Ratings and reviews

Two complaints: The widget need to update more often. Info was showing 48 hours old and I've been using my phone all day. This is not a one-off. It defeats the purpose of a widget if I have to go into the app to get accurate info. (From 2022 and still not fixed) in 2024, I've notice that there is a memory issue; it is using 15GB (yes, GB) of storage! Only temp fix is reset the whole app. (Too much time for me, with 4 cars to re-key).

Great app and glad they provide this functionally without cost. Biggest gripe right now is the Android app isn't updated at the same time as the iOS app. Second main issue is when viewing live cameras it cuts off the music I'm listening to. It should not need to pause the music since there is no sound coming from the videos. Another issue, it's impossible to check in for service from the Android app. The button is below the screen.

Doesn't tell you anything about using it. I absolutely hate the black background. Tiny gray info on black background is no fun at all. It would be nice to toggle the black background to a white background. It would be nice if there was a summary report function. One thing the old e gauge had that this doesn't is that you could expand the size of the graphs so you could see them more clearly.
