    Phone app glitch?

    Anyone having issues with the LR phone app?

    Yesterday when I was about to check the amount of fuel in it, I was able to access someones RR in London.

    I was initially puzzled as it was showing that we had driven the car exactly 8 miles daily over the last week, even though we are 3,500 miles away and cars been locked in the garage, since the 21st Dec.

    Was also showing that the car was unlocked, so I managed to lock it from the app. Went from orange to grey.

    It was only when I went into the first page that I realised it was someone else's car I was seeing Shocked

    Not sure whats going on, but where the car is parked, it's a stones throw away from where we originally purchased the car in London.

    Not confidence inspiring in the least. I am wondering if the dealer has access to the cars account, or is someone trying to infiltrate our account with a dummy account Censored

    Managed to get back to the cars account now, but same issues when using Mrs phone yesterday.

    A few discrepancies as showing London being 17 degrees, when it was only about 7 degrees yesterday. The VIN number is highly unlikely and the car reg does not exist, as its on new reg.com?

    A friend had this happen last year with his Sport, he was accessing a car in London as you were.
    It just sorted itself on its own.

    That's a relief.

    Here was me thinking what if someone has access to our account, and starts the car whilst it's the garage, as my cars in the garage along with my motorbikes.

    Major carbon monoxide building up and smoke damage if that was the case.

    Mrs put it down to all the sherry trifle I had, until she logged into the app on her phone. Thought I was winding her up Laughing

    Am just glad I took a few screenshots as proof.

    You seem to be running the old phone app. LR have replaced this with a new version of the app. Search appstore/playstore and get the new one (called Land Rover Remote)

    I tried the newer one, it unfortunately doesn't have the intelligent seat fold option that my earlier app has, therefore I have abandoned the new for and gone back to the old one....

    Slightly off topic but related to it, I have this LR Remote but can not do anything. Cant sound the horn, flash the lights, unlock or anything else. I can see if vehicle is locked and thats about all.

    How do you get everything working?
    Thank you.
