As promised earlier, if you’ve purchased an Ather Connect Lite/Pro, we’ll be adding subscription credits prorated daily from the day you purchased the plans till 10 January 2021. These credits can be used to renew your subscription subsequently.
We’re releasing an update to the Ather Android app (version 3.6.6) that solves for compatibility with Android 11 and fixes an issue where the app doesn’t load. We’ve just rolled this out in the Google Play Store, and you should see the update pop up in a few hours.
The next patch OTA update (10.0.3) will be rolled out over the next few days. The release fixes a lot of the bugs and niggles reported on the dashboard, along with some improvements as well. Overall, this is a stability release, looking to make the dashboard experience much better.
Some key fixes:
Fixes recent locations not showing up
Reduce volume of indicators and boot up sound
Fixes dashboard freezing, display turning on even when is key off and improves the performance
In addition, some changes since the beta release:
Fixes delay in sync between app and scooter
Improvements for auto cut-off indicators

If you’ve not set a password for your Ather Account before, you can head over to app.atherenergy.com/forgot, to generate a password. You’ll then be able to log in to the app with your email and password.
