It has arrived on my app. Must have happened when I turned the phone on this morning.
If I could donate to those desperate for it I would...I see no value in it given the restrictions, especially the fact that it will not send notifications if the vehicle is in Deep Sleep Mode!!

That seemed to force it for me yesterday. Within two hours of the upload the guard mode was active…
I assume you are also running 21020?
Yep 21020 (without maps update)

May give interrogator a go tomorrow thanks

Just want to have a play with it really

I don’t suffer deep sleep issues (even with dashcam in constant park mode and averaging 4 miles most weeks) so at least that’s one issue with guard mode I don’t have to worry about for now. And my phone is always on and nearby

Does it give an alert every time a door is opened even if authorised, mine seems to. So you end up with several alerts per day but none of them unauthorised.

I get phone notifications but there’s no alert sound when they pop up which is useless

Just occurred to me that the camera app wasn’t making a noise either so it may be because the phone was connected to the car over BT. Will test again with BT disabled or get someone else to open the door.

Switched mine off. It kept saying unauthorised access even though I used the key. Would I like to inform the emergency services?

I might just set it when I park up.
