Had the car two days now and it seems to have gradually connected all the features with the app with the exception of smart key recognition .
It will connect manually through the app and hold the connection for between 1 and 15 minutes before needing to manually connect again to use the thecental locking and boot/ bonnet release . I will be contacting the dealer to discuss the problem Mon a.m. but wondered if anyone has encountered similar problems . The rest of the app functions seem to work but did take over a day to settle down.

Mine has been solid. Have you bound the phone to the car?
 
Yes , that side works O.K.
All the other features are working just the smart key dropout , when the app connects all the fob features work until it drops connection again .
