While I'm generally against subscriptions, for the most part the above are things that require cellular service and cloud infrastructure...
While the price may be too high. I'm normally ok with subscriptions for things that have on-going costs to the seller.
Yeah I would need to see the "read more" here, all of these look fine but I'd never be surprised to see shit like cruise control or heated seats pop up on a paywall.
My car has remote lock and unlock on a FOB, no reason for an app and subscription.
I also get the feeling that the diagnostics are done on board by the car, it's just refusing to give you the information unless you're paying the sub.
Put a knockoff air tag in your car and half of this is solved for $10.
Literally one item on that list could be solved with a airtag. And airtags start at 30, even the knockoffs are 20 and don't really work well.
We should be able to self host the servers and choose the cellular service like i can on my phone then
