Hello! I see that your Husqvarna Connect app crashes when you're trying to add a new work area. I’d like to help you get this sorted out. To start, can you tell me if this happens every time you try, or only occasionally? Also, have you recently updated the app or your device's operating system? Any extra details you can provide will help me guide you better.

Meanwhile, here are some initial steps that often resolve app crashes:

1. Close the app completely and reopen it.
2. Restart your Windows device. This can clear temporary glitches.
3. Check if the app is updated to the latest version available.
4. Clear the app's cache or temporary files if possible within your browser environment.

If you’ve done these already, do let me know, and we can try some further troubleshooting.

Are you comfortable with these steps so far?

still crashing latest update version

Thanks for the update! Since the app still crashes when adding a new work area after the latest update, let's try a few focused steps given this may be linked to recent app changes affecting stability.

1. Restart Both Devices
Restart your Windows device completely again. Also, if your mower or associated device is powered on, try restarting it. Sometimes a fresh start clears temporary conflicts.

2. Try Using a Different Device or Browser
Since you mentioned using WebKit on Windows 10, it may help to test adding the work area on another device (like a smartphone) or another browser if possible. This can tell us whether the issue is device/browser-specific. Some users have experienced crashes related to app integration with maps or device compatibility6 4.

3. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies
Since you’re on a browser environment, clearing browsing data can help. For WebKit browsers on Windows:
- Go to browser settings > Privacy or History section
- Clear cache and cookies (select recent time range or all)
- Restart the browser and try again

4. Check Network and Permissions
Verify your internet connection is stable. Also, check that the app or browser interface has permission to access location services, as mapping features may rely on this.

5. Report the Issue to Husqvarna Support
If these steps don’t resolve it, please consider sending the crash details and the device/browser info to Husqvarna support at [email protected]. They are aware of some app-related issues post-update and might have an imminent fix1 2.

Would you like me to walk you through clearing the cache or verifying permissions? Or do you have access to another device to try?

Are you satisfied with these suggestions so far?

What are the new features in the Husqvarna Connect app?

Great question! The Husqvarna Connect app continues to evolve to make managing your Husqvarna products easier and smarter. Here are some of the newer features introduced recently, focusing on 2023 updates:

1. Simplified Maintenance and Service Access
You can now instantly access manuals, service books, and find suitable spare parts directly within the app. This helps you keep your mower or other Husqvarna products in top shape without hunting for information1.

2. Improved Connectivity Modes
Depending on your Husqvarna model, the app supports two modes of connectivity: long-range cellular communication and local Bluetooth connection. Having these options allows better remote control and monitoring of your mower's status2.

3. Real-Time GPS Tracking
The app includes enhanced GPS tracking features so you can see the exact location and movement of your mower on a map in real-time. This is particularly useful for monitoring and making adjustments to work areas3.

4. More Nuanced Scheduling Options (User Requested)
Some recent updates and user-feedback-driven improvements have aimed to provide more detailed mowing schedules. For example, you could set limits on mowing frequency for specific areas, like not more than once a week, allowing better lawn care customization7.

The app also consistently improves stability, bug fixes, and user interface enhancements based on customer feedback.
