Honda REALLY wants me to use Smart Charge; I’ve received this identical email 8 TIMES in the 12 days since I signed up in the HondaLink app… Sent from my iPad using Inside EVs
Blocking the email seems like a bad idea, as they may actually use it to tell me something important at some point. Likewise, dumping the app & losing the functionality seems like overkill to eliminate what, at this point, is just a humorous nuisance…
FWIW: We’ve had our Clarity for more than 3 1/2 years and have never installed or used the app. If I’ve missed something important, it probably wasn’t that important. A recall notice is about the only correspondence I want from Honda, and that would come in the mail or I’d learn about from the dealer during the annual oil change. Nearly every Hondalink discussion on the forum is about some sort of annoying behavior. It won’t connect, won’t update the odometer, won’t charge when it’s supposed to, stops charging when is isn’t supposed to, won’t start climate control, won’t unlock the doors, sends constant emails, etc. I haven’t been annoyed by any of those things and the car works just fine.
I only use it for checking status while charging and to schedule maintenance from my armchair. Things I can actually live without, although it doesn't send me any emails...
See if your email lets you set a filter. With gmail you can set a filter to automatically trash messages that contain specific words - like "Honda SmartCharge".
