Error: "No internet connection"
"Please check your internet connection. This is necessary to record trips and transmit driving data."

This means that your mobile phone has no or insufficient Internet connection. Functions of the app and recording may not be available. Please make sure that you have enough data in your tariff, and that the connection is stable. You should also be in an open space. In parking garages or tunnels, the connection can often be interrupted.

If the problem persists after changing location, try closing and restarting the app.
Error: "Vehicle status not synchronized"
"An internal error has occurred. Please restart the vehicle and contact support if the problem persists."

"No new trip could be started. Please try again later."


The Yaak hardware has lost its communication with the car. Please turn off the car and wait 1-2 minutes so that the hardware can be completely shut down. Then start the vehicle again, and wait a few minutes for the hardware to start up. Then, open the app.
Error: "Vehicle not available"
"Your vehicle seems to be offline. Make sure you are connected to the Internet and try again."
