yeah I understand that, but you can set your window timing for making reaady re-charge having no rush to going there to disconnect, you can set it on https://my.seat/portal/ you can also pre-heat your car, see screenshots for pre-heat is another command on dashboard

I have the same a point 150 mt from my apartment which is also total free of cost, but... I'd like to use my private-box thanks to have shared your thoughts

thanks good to know but if the battery isnt at 0 then it wont need a 3.75 hour charge so wouldn't be worth setting the timer for 3.75- 4 hours. you're lucky to have free chargers where you are. public chargers in London seem to add a premium on the cost to cover parking, My domestic suppliers rates are much lower but I dont really want to get rid f my front garden and the privacy it gives me , just in order to make a drive for a charger.

Has Anyone that has Cupra connect sign in but is saying "Lights on" all the time, when going to the vehicle its locked/no lights are on and boot is closed. I then go into the car turn the lights on then off then lock, then my cupra connect always says its fine. If it done it the once i could understand that maybe i did something wrong, but its done it a few times, nothing is affected battery ETC, and checks all around the car conclude that all lights are indeed off including Interior. Anyone else had this problem seems more a Glitch to me?

My Cupra Connect app tells me that the car is unlocked and the lights are on when they are not. I’ve raised this with cupra and didn’t even get a reply.

It's not very helpful that after a year they would expect us to.pay a subscription for a.service they don't.even correspond to ?

Needless to say I won’t be bothering.

Dont blame you Tormentor, mind i do like to keep an eye on the Car whilst away on Charge i would still consider it as it gives me an update on the Charge % Time on my Hybrid Still would be nice they would respond, i may call the CS team for Help.

why do you need both keys in the car when you activate the account?

 

[darkshadow13]

Yes strange thing that, i guessing you could have borrowed a car from Parents or from your friend in that case they could activate with the 1 key, but i would hate to see that if you lost your key initially you wouldn't be able to activate period.

Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd join this one.
My Cupra connect has now run out and I wondered if anyone else has thought the cost of another year is worth it?
I use google maps on my phone connected through Andriod Auto for journeys, I don't stream music, the App doesn't allow me to start the car remotely (Cupra Ateca petrol), it just doesn't seem to do anything I find useful.
The Ford App I had seemed a lot more useful, so was the Jaguar App. Both of these would allow you to start the car remotely and according to the outside temp would turn on the heating, heated seats and heated windscreen and mirrors, all while keeping the car locked. The Ford App would even tell you the individual tyre pressures, amongst other things.

Well there's 1 thing that temps me is the fact because mines a hybrid it tells me the % of battery whilst charging, so I may do but still not 100% Sold because its also had a lot of false positives, Lights on (when off) Doors unlocked (when locked) but like yourself I find myself using Android Auto a lot too so to be honest its a 50/50 for me at the moment but currently im always going to the Cupra connect app (think its become a demonic finger thing to do on the phone now)

I agree the Jaguar app was great, primarily because of the remote pre-conditioning. And they gave you three years subscription with a new vehicle.

Obviously the battery isn't an issue for me so that's one less thing I would use it for. The App itself would have the issues you mention, i.e. saying doors open when they weren't etc. and also what some others have mentioned about having to sign into the App every time I open it up. Not enough Pro's against Con's in my case I don't think, still willing to hear any positives that could sway me.
Seems that SEAT/CUPRA have a long way to go regarding the usefulness of the App compared to other manufacturers. To say they are part of one of the worlds largest motor groups the technology department could do with taking lessons from some other car makers.

Agree. The Ford one was great as well. SEAT/CUPRA seem well behind in the tech department.

I like journeys info, but I wouldn't pay for it. Cupra App is not that bad. BMW App doesn't show any info about journeys and everything else I can check in the car anyway.

Having had my Formentor just over a week now, I've been reading up on the Cupra Connect and wondering if there is actually any point in downloading and having it. From reading most things there doesn't seem to be anything that is tempting me to have it. In general, is that the case or is there really anything useful worth having it for?

in my opinion if you have android auto its a total waste of time with a non hybrid car.

You don't say how old the car is, if you can still get it for free then try it and see for yourself. For me, and it seems many others, there seems little benefit once you have to start paying for it.

I have an iPhone so use Apple CarPlay, but it’s a non hybrid car.

Car is a week old. I was going to give it a try, but from reading what I have I can’t really see the benefit of even doing that. I had the BMW Connected app for my old 5 Series and latterly 1 Series, which it worked better with, but it still didn’t give me anything really worthwhile and used it a handful of times.
