• Internet connectivity

• Activate a Personal Hotspot on the phone and then connect the car to the phone by WiFi. Being a Landrover however, it will probably forget the phones WiFi SSID and password on every engine start.

• Software 19B now available.

• I had SOTA enabled a month or so ago when on 18 something. A day or so later it popped up saying 19A was available and I let it install that.

• Data usage has just gone through the roof!

• Only seems to affect a few people. At least hardly anyone on here has noticed it. I now know of 2 friends locally with the same issue. Putting the car onto house wifi, engine running and phone plug ...

• Solar Charger.

• I've done 3 weeks in a multistory at the airport with no problems. After 4 days (I think) with the car fully locked it goes into a deeper sleep mode to conserve power. This means you cannot access i ...

• Data usage has just gone through the roof!

• That's mostly correct. It does actually take GPS data from the car according to Apple. However - as soon as I activate CarPlay the data starts churning over on the Car SIM - shouldn't happen! Exactl ...

• Data usage has just gone through the roof!

• Just spoken to a friend who's wife's Velar has eaten through £90 of Ubigi data in the last 2 days. Her car normally lasts the month on 512mb, just like mine used to.

• ULEZ Central London

• Just for a laugh I tried my Caterham 7 registration. It's ULEZ compliant!! I can categorically assure that it is nowhere near compliant in the real world.
  
  My 2019 D5 is ULEZ compliant as well.

• Update to Land Rover Remote App
