Be Like James Bond and Control Your Genesis From a Watch
A Genesis smartwatch app is now available for the Apple Watch and Android Wear.
The new app allows Genesis owners to control their vehicles straight from a smartwatch and is called the Genesis Intelligent Assistant App. Functions on the app include remote start with climate control, remote engine stop, remote door lock/unlock, remote horn and/or lights, car finder, vehicle status and parking meter. Like most smartwatch apps, all the commands can be controlled with your voice.

The Genesis Intelligent Assistant App can also be used on the smartphone, combining Genesis Connected Services and car care tools. Owners can schedule valet service, send reminders and educate owners about their vehicle. In addition, the app is designed to save owners time during the pre-drive and pre-service periods.
“Streamlined processes and tools that respect our owners’ time is part of the essence of Genesis,” said Erwin Raphael, general manager of Genesis in the U.S. “Integrating Genesis cars with the latest devices stems from our commitment to providing a superior ownership experience, which includes constantly studying cutting-edge technology.”
