remote climate control not available

this is a new one. I posted the rear l/r tail lights fuse location a few posts up and received some great advice. I just went to start the car with the remote app. it contacted the vehicle but the remote climate page has the start button grayed out, if i press it a pop up occurs that says you have reached the time limit for remote climate. it will become available when the vehicle is next used. WTF?
I really hate this app. It takes me 3 seconds to start my American cars and as long as 45 minutes with the remote app if the network is busy. plus i don't have to enter a code. the fastest the app will start is 20 seconds with a dozen key strokes. I also cannot find anywhere who wrote it to contact them to tell them how to code a good app. they skipped the user interface session where you meet with real users.
anyway to overcome this lock out?
Jag should offer both a starter on the keys and a remote. another issue is i can't use it with my dog in the car. i always leave the windows partially down and turn on the remote start with my other cars. The jag makes me close all windows or it won't start. another user unfriendly piece of code. i could go on and on as it is the only thing i really hate that irritates me.

If you have an iPhone you can set it up to use facial recognition instead of entering a code. I wonder if there was some type of joint effort between Ford Motors and JLR in creating this system? Back is 2014 the Ford app and JLR app where almost identical, over the years they have diverged but there are still a lot of similarities including the need to set a wake up command to prevent the car from going into a deep sleep.

I agree. When I first show my Jag to friends they of course want to hear that engine come to life. They are flabbergasted when I have to manually open the door, get in the car, foot on brake, and push start. And since I don't have any feasible explanation for it, they think Jag has lost it's mind - or is still stuck in the 80s. Not a huge deal to me personally, but If nothing else, I think it's poor brand imaging. Why would you NOT have remote start (via fob) on a car this expensive and feature laden??

I think that is an European regulation . I have never seen an auto start key Fob available on European Automobile brand as far as I know. I was able to purchase a third party add on module for my Audi that added this feature but I needed to leave a key with the module for it to operate . Works like the SmartTOP module that allows you to open and close the convertible top on our Jag using a series of key strokes from the key fob.

Whilst I have experienced occasional non functioning of remote start, I find remote start generally works quite well, although there are two apps on Android, either can be used.
It could be impacted by network performance, I live in UK.
I find those who are impressed by remote start are more impressed that it can be commanded to start from a much larger distance than the key fob range.

I'm not referring to the 4 day wake up issue. I am citing what occurred after I used remote start 3 times in 1 day! You can manually start my car but the remote start won't work as it gives that pop up you have reached the time limit for remote climate. it will become available when the vehicle is next used..
and today it says sorry, an error has occurred please try later.. even though I have full strength ATT cellular and wireless. go figure....
