What are the main features you use in the Lucid mobile App?
- Thread starter thecodingart
- Start date
Remote climate, check charging, and OTA status.
Is it possible to open the app without waking the car up?

No, but how else would you get the status of the car. Also, all these things are part of the app already...
Right now I can look at the app for my Jag and see that it has 230 miles of range, there's 20,943 miles on the clock, and that the car is unlocked all while the car is in sleep mode. To me it seems be to a waste of power to wake up the Lucid just to find out some rudimentary info.
That is true and I agree with!

How long is everyone’s app taking to wake the car? Mine is 30+ seconds or so from deep sleep, which is obviously annoying when leaving a store and you want to hit the climate in a cold day, etc.

Ha, thanks….. The larger point is they figured out how to make the screen wake instantly upon entry on V2, I imagine they can do so as well when accessing the app (my Tesla wakes instantly). If you’re going to quiet all the haters, have more drivers raving about the experience, and in turn sell more cars, these details matter IMO.

That’s interesting to hear. My tesla is a couple seconds now. I’m sure they will improve the Lucid, but knowing they “actively monitor” these board I think it betters the brand to discuss in these early days.
Yeah, my Tesla takes up to two minutes sometimes. Other times I just give up on it. I think it has a lot to do with your connectivity. My garage gets pretty terrible cell reception. And I can’t connect the car to the garage WiFi, because Tesla still refuses to allow connection to a captive portal.

Yes, I tested it in my garage on the same network.
when I open the app, and try to enter an address in the map section it just spins the whole time until I force close it...obviously a bug, but wanted to put it in here to see if anyone else if having that same issue and maybe bubble it up
I've noticed that several people have experienced this. Hopefully each person has reported it via Lucid's customer care communication form in addition to noting it here.
You can search places and address in google maps. Then tap share to your Lucid.
LOVE that ty sir!

There are instructions online on how to connect to a captive portal - applicable to Tesla and Lucid. Basically, you need a device that can change its MAC address to that of the car. Then you connect with that device, change its address back and then connect with the car. This assumes the portal will just let you connect again without bringing up a web page.
And therein lies the problem. The portal bounces all devices after a period of 4 hours. So unless I want to use a laptop to spoof my MAC address several times a day, this is a no-go.
The Lucid, by the way, doesn't seem to have any trouble bypassing the portal. Connects right up.
