Ratings and Reviews

Rating: 1.5/5 based on 7+ reviews

1 ★ Not updated for over a year. Spotify has recently disappeared from the list, the Music app is redundant as is the Contacts app, the car/phone take care of those functions, the Memo app has disappeared, but then that never worked in the first place, and the Calendar app doesn't have much use anyway. There are 2 (expensive) navigation apps (why would you need more, and why are the better than the one in the car?). No common Android apps at all. All in all a complete waste of electrons!

1 ★ Unfortunately 1 star rating is lowest. This has only 8 apps. None which add any real value to my driving experience. Since I first installed and uninstalled , I reinstalled to see if any improvement. Number of apps has even been reduced. It seems to be developed purely for the sake of advertising, to say we have an incontrol app. Useless and was a waste of my time trying it out.

1 ★ Limited number of compatible apps lets this down. There have not been any new apps added for quite some time but some have been withdrawn. With Tom Tom and Spotify apps being discontinued, without any real reasons given, there's little point in using this app. If Jaguar put some effort into developing this app and adding more compatible apps then using this could be a much better experience. Very annoyed with removal of Spotify, so downgraded rating to 1 star.

1 ★ The USB only connectivity and lack of supported apps don't really make this App an essential requirement for the owners of a Jaguar vehicle. The only reason I have used this App in the past is down to the availability of Spotify but now that seems to have been removed leaving only a poor selection of paid for premium or not very useful apps. Will be unlikely to use this app again and n the future and will most likely uninstall.

1 ★ On my car Spotify crashes the system in the car, displaying only a black screen when Incontrol Apps is selected and not recovering until the car is turned off and on. TomTom have failed to keep their app up to date, it doesn't work with Android 9 This is an awful system (made by Bosch and called mySpin), JLR knows it and Android Auto has replaced it in newer models. Better to use in-built sat nav and Bluetooth did music.

1 ★ Pointless, not enough apps. And the one decent one they had was Spotify they got rid of BRING BACK SPOTIFY

1 ★ Potentially great, actually very poor. Limited access to apps renders it pretty useless. Syncs first time every time for me but until such time that it is compatible with Google apps its a bit, well redundant. Can't access Google Music, Maps etc. Get the app availability sorted and it could be a winner

1 ★ so difficult to use, limited apps, you have to plug in to the USB and unlock your phone. it is only marginally better than a 1980s dial up modem! come on Jaguar, I spent over £80,000 on an F Type and this is what you get!!! very disappointing.

1 ★ This app has the potential to make up for the very limited entertainment system in my Jaguar but it néeds to support the apps people actually use - Android Auto, mirror link, Google Maps. Come on JLR, show you listen to your customers. As a quality manager myself, I can't help but notice the absence of any response to these reviews from Jaguar. This suggests a) you don't read them or b) you don't care, which is it?

1 ★ Since removing Spotify, which was the only useful app that JLR allowed has made this app a very poor app indeed. Not to mention the lack of development in making more apps available such as Google maps, Waze etc. It is clear that JLR has focused on their Touch Pro system and not accommodate for those with the standard Touch system which is very disappointing!!

3 ★ Jaguar you are so close with this one! in my opinion this has the potential to be better than both mirrior link and Android connect! I hate the skins on both, Jaguar Apps is clean and the spotify controls are much better than both the aformentioned Apps. This app is just missing one thing and that messaging connectivity. If i could add whattsapp, messanger and my phones messaging system i would give this 5 stars.

1 ★ This was great with Spotify and was a better experience than Google Auto. Now with that removed it leaves a lot of useless apps.

1 ★ The only decent app was Spotify which was removed on 30th Sept 2019. Now completely useless! Infotainment is a big tick for me when choosing a car and Jaguar is such a let down. There is no consideration given to the customer and miles behind rivals. Sorry Jaguar, next car will definitely not be one of yours!

1 ★ This app and the InControl Touch model infotainment system used to be passable because at least it had Spotify. That app just dissapeared from the selection of seven total apps available. Jaguar could have at least worked with Google to add an Android Auto app to InControl before abandoning Jaguar owners with a car that's still under factory warranty.

1 ★ Very poor, just like all other reviews, app does not work. Very basic, phone has to be connected and unlocked, Spotify will only work in offline mode at best, which you may as well just use Bluetooth for. Please fix this.
