New version of iSmart on Apple is in km

[Alansurfer]

Every time it updates it resets to km.

 

[JonnyG]

Yeah but this time there is no way to get back to Imperial units as this option has disappeared (bug?)

 

[seaphantom]

Mine did this as well very annoying also if you ask the car what range is left it can only do it in KM not in miles

 

[Quidgebo]

Same issue here.
Was in miles, updated to latest app for iOS and initially remembered miles.
MG forced a logout (timeout, backend system update, whatever reason).

Upon login defaulted to KM yet now latest app doesn’t offer the measurement selection.

 

[Elektrorove]

Yep today I found myself logged out of the app randomly and now its in km too!
Cannot change it back, very frustrating!

 

[JonnyG]

There's loads of commnets now on the Appstore relating to this issue with the app update. Hopefully their app developer will have taken note and will come out with another update soon. My Android phone will switch to Imperial still,

 

[kradnik]

I can add my experience to the others now! Forced logout, logged back in, range now in km with no option under profile to change back to miles. Oh well, first world problem I suppose…just irritating.

The MG salesperson I was talking to this afternoon is having the same trouble on ios with her MG4 & cant sort it out.

This is it in a nutshell - irritating, but not quite the end of the world…

And now, every time I start the car, I get a message in the app asking me to 'please confirm that you know it'... not sure why, as if I don't answer, nothing happens

The KMs thing doesn't bother me, as the car displays the range correctly as Miles

Hi, my iSmart App has updated automatically and I’m on Apple iOS.

But the car battery range is now in kilometres. Obviously I wanted it in miles.

This has happened in the past when the iSmart App is updated, but each time then I have easily found the kilometres versus miles switch to set it to miles. But this time I can’t find it anywhere. Does anybody know where it is?

Many thanks

@MartinSEsr I am having the same issue , I am using IOS

 

[Claire]

It’s no longer in settings. Or I wouldn’t have complained.

My option to change to imperial has also gone completely @MartinSEsr

 

[Claire]

Yes, my app logged me out today for the first time since I got the car (maybe because my phone updated the app?) and now my distance setting is in km and I can’t change it to miles! These are the only settings I’m seeing under Profile

I am having the same issues @StuartT It’s very annoying to say the least seems to be since my iPhone has done a recent update , app logged me out again , previously I was able to go in and change back to the imperial measurement, I want to see my distance in miles ……. End of why have they removed this

You probably have the alarm set to alert you every time the car starts.

Profile>Alarm Setting>Vehicle Start Notification

@MartinSEsr I am running iOS 16.7.1 and the option has disappeared think it might be an email to MG requesting they fix this ASAP !

If anyone from MG is in this forum. Please ask them for a time to resolve the KM to Miles bug. It’s frustrating it being able to select country specific measurements.

Doh… of course. <slap forehead>

It’s easy to convert kms to miles (1.6-ish km to a mile)… and the car will still show range in miles.

 

[MartinSEsr]

We're already calculating using miles/kwh to see how many KWh are needed to get to the destination, converting from KWh to battery percentage, subtracting from 100 to see the % to add on the Ohme home charger, etc. I basically can not be bothered with a totally unncecssary calculation when the app should have imperial and metric like it used to. Sometimes the answer has to be 'f-off MG I've had enough now', rather tha 'ok thanks, let me work around yet another frustrating issue you have created'

This thread is about the iOS version.
I’m pleased yours is ok. But let’s not derail

Wow, there's a version for Cisco. You learn something everyday on this forum
