Mercedes Companion Apple Watch App

Good morning,

Just bought an Apple Watch (second time...) and downloaded the MB Companion App that is supposed to run on the S and C Class.

Does anybody else have it? I can't figure out how to connect it to the car. No Bluetooth, no Wifi, no cable connection works...

Thank you!

All news about the app refers for it to work in fall of this year.

I tried it out as well and it appears to be a non-working app as of right now...

I also own the Apple Watch, but I'm confused. What will this MBrace App be able to do in conjunction with the Apple Watch?

The companion app has nothing to do with Mbrace. This is primarily a navigation app with some vehicle stats (fuel, tire pressure).

The concept is actually unique and quite cool depending on where you live because it deals with end2end navigation including walking to the car, in car navigation, parking the car and getting from the parked car to the actual place. So if you live in Europe, Manhattan or other dense metro areas, the actual drive time may make up only a smaller part of getting to the destination.

The app programs the car nav and the Apple watch gives you the turn by turn walking/driving directions.

I like it if it actually will work

It looked ready to me but nobody can pair it to their car. The info on there website says that it will be available in fall for the new S & C Class.

I expected it to be ready, otherwise why bother placing it onto the app store?
