BYD Cars Philippines Launches Innovative App to Enhance Vehicle Ownership

BYD Cars Philippines is making waves in the automotive industry with the launch of its new mobile application, the BYD App. This app promises to revolutionize the ownership experience by transforming smartphones into an extension of car keys, providing unparalleled convenience for BYD electric vehicle (EV) owners.

Through ACMobility, Ayala Corporation’s comprehensive mobility solutions platform, BYD is enhancing the driving experience by leveraging cutting-edge technology. The BYD App, alongside new software updates, will integrate seamlessly with the vehicles’ DiLink connectivity system, offering existing customers an upgrade that blends hardware and software into a cohesive driving experience.

“BYD is globally renowned for its advanced technology that integrates both hardware and software into a seamless driving experience,” said Bob Palanca, Managing Director of BYD Cars Philippines. “The BYD App, along with the new software update, will deliver enhanced value to our customers in the ever-changing EV landscape and will further elevate their ownership experience.”

Enhancing Your Drive

The new BYD App integrates with the DiLink system, bringing a safer, smarter, and more comfortable driving experience to vehicle owners. It boasts a wide array of advanced technologies, including voice recognition, built-in navigation, geo-mapping, and services like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 4G connectivity. Setting itself apart from the industry standard, the BYD App offers a free 10-year subscription for connected services with the purchase of a BYD vehicle.

Key features of the app include real-time vehicle monitoring, which allows users to check their car’s status, location, and battery condition. It also provides remote control functionalities to operate door locks, horn, lights, and climate control settings. Additionally, the app monitors essential vehicle stats such as charging percentage, tire pressure, and driving history, ensuring owners are always informed about their vehicle’s health.

Keeping the Party Going with Stingray Karaoke

Along with the app, BYD Cars Philippines will soon introduce new software that enhances the entertainment experience inside their vehicles, including the Stingray Karaoke app. This in-car karaoke system features over 80,000 licensed songs in 25 languages and a growing music catalog. Users can browse music by genre, theme, artist, or even lyrics and have the option to harmonize with their favorite artists by toggling the lead vocals on and off. To set the perfect ambiance, the app also offers themed backgrounds that can be changed to match the mood.

Convenient In-Car Web Browsing

In addition to entertainment, BYD vehicles will soon feature a new web browser designed to offer a familiar and user-friendly experience similar to desktop browsing. This update includes easy tab navigation, multi-window functionality, and the ability to save websites for quick access. To ensure safety, the web browser can only be operated while the vehicle is parked, preventing distractions while driving.

BYD’s continuous innovation, exemplified by the launch of the BYD App and the integration of the Stingray Karaoke app, enhances vehicle ownership by improving connectivity and ensuring a dynamic and enjoyable journey for both drivers and passengers. These advancements reaffirm BYD’s commitment to enhancing convenience and usability for its customers.

“The introduction of the BYD App and other new features that integrate with BYD DiLink is an important achievement for us as we aim to provide a superior electric vehicle experience in the Philippine market,” added Palanca. “We are excited to see our fellow BYD drivers and those who will own one soon, utilize the app to its full potential as we all embrace the future of driving.”
