I just saw the update and I'm scared to upgrade. Each app update gets worse. All of the latest reviews are terrible. I want to be optimistic but I don't trust Honda. If you've updated, can you please provide your experience? Thank You.
 
Seems a little bit quicker to respond after updating. Also doesn't have the silly delay with the "connecting..." screen anymore, at least at the moment.

Previous to this latest update my hondalink app was virtually useless. I just updated, because it couldn't get any worse, and the app updated to actual time after "locate car". I'll take what ever improvements they have to offer.

Are you all on IOS? I'm Android and the app says version 4.0.7.1 NOV 2019

I'm on Android. The version you listed is the not the latest update that was released on 10/31/19. I too have the version you listed because I have not done the update. If you are seeing 4.0.7.1 as Nov 2019, perhaps you need to update the play store or you're not on Android 10.

Since the app works for some and not for others on Android (I have no clue on Apple), I wonder if the issues are specific to each phone manufacturer? I guess it could help if folks can list their manufacturer/phone type. Honda needs all the help they can get.

I have a Google Pixel 2XL on Android 10
 
Edit: I went back to the Play Store and there was an update. It now says Version 4.1.0

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Android 6.0.1

LOL! we are looking to replace after the holidays.

When I go to the app store is says already installed with no update option.

I'm on 4.1.0

Seems to be better than before; the only issue was having to login again.

Remote climate working as it should.

ODO is still behind about 100 miles at this time.

Mine updated to 4.1.0. Everything working (slowly), but it worked before on the last version. Google Pixel XL running Android 10.
 
mine got stuck on 14 oct 2019 for the find my car location, and always shows charge is full , mine is 4.10 update, i complained to support on 31 oct, still waiting for their answer. mine is S10+ phone. surprisingly odometer reading is working correct.
 
I update , no issues on Android.

My Honda Link year trial is due to expire in a few days, curious to see if I'll lose remote climate or vehicle locator.. Really those are the only features I use in the app.

I know it says you have a 12 month complementary trial period but I don't think they charge you for it after the 12 months. I haven't paid for the service after the 12 month trial. Maybe that's why it doesn't work like it should/s

When you google "hondalink cost" it takes you to a honda site that says the hondalink has a 12 month free trial period. I can say I have never heard of any one who has paid for this joke of an app. By comparison my Ford Pass app, which is free, is miles and miles better.

The site is a Honda dealer - Patty Peck Honda. The subscription is a Security Subscription for the Accord Touring. They also have a Remote Subscription for the Accord Touring that is free for 3 months then $110/year and a Concierge Subscription free for 3 and then $260/year.

The normal, basic HondaLink app is free.

FWIW - I have the 4.10 update and mine is working fine.
 
Still crap - 3 versions ago my Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S smartphone upper end world phone
was correctly in kilometers - since then - including this update it is stuck in 'miles'.

After 5 or more calls and a few hours with Honda 'support' - including supposedly a developer - it is still in miles and it is my fault :-(

piece of crap (an older Huawei tablet is happily in kilometers)

This might not help and it may have already been tried, but... Are the two devices set with the same Language setting? Some apps use English US to set to miles and a different English setting for kilometers.
