[7] MG3 Hybrid i-Smart app set-up video tutorial guide

[MG Clive]

Useful Jerry Pan video tutorial on the iSmart app set up and use.

It's not identical to our UK version, but the video demonstrates it well.

It certainly isn't identical to the UK version of the app. Appears to have a lot more features particularly regarding the sat nav interface. For instance how do you transfer a route from ismart to the car?
BTW responses saying use Android Auto are less than helpful!!

Hi @Cooperman, you can't set up the Sat Nav using iSmart, the navigation on iSmart is just for you to locate and direct you to your car. If you click on 'Find My Car', then 'Navigation', it will guide you to your car.

My point exactly, iSmart Apps in other world regions have additional functionality to allow journey plans, geofencinging, etc. I have seen this in a number of MG3 videos at least one of which was from Australia I think.

Yes, I saw this video and the application is totally different from the one offered in France.

You can't send your itinerary directly to satnav.

It's also a shame that the application doesn't show the statistics for the last journey made, or even the current mileage of the MG3.

Finally, as with the Toyotas, it would be interesting to have the respective percentages of use of the electric motor and the internal combustion engine.

Morning all, I picked up my MG3 hybrid a week ago and cannot get the iSMART app to connect to the car. I have it bound with no issues. Any pearls of wisdom to help?

With Android or ?

Apple, in the UK.

Sorry, I use Android (a proprietary derivative of Linux).

From the few lines I've been able to read, both Carplay and IOS seem less at ease with the MG3 than the Android system.

Ref AC from the App - the UK App has only ‘AC blowing’ and not the two in the video ‘AC’ and ‘AC blowing’ but it also has a temperature slide? Using this seems to have no effect on the AC temperature. When you get in the car it is on ‘LO’ (blowing cold). What is the point of the temperature slide if it’s not useful? Has anyone got any solutions.
