Land Rover Route Planner 4+

The location of the vehicle in this “Route” App is usually incorrect. It’s often some random point on a previous journey. It’s suggesting my car is currently on the middle of the QE2 Bridge over the Thames. The “Remote” App is correct all the time, so why this app can’t sync is random.
When planning a route, it first suggests I walk to the car (some 30 miles away) to drive to my location.
Even if I get in the car and connect the phone to it, it still directs me to where it thinks the car is.
This should be a perfect app for planning a route before sitting in the car with everyone waiting for you, but it fails every time.

Don’t be swayed by any of Landrover’s apps. They are pretty much all rubbish and this is no better. This app is so infuriating. I’m trying to plan a route from a place here in Austria to a place in Italy. First, the app insists that the car is about 280 miles away in Germany. So I suppose the £96,000 Vogue that I can see through the window is just a cardboard cutout then. I cannot get the app to see the car here. Second, whenever I try to plan a route, it insists that it is too far to walk. There is nowhere in the app where I can tell it that I’m not walking, ‘cos I’ve got a RANGEROVER!!!! Landrover have done these apps on the cheap. Better if they had not offered them at all. Waste of time.

This app is supposed to let you plan a route which will then automatically sync to your vehicle. While it will do the former, it hasn’t been able to do the latter for 2 years now in my case. Land Rover state they are aware and “due to technical advances will not be providing a solution or update…you will only be able to sync a route from the main InControl website…”

What’s the point of this app then, why hasn’t it been removed from the store and when are we going to get an app that uses these ‘technical advances’…?!
