The original VW Connect software has a new shell called Volkswagen app. It has similar functionality as VW Connect but the mapping feature is far superior. It's possible to zoom in on the map precisely to road names and will also link across to Maps online.

Just download and go through the setup - it picks up your VW Connect details.

Word of warning ⚠️ I was asked at some point where I lived I missed tapped Germany (dunno how it was top of list) so everything was in German not English - I was a dumpkoff alright. I had to delete my vehicle and re-enter all the details, that's a palaver. Well, up shot most of the app is now English on first or second page, it still shows mpg for last journey but try and access journal history and app switches to a pages of German with a couple of options - I tried one and everything reverted to German so I had to delete and re-instal the app.

I've searched Mr Google but can find no way to tell the app I don't live in Germany. My VW dealer shrugged his shoulders. Guess I can live with it.
