Yeah, good people had good ideas and created the computer link that allows your catalytic converter to function properly. As with all good things, some shithead ruined it and put Subaru’s remote start behind a paid app. Shit people ruining good things, tale as old as time.
Note it is very nice for me to be able to start the air conditioning in my electric car when it’s 38C out before I leave my desk.
Other things are mildly convenient, like checking progress of charging, locking/unlocking doors remotely. It happens to be convenient to check problems, but that’s only because the in-car system isn’t very good, and I would happily take the in-car system being better.
Cars didn’t need apps in the 1900’s and they sure as hell don’t need them now.

You don’t need a computer to make a car. But you might need most of one to meet fuel economy and safety standards.
