New to the forum etc., but a couple of months ago bought a new Macan T. It's ok, but I'm not blown away by it. However, I find the My Porsche mobile app really poor - patchy operation at best and absolutely eats the battery on my iPhone, even when the app isn't running (and I've background refresh turned off as well). Anyone else get this - is it a known thing?

Porsche software is very poor - they perhaps use the same IT consultants as the NHS...

No issue here with battery usage and the MyPorsche app. What phone are you using? I'm on iOS.

No problem with battery drain from the MyPorsche App using a Samsung S22 Plus. The App works fine for me, except and with an ongoing issue of sending a route from App to PCM.
