NEW YORK: The app, specially designed for watch screens, lets user do everything from lock and unlock car, to start and stop the engine, all from wrist. Hyundai’s Blue Link is the company’s proprietary smartphone app that lets user control a variety of aspects of their car from anywhere in the world as long as you have a Wi-Fi or cell signal.
It’s available now for smartwatches running Google’s Android Wear software, with a version for the yet-to-be-released Apple Watch coming soon.
So, if you own a smartwatch and a compatible Hyundai, you can do things like check in on their car parked in New York City while user is standing in San Francisco.
The app also lets you start and stop your car’s engine, as long as your car comes with remote start; lock and unlock the doors; flash the lights and honk the horn to find it in a crowded parking lot; locate your car in a general area; and even call for roadside assistance.
Blue Link smartwatch app is that it is backward-compatible with all Blue Link-equipped Hyundai’s dating back to the company’s first-generation vehicles released in 2012. So user don’t need the absolute newest cars to get the app.
There’s just one thing missing from the Blue Link smartwatch app: a rocket ejector seat option
