even add remote start functionality. Even in harsh winter conditions, I can operate my Ford Fiesta remotely and it is ready for commuting...
