Just got my '16 F Type R two days ago - I'm in the same state of annoyance/disappointment - no voice dialing! I think it's important to have from a Safety standpoint - you simply push one button, talk and the call is made. My Genesis and Expedition work great, the Kia Sorento is hit or miss - but has anyone succeeded with the Justdrive/incontrol/whatever app on your Android phone? What's involved?

Thanks for the prompt reply. Unfortunately (or fortunately IMHO) - I don't speak Apple. Is your "cheap" inference that I could get an older used iphone that did not tie to cellular service and that would work? I find it amazing with the all the technology AND buttons in this car, that they didn't dedicate one to act as what appears to be standard fare on all blue tooth enabled cars today - voice calling. What a shame.

I guess this ends my hope of using this app. I do have a fb acct but they are not getting their hands on it...

To use justDrive you must have a Google+ or Facebook account."
So everyone using this app has logged in via one of these these two?
Thanks.

I note that there is an app for my Android phone, not sure if it has all the functionality. Of course, I go to set up myself with Jaguar and when I register on the website their activation code never makes it to my email. I'll now have to call them later in the AM when open and we'll go from there. Everything seems broken these days.

Hey, so some folks up the thread said that voice activation works fine, now folks are saying it doesn't? That is really why I would use the justDrive app. Seems like the other functionality is covered by the InControl app? Anyway, to confuse matters even more, I got this response from the justDrive folks when I sent an inquiry:
"Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in our app.
To answer your question, you will indeed need either a Google or Facebook login to use the app.
However, do note that the InControl Touch PRO head unit is not voice control capable yet and will have to go through a service update process once it's available by JLR.
As soon as this software service update is available, we will work on adjusting our app to support it, but at this point of time I am afraid I can not provide you with a date."

The drift I get is that no matter what - you must start the function (be it voice dial, radio tuning, navigation, whatever) by pushing the screen first. After that, I guess there is some limited functionality.
Anyone who currently uses this - would you please to tell us an example of how you use this "feature", push by push and spoken command, etc.?
