Volkswagen App with ID Software 4.0 in my VW Id.7

[@highlanderes]

Awesome overview - no precondition batttery button or scheduling? For living in an apartment and a winther morning drive to a charger two minutes away, would otherwise not work.

As a software developer, I can't express enough how much I dislike the excessive software in new cars. It's often complex, borderline useless, and sometimes outright dangerous. Thank you for all of your videos, however. Although I watched nearly all of them, buying a VW EV is not an option for me. Half-baked products at best.

[@UndefeatedDeity]

Tesla has the best software by far and full 4G coverage over all of EU.

[@Ty-ls5xg]

I've owned Tesla and 5 other EVs ...I'd say Polestar software(android) is superior to Tesla by a fair margin.

[@the_amazing_raisin]

Can't really see much difference to the app with that have 3.2 installed. Looks like the car syncs a bit faster I guess newer features will probably be 4.0 only from here onwards...

[@BatteryLife]

No difference at all

[@janpeterson9586]

Is Spotify that comes with Connect plus without commercials?

[@matthewbaynham6286]

I like the magic hat that appears and disappears in the blink of an eye.

[@BatteryLife]

I know. It was a big trick

[@ZENVIDEOS]

Hi, I have a my 2024 ID7 and still haven't got the 4.0 software. My car says 3.6.0 and app says 3.5.0 software. Where a d hiw do I get it? Is it the siftware in the app or its the software on the car?

[@codrin84]

Why you cannot open/close the car? On other VW group cars you can but on electric you can't?

[@BatteryLife]

Same question here

[@hliebold]

Hi. Could you tell us what Car Scanner reports as "Maximaler Energiegehalt der Traktionsbatterie"?

[@BatteryLife]

77.000 Wh/km

[@hliebold]

@@BatteryLifeok, nice. My Enyaq iV80 is already down to 71.000Wh after 45k km. Looking forward to the new Enyaq 85. Hopefully that one also comes with 77 kWh.

Can you use Plug & Charge even if you have the We Charge free subscription? Which operators support Plug & Charge?

[@BatteryLife]

Yes. Ionity, Aral pulse, maybe more

[@pavelblaha5243]

Can I use my own internet data plan to connect ID.7 car to the internet instead of paying for the car's internet connectivity from Volkswagen?

[@BatteryLife]

I think so.

[@TheBrainos]

Sorry, but is there any difference to what I have in my ID.3 right now? Didn't spot any.

[@BatteryLife]

No

[@ruffmadman]

Your ID.3 has software V4?

[@2luki]

What about Plug&Charge?

[@BatteryLife]

Was shown in the video 😉

[@2luki]

@@BatteryLife Thanks, I will check

[@tomquimby8669]

Can you explain that please are you saying that the navigation does not work at all without the subscription. or just the live data navigation enhancements? After watching this it has reinforced my idea of simple. I will buy my next car based on basic spec with as many addons not fitted as possible.

[@BatteryLife]

You have to ask a dealer. It can be different in other countries

[@tomquimby8669]

@@BatteryLife So what you are inferring is to get an ID7 without all the onerous complexity is to search the different countries and probably import the car from outside of the EU. Because as is your car is a non starter for somebody who just wants to drive his car without ALS and a 3 minute start routine via your phone.

[@TheBrainos]

I thought there will be a new steering wheel in the ID.7?

[@BatteryLife]

who said that?

[@TheBrainos]

[@oijhhytdirhrbru]

The app is absolutely way better than the one in our market, which is literally a bloatware focusing at marketing, community and shopping.

[@BatteryLife]

Sorry to hear that

[@Pupuzor]

So glad I got Tesla...

[@BatteryLife]

Tesla App rules !

[@Pupuzor]

@@BatteryLife Not only that, the whole pay2connect per year is nuts.
