ON STAR APP FOR THE ZL1
Anybody download the On Star ZL1 App? Took me an hour to read all the fine print and acknowledgements/agreements. Now I have a headache. Who writes this crap, you need a damn lawyer to understand it all.
Anyway, I haven't hit "Agree" yet, thought I'd ask if anyone else is using it first and what they think of it. It's available on the iPhone and the iPad. Gives you feedback on MPGs, how much fuel is in the tank etc... If you downloaded this App, please post your opinion. |

I liked it when I had it.. Don't have it anymore bc I didn't renew my onstar but liked that I was able to start my car and lock the doors (just in case I forgot) with my phone.

I thought it was more useful for an Automatic car for the remote start feature. On my last car, I could start my car when leaving work, and it was warm once I got to it (or cool in summer). Loved that feature! I have a long walk to my car from work and it's not within sight.

The app is free and definitely worth it. One of the other things you can do with it is send turn by turn directions to your car. If you do this while not operating your car it will receive them the next time you do use your car.

Also like that on star gives you a report every month to your e mail how your car is doing. Also like that when my car is covered for winter on star rolls over the time you paid for the service, the car phone to I like that. |

No point in me having it as it can't read anything from my car due to the aeroforce gauges I have installed!

Yes you need to call on star the second you cover car for winter, and xm radio I call to get time for winter, Have you ever called to let them know, on star knows you don't use car, please call them when you store the car, they will add / roll over time to when you start driving again. They did it for me.
