Mercedes Me app is really wonky

The Mercedes Me app is almost totally useless. For many days there was no hint of Send 2 Benz even visible in the app. I use this feature quite a bit in my E300 and in my former C350. Now it's back, but Locate Vehicle, Lock/Unlock and Remote Start are now nowhere to be found. Even when Remote Start was available, it was spotty. I could remotely start the car (if the doors were locked) but as soon as I unlock the car the engine shuts off. Maybe I'm misusing the feature, but the whole interface seems to be inconsistent.

I haven't gotten that far - cannot link my mbrace account to the app - I keep getting an error.

My understanding is that the car must be locked in order to start the car...however as soon as the door is opened the car does shut off...at least that's how it was demo'd to me during my delivery presentation.

MBme is really wonky for the last couple pf days! I thought Mbrace would eventually quit working when MB stops supporting the app.
