Default Anyone else's app gone to cack?

XC60, 2018.

For some reason since the last few app updates I cannot seem to send into *to* the car.

So no remote start, send locations etc. But I seem to get info *from* the car, so journal and location all work.

App and phone all up to date and the diagnostics are green across the board.

Re-installed the app & hard restarted the phone multiple times.

The only time i got it working was when i was literally standing next to the car after a 10 min drive back home.

Anyone else, or just me?

Just you, mine works fine.
It could be cars' location, maybe poor reception in the area?
Your tried phone and app on strong WiFi to exclude problem with the phone?
Finally, try installing it on another phone.

Smile scan ..

not that i have a clue what app your using,, but if it uses a wifi connection, could you have some other stronger signal swamping yours in the location,, try a wifi app that scans the different channels and see what it reports ? also try in places well away from likely wifi use.. wifi analyser by kevin yuan is a good one on android.

I've recently had issues (again) with switching my car on from my Apple Watch on the cold mornings. Very hit and miss, however switching the car on from my iPhone app seems fine. Software always seems buggy especially when they do a major app update. Just got use to it over the years!
