Had the app installed on my previous phone after many attempts. The login process should be that cumbersome. Second, refresh my garage doesn't work. Adding it again doesn't allow me to be primary user, if I skip the whole VIN login etc start over again. At the end, was advised to reset vehicle to factory settings (and loosing all setting of the car just for changing a primary user????) This is not customer-friendly and contrary to the spirit of the EV Skoda Enyaq who I love drive in.

This app is a mediocre replacement of the old one, and the support department cannot read. They just assume you're daft and copy and paste some standard referral to a demo video. I am reporting a reproducible bug here: the car manual is NOT accessible if you're offline, no matter whether you've downloaded it or not. I dare you to try it now: turn off wifi and mobile data, start the app and try to read the manual. Your car won't be there. (No phone support, please.)

Hello, you can find the manual to your car under the Digital Connectivity Services button under the 3 dot menu on the car tile in Garage. After activating the usage of this new services and coming back you will find the „Manuals“ button on the same position. Than you can deal with it in this way: see https://vimeo.com/489773070 from 00:20 on.

It baffles me that VW group cannot deliver an app that's actually working. Do you guys even log all the errors and connection attempts? It's insane. It's literally 1kb in data traffic that needs to be send over to an API. Elon is landing rockets on water. I just want to see the energy level of my car in the morning and maybe, maybe start the ac 😭
