Mine stopped recently too. I got it going again on 6 Feb by, turning ignition on, switching off then on bluetooth on iphone, connect with usb to car as normal, open app on iPhone. Afew seconds later all journeys I had made appeared in app. App may ask you for permission to access!

The 'My Citroen' App is a lemon in my opinion. It's totally unreliable and will very likely lose your data randomly which has been the thrust of many complaints.

It will work fine one moment and then just stop without warning. It can be a combination of when PSA update their servers and also when there are bugs for some smart phones, so they release a software update. This in turn fixes some phones and then breaks other phones that were working just fine when they are updated to the new version. So it's an ongoing catch 22 situation.

I have to say, although I don't wear a tin foil hat and am not part of the Flat Earth Society, do you really want PSA and its affiliates to know exactly where you are going and track your every movement?

I just use the 2 trip counters - one for total mileage / consumption and the other one for individual trips. I have the full car manual as a PDF on my iPhone and I don't really want PSA trying to tell me when I need to spend some money with them thank you very much. Rant Over :D

If you have the Citroen Emergency button installed they can do that already. Do you really think that they are that bothered about tracking every car they ever build? I think not. They would need a data-centre the size of the UK to store all the data from PSA-built cars around the world, and if they don't store it, what's the point?

Knowledge is power !
All the large companies nowadays want your info, your trends, your likes so that they can "tailor their services to suit your requirements". Well that's what they will tell you, in reality its about where they can make money.
