Not possible to bind multiple phones at once. If it is bind to phone A, phone B can get into the same email account and password, it will connect to the car straightaway but kick out the phone A at the same time. The same applies to Phone A when it reconnects.
Important to know, is that the “connect” button will not show if the vehicle is already connected/bind to an account (previously owner or such as that) .Then the car needs to be unbind by the previous owner or by MG.
Why do they make the UI navigation different across MG4 SE vs Trophy? (“Essence vs Excite” that is) - why not have parity lol. I just upgraded from an SE to a Trophy through the work electric car scheme, and i spent so long looking for this! Thanks for the video
By far this is most detailed & organised tutorial, I’ve seen for ismart. However, I’m still not able to bind :( I’m using iPhone 15 pro and have picked My MG4 just two days back. One dealer says it’s not available yet! But I see you put this video just 2 weeks back. Pls advise
Yes, I’m in Australia, 2795 Yes, I did follow all the steps. I even deleted the app and started fresh so to not miss anything. I can log in and scan the QR codes but at the final step after scan, the app goes to the browser, then to app store and says app not available. I’m already signed in to Australian app store
I registered an account 😂. Trying to follow the instructions for an Essence. All good, right up until now”enter the code” yeah, Right Mate. Which code? Does this mean “create a code”. If so then surely that is the description which must be used here. I think I will try that tomorrow. Sigh.
Thank you for the video. So I understand all variants can use the Ismart app including standard edition. So what are the differences in ismart for different variants?
Hi, I need advice I bought an older mg4 and I can't connect to my phone, it says to me The service is not available - please try again later. Please advise thanks a lot
I bought mg marvel but can not connect the car with ismart I got login qr code but other qr code is not showing , what I have to do please guide me thanks
When I tap connect vehicle and scan the 2nd QR code, it comes up on the phone with 'this app not available in your country'. I'm in Australia, my iPhone is Australian and my App Store is set to Australia.
Hello Jerry, thank you for your assistance. I have just added the MG4 APP to my mobile. Does the MG4 have an 'assistant' I can ask to call a number in my contacts. I have a Samsung mobile.
Hi Jerry i have just bought a used MG4 Trophy in the UK and i can't use the app because its bound by the previous owner and i can't get any response from them to unbind the app. Have you any idea's what i can do to unbind the car. Thanks
Hi Jerry. Have you had any issues regarding binding the MG4? I followed your instructions in this video and when I go to scan the QR code, I get "QR code is not identified, please try again" on my phone. The Privacy Code on the car is set to YES and the clock on the car and my phone are in sync. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy A03 and has NZ as the region. I actually uninstalled the app and installed it again carefully following your instructions, checked the settings on both the car and the phone, but still no success with the same message as shown above. Any thoughts, or should I go back to the dealership and ask them to sort it out. Cheers, Ian.
Hi Jerry. Thanks so much for your reply. I found those two settings on the car and changed them. Scan was successful and I now have the app working on my phone. Much appreciated and your videos have been a huge help in getting to know the car better. After two months of ownership, I am very happy with my MG4. Looks good in the garage too parked alongside my MGC roadster.@@JerryPanandCars
@@JerryPanandCars app scans qr code. Car screen shows my name etc. Like its login. But nothing happens on iphone app. It keeps saying unbounded vehicle. I tried 100 times. Now I give up. 😭😭
This is a TERRIBLE process. How do you actually do it? The video almost explains it but there are issues. For a start, I cannot copy and paste the code on an iPhone (some apps let you do this but not this one). Try holding a phone, a pen and a writing pad in a car at the same time. Then you have to make up a password and remember that to re-enter that. I have tried to do it 3 times now but I fear I will never succeed. I have successfully done all sorts of tech set ups before but this seems a lot more fiddly than usual. I think I need two devices to do this. I have not yet got to register an account. The process of binding it to the car is a long way off. I am seriously irritated by the process. I will try registering the account separately first. Maybe that The QR code stuff will have to wait.
