Sometimes I use it to start the rear seat heat for passengers since they don't give drivers control from the front. It's cool if you're a passenger and want to manage everything from your phone.

I think it’s only visible when the vehicle is running.

It becomes available when in Drive mode. Did you try in drive mode?

Good catch, even I didn't notice it earlier. I took this photo just after refuelling, it updated the range but didn't update fuel level.

That can be done from the vehicle itself.

You can't start the rear seat heating from any of the displays up front, only from the back seat. It's helpful when I'm trying to pre heat the seats for the passengers and I do it from my phone.

Sorry my mistake, more applicable to 4 zone climate control which I don't have.

Ahh didn't think about that. Yeah it let's you control all 4 zones individually via the app including seat functions. I guess if you don't have that or rear seat entertainment (which I don't have) it's not useful.
