Odometer Reading In App assumes Car Odometer is Km
This upgrade has an error it assumes car odometer is reading Kilometers & convert it to miles; although the car is set to read in miles. Don’t be surprised if you are in the USA to see the odometer reading in the app is different than the car odometer reading. Just multiply the App reading by 1.61 and you will get the same value as the car odometer. Porsche needs to fix this version of the App.

Does some things well. Fails on others
I have a Taycan and this app does very well on keeping you advised of charging status. Since this is my main objective, I’ll give it a 3 Having said that, the other stuff does not work or, perhaps I just can’t figure it out. Either way, it should be more intuitive. And, for crying out loud, why did they bother to do an Apple Watch version? It has almost no function and doesn’t even look nice. I’d love to be able to check my watch to see if the car was charged.

New update to the app, more failures!!!
This review is in addition the the others I have left regarding the complete dissatisfaction in this app and inability for the Porsche Connect team to solve. I feel I cannot even call the tech support line any longer. I have wasted countless hours with them, only to always be no better off than when I started. I just downloaded the latest update of the Connect App from the Apple Store, in hopes that this is the time where all of the issues are resolved. Wrong!!! It is really too bad that my $130,000 Porsche has the worst experience when it comes utilizing its App and connectivity features. My sons $25,000 Chevy Truck never has issues using OnStar! Porsche-you are failing in this category, you need to fire you digital partner and figure out how to provide consistent, solid support. The pack of call backs and follow through are ridiculous. Consumers, purchase a Porsche for the quality and performance, do not plan on using the App-ever. It will lead to pure dissatisfaction, every time.
