What do I need before connecting my vehicle?
Before you start, make sure you have:
1
A compatible vehicle that supports the required connected-service/telematics features.
2
An active manufacturer connected-service account (the account used for your vehicle’s official app/portal).
3
Your login details ready (and access to your email/phone for verification codes).
4
A stable internet connection on your phone (Wi‑Fi or cellular).
5
The latest version of the Smartcar app installed.
Recommended checks:
• Ensure your vehicle has cellular coverage in your area.
• Disable VPN/Private DNS temporarily if it blocks authentication pages.
• Allow permissions requested during setup (network, notifications; location if used for features).
