We Connect Changes
« on: 03 January 2022, 19:00 »
Haven’t used the car over the last few weeks that much but went out today and noticed to alert from the app to advise the car had moved out of a zone I set up.

Going in to the app it looks like there are no options for any kind of alerts any more.

Anyone know why this is?

Yep looks like it's gone..

No idea why I can't see how it has any impact on anyone, the nav options are still there so a bit odd that one has been removed.

Yep, gone. Never used it anyway as my immobiliser has a Geo Fence function.
We Connect has scared me a couple of times when it throws a wobble and tells me all windows are open and it’s unlocked😳😂

Had that before   :grin:

I liked the geo fencing ability for when I was away from the car.  I know it would change anything but it was nice to know it hadn't moved if that makes sense. I guess no great loss, but its not the first time features have been removed and there's not a lot left now.

You should have received an email a few weeks ago saying the services were being discontinued.

No me neither....

Nice to have to see them when it's being serviced and I can watch the doors/bonnet being opened then any test drive.

It's just speed alerts and area alerts. I got an email on 25th November saying due to international legal challenges and data protection they were removing the alerts.
