Grand Design Compass Connect

Lippert Components

About this app

The Compass Connect® App brings the convenience, comfort and safety of Smart Home technology to your RV. You’ll operate essential devices like leveling, lights, slides, awnings and more:
• Use ‘Modes’ to make a custom device list for each part of your trip.
• Select ‘Favorites’ for quick access to frequently used devices.
• Monitor battery voltage, check water tank levels and adjust HVAC.
• Program a generator to turn ON automatically when needed and OFF to respect ‘quiet hours.’
To help with trip planning, use the complimentary Checklist Builder to plan and track every step. Then choose between classic light mode and new dark mode for enhanced readability.
If your RV is equipped with Auto Level PRO™ (Leveler 5), you can use the App’s new active bubble level display and choose from multiple setpoints. If your RV is equipped with Dimming or RGB lights, use the app to customize their appearance.
If your RV is equipped with a ConnectAnywhere™ system, a Telematics plan will allow you to monitor and control select Compass Connect devices and accessories remotely – from across the country.
Our Aftermarket Accessories portfolio makes customization easy too:
• Monitor tire health with the Tire Linc® tire pressure monitoring system.
• Make sure tanks are topped off with Liquid Propane sensors.
• Keep an eye on food safety with Temperature sensors for fridge and freezer.
• Add Smart Door Locks to keep things secure.
Check with your owner’s manual, RV manufacturer or dealer to see if your RV is compatible with Compass Connect, confirm device availability and check if your RV is prepped for Tire Linc or ConnectAnywhere, or equipped with Auto Level PRO/Leveler 5. Visit the Lippert™ online store to shop for Aftermarket Accessories and Telematics plans. To use Compass Connect to operate your RV, your smart device must be in Bluetooth® or WiFi distance of the RV.

Ratings and reviews

CC is useful for extending the awning or putting out the slide - particularly in tight spots - as you can monitor process from outside. I've not had the reliability issues noted in other reviews. I also use Tire Linc and appreciate that you can monitor pressures from within the app. However, CC is not compatible with Android Auto...would love to see that functionality added.

Update 5/15/2022. Changed from 5 stars to one star. Words cannot express my frustration since they updated the app. Now I can't connect, period. Everything was working fine, but not anymore. Camera scan, no go. Search, no go. Enter RV manually, no go. What a waste of time. Original review: New Reflection 5th wheel. Enjoying this app. Works well on my Android device. Would like to see the ability to set notifications for things like low battery voltage.

This app works, sometimes. Falsely indicates in- motion lock and there is no way to clear that from the app. Once you start it you will get constant pop-ups that the app "keeps stopping". Click on the pop-up to close the app and it is still there. Appears to be trying to start another instance. Exit the app and that pop-up will keep on coming.
