No connectable that display any information I can pin them to my map but they are blank so I don’t know if they just aren’t available for my truck or what it’s a shame because I was really hoping it would support my truck because I liked the idea of this app

Really neat concept and great execution

The concept of CarPlay widgets that this app displays and uses is amazing. It’s a shame that widgets aren’t built into CarPlay by default because they really are incredibly useful and makes CarPlay a lot more unique to each person and less bland. I’m writing this review at a time when this app is essentially brand new and I can say that in its current state it’s blown me away.

I hate subscriptions

Wish I could just pay for something. This isn’t worth monthly transactions.

Awesome app

Just started playing around with this app after seeing it on instagram. Ordered a scanner to further play with it and get real time information for my Silverado. Interested to see what the developer has in store in terms of future features and integration!

Runs better than perfectly

This is exactly what I was looking for, and better! I was tired of installing multiple apps to track things that I wish apple maps did standard. So many times have I installed an app just to forget to open it while driving, or manually connect OBD2 scanner to get battery percentage. This does all that perfectly. Took a few drives without even thinking about opening it and everything was tracked flawlessly! Now with the future plans of navigation in app, this just got so much better than I ever wanted! Shout out the developer Jeff who is insanely active across multiple platforms and goes above and beyond to make sure it works for everyone!

Only one issue, don’t know if it’s on my end or not

This app is great. Have figured out a way to use Sidecar to automatically log my odometer, and fuel levels and integrated into an iOS shortcut. The problem I’m having is automatically connecting to my scanner 9/10 times results in the scanner erroring out saying it can’t find a vin, so I have to manually delete the scanner and connect again for it to pull data. If there are any hints or tips I’d love to hear them

Absolutely Amazing
