Wink Lexus Enform Remote

Looks like Lexus published a new App in the market, called Lexus Enform Remote which will work in the 2015 GS and provide remote engine start from your phone along with many other cool features.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...rmremote&hl=en

The app has a demo mode if you download it.

Just tried it and my 2014 does not support it.

This also available for iOS.

Nice - I wonder if Remote Start will now be standard on the 2015 GS350s and what other Infotainment upgrades the 2015 will get? Thinking this might mean the GS gets the same system the 2015 IS gets which allows for natural language voice recognition for Navigation input and stuff like that.

As a recent 2014 purchaser, I'm jealous

Did you sign up and everything online?

Edit: I just tried, no luck. Looks like it's only 2015+

Yea u can sign up from the app.

I think this will be a paid subscription for the 2015 models. U get 1 year free probably n have to pay after that. I can live without it.

This is probably going to be RES+ only, and the 2013 and 2014 red headed stepchildren aren't even eligible. All we can get is RES. Sucks.

I'm unable to download the app. Is anyone able to post the APK for Android so I can sideload it?

This is the most "missed" feature on my GS.

Acura has had it standard on all Navi cars since 2005! BUT...........no regrets. Still loving the GS.
