I think they have largely fixed the drain issue on iPhones and the Android version must still need work.
Have you noted drain when driving it? Me music (car play) and FP heated up the phone pretty good. I was not expecting 21% low battery to display for the time I was gone. When I plugged it in it was hot and history was a 45 degree slope starting the time I left. Possible car play / android auto drain?
They did. It's a bug in this specific version, not the new way.
Running Waze or Google Maps is especially power-hungry. Combine that with the fact the Qi-charger doesn't really work and you'll see why I'm back to using USB cables.
What's the new way? No communication between the app and the car when the car is powered off? That would stop battery drain when powered off but is obviously is not ideal and I hope not permanent.
Yes back to usb C appears to be what is required.
Small and easy step taking seconds.
Possibly if I look up I may understand. Are some of the steps backward and do not take seconds but months?
I had pretty close to a 100% success rate with PAAK prior to 3.24 on iOs and an iPhone 12 Pro Max. Since 3.24, it's been a bit flakier. The car isn't waking up when coming within range in the morning in the garage. Bluetooth is connected and the unlock button works, and the key will be recognized, but not the first time to the car of the day, or if it's been sitting for a while.
Our island friend please tell us it is not true. These are minor bugs not flaws and will get better. At least that is what I am hoping and to me it appears Ford takes this all seriously. Us OCD tech freaks need our tech to run absolutely flawlessly or we get grumpy. I think this version did not hit a home run and we all just need to flag it. Going back to the old driver as this one does not work worth a ........
What I'm saying is that this crazy battery drain came in the last version. It's clearly a bug. It's like the app enters a tight infinite loop or something, pegging the CPU. The phone gets warm, and the battery starts draining.
Only when driving for you? Are you bluetooth connected when driving? I will cable again and try next version. 1' USB C still plugged in and we have not stopped trading off the fob. Not a big deal this bug and yes it will be looked at. We all should keep flag them. That will help them keep squashing them.
I'm pretty convinced this is a 3.24 issue I'm having. It's annoying but nothing more. I still haven't pulled the FOB out and have no intention of doing so -- it's nowhere near that bad. I expect that some random bug was introduced, probably from an entirely unrelated bit of code, and will be fixed with 3.25. In the meantime, It's still fine by me.Our island friend please tell us it is not true. These are minor bugs not flaws and will get better.
