Owning a Volkswagen has always meant enjoying smart engineering, confident performance and a driving experience that feels tailored to you. For 2026, Volkswagen has taken that ownership experience even further with the myVW app. If you want to get more out of your VW in the year ahead, this app is the key to making every day easier, more connected and more personalized.
At King Volkswagen in Gaithersburg, we love showing drivers how much value this free tool adds, whether you just bought a new VW or you’re making the most of a trusted model you have loved for years. If your vehicle is model year 2020 or newer, the myVW app unlocks a world of support, smart features and on demand tools right from your phone.
Stay Confident with Active Vehicle Coverages
The best ownership experience is one where you always know what your vehicle is covered for. The myVW app makes that simple by keeping all your active coverages in one place. You can check warranty details, care maintenance intervals and Roadside Assistance information whenever you need it. Instead of digging through paperwork or wondering what is still active, the app lays it all out clearly so you never miss a benefit that already belongs to you. It is one more way to protect your investment and stay ahead of maintenance. If you have questions about your warranty or want help scheduling service, King Volkswagen is always ready to walk you through it.
Make Maintenance Easier Than Ever
The myVW app is designed to simplify the way you care for your vehicle. Once connected, you can receive maintenance reminders, see recall or safety campaign notifications and book appointments with King Volkswagen in just a few taps. After your visit, your service history and receipts automatically save to the app so you can track everything without keeping physical records.
Roadside Assistance is also available through the app, bringing support to your phone in stressful moments. Whether you need a tow, a jump or help with a flat tire, you can request assistance quickly and get back on the road with confidence.
Learn Your VW Inside and Out
With model specific video guides, helpful playlists and a built-in Virtual Assistant, the myVW app helps you understand every feature your vehicle offers. If you are ever unsure about a dashboard light, you can even scan it using the indicator light tool and get instant clarity on what it means and whether action is required. It is an easy way to understand your VW on your terms, especially when you want answers right away without flipping through an owner’s manual.
Unlock Even More with Connected Services
Activating myVW Plus inside the app opens the door to connected services packages that expand what you can do with your vehicle. Plans like Remote Access let you start your engine from afar, lock or unlock your doors, and flash your lights using your phone or smartwatch. That is especially helpful in the Maryland heat when you want a cool cabin by the time you reach your car.
You can also set custom alerts such as speed, boundary or curfew settings, which give you added peace of mind when someone else borrows your VW. With Vehicle Insights, electric vehicle drivers can manage charge levels and monitor energy consumption while all owners can review health reports and get a heads up when service might be needed.
Personalize Your Experience
The myVW app gives your vehicle a digital profile that is completely your own. You can name your VW, manage users, adjust communication settings and explore the Shop tab for add ons like Wi Fi Hotspot subscriptions or Premium Speech services. You can even browse VW DriverGear and show pride in your ride with official accessories and apparel.
