Jeep Connect APP

Could a few of you post a screenshot of your Jeep connect app screen? I thought it would do more then just lock/unlock and start the Jeep.
I thought it would show like full levels and other items. I may be wrong, just wondered if it was for anything else.

Thanks

Mine also just has locks, start, horn, etc…. Which is a step backwards. The older UConnect app that I used with my ‘19 GC showed gas, tire pressure, and oil life remaining. I have no idea why those features wouldn’t be incorporated in the new one.

I know, what makes this "connect" app so different? Was hoping to see tire pressure or gas left or anything. :)

I have the same few functions on the Jeep Connect app. It is strange, on the mopar.com dashboard it shows my connected services have expired. Then on the Jeep Connect website it states I don't have services.

Maybe check with your dealer to insure the services were activated when you took delivery. Mine mentioned more than once during delivery that he wanted to ensure everything was properly registered. We used the remote start, unlocked the doors, sounded the horn, and checked it’s location before I left.

The remote start, lock/unlocked the doors, horn, and vehicle location are working on my Jeep App. My understanding is these functions don't require a subscription for the GCL. I was under the impression there are additional connected services that are part of a six month free trial that aren't showing up in the Jeep App. My guess was it was somehow related to the odd messages on the mopar.com dashboard and the Jeep Connect webpages. There seems to be very little information about the GCL connected services.

Yea, I saw something about tomtom under connected services but I only have the 8.4 radio so it sure it even applies to me. I don’t even know where to get a correct answer, nothing online really tells you what you “should” be getting with this trial. The marketplace no longer works on mine also.

That looks like mine also.. looks just like the older Uconnect app. Not sure why people made a big deal about it unless there should be more to it that is moot showing up?

Jeep Customer Care told me:
The odometer thing is a known instance that is being worked on consistently as is the features in the app that are currently missing such as odometer in the app, tire pressure, fuel level, etc. You will get a correspondence at a future date as to when those features will be added to the app.

Thanks, this is good info to know. This should be in a sticky thread as it would have saved me a lot of waisted time researching this issue. IDK why jeep doesn't do a better job of keeping owners informed.

Does anyone know if we have to pay for the hotspot service (would not think it was for anything but hotspot but who knows) to get the Market place up on it? Mine says no network connectivity when I goto it.

We just bought our GCL about a week ago. Most of the time the remote start feature and location on th app don’t work and I can’t figure out why. Cell service is great where we are.

Just tried to setup hotspot again. I set the name, then I set password and when I go back to screen its gone.

Mine still looks the same. That is weird that for one person it would show all that information but for others it does not.

I have my wifi connect to home but to actually connect to that I need to use it on the screen, it is not auto connection.
