Much improved, but still has some basic UX flaws – MyHyundai with Bluelink Review

I've been using this app for about a year and a half at this point so I can honestly say it has improved. However, it's still quite buggy. If your car's alarm has gone off and you didn't stop the alarm yourself with your keys, you won't be able to use the remote start feature. I had this happen and Blue Link support couldn't help me at all. They told me to take it to a dealer. I'm a software engineer so I tracked down the issue myself. If this happens to you, just trigger the alarm with your keys and unlock it with your keys to stop the alarm. Remote start should work for you after that. I also just discovered that you have to tap a button for the car finder to update its current location. That should probably happen when you navigate to that page. Even if you have to wait for it to load, it's better to show no data at all rather than bad data. And for those users complaining about force updates - get over it. Every app has to force update from time to time. If you don't like it happening over 4G then turn off automatic updates. That's not Blue Link's fault. And stop complaining about paying for it! Is it a bit pricey at $100 a year? Yeah, maybe. But building software and running servers 24/7 to support it isn't cheap either. Some nice to haves for this app would be turning on the seat warmers remotely and the rear defrost. Also, why doesn't the car finder work if you are over 1 mile away from your car?
