VOC app improvements - what would you want?
Few improvements would be nice for VOC app.
1. Option for it to notify my phone when the engine is started, rather than when the alarm goes off. If somehow a thief has got the key from the house, and I'm sitting at work, I'd know there's something amiss. 2. Be nice to have it updating the VOC app in real time when the car is in use. At present, i can only see where the car has been when it is started up, and where it finishes once the engine is switched off. When the car is being driven, all it tells you is that the car is "in use". Obviously my wife doesn't like my suggestion of option 2. Her workmates were freaked out enough when i sent her an email from the VOC app with her journey details for her business mileage claim about 5 minutes after she'd got out the car with them. Their view was that I was creepy given i was sitting in an office 30 miles from where they'd just stepped out the car and I knew where they'd been |

Agree, I'd like to be able to communicate with the car, at least to get current location even when it is in use. The current message suggests the function is not available while the vehicle is in use for 'safety' reasons, which I don't get.
I'd also like it if the app could log my full journey route, rather than just the start and end point. Above all, I'd like to see the communication between the app and the car speeded up. A message from the app to the car to say start ending or unlock doors is only tiny piece of information, I don't understand why it takes so long to get through. Ability to close any windows which the car reports as left open would also be good. How about being able to adjust the climate after a remote start. :wq
