DroneMobile

App is garbage and continues to worsen. I’ve had to physically reset the device just to get the app to work on more than one occasion. I’ve had to contact support within the first month of use and have experienced ongoing intermittent issues since I began using a DroneMobile compatible device. Geolocation does not function adequately. Support will try to lecture you on the use cases of your app where DroneMobile may not function as intended but won’t be transparent about why the app does not function as intended. Conceptually brilliant, poorly executed.Update: Support informed me that my issues were due to cellular coverage in my area and sent an alternate SIM card to resolve the issue. It didn’t. This further reinforces my statement that it is some aspect of the DroneMobile app that is not functioning as intended. The vehicle is consistently out-of-sync and will remain in an erroneous state displaying that the vehicle engine is on and is still on a stretch of road from my daily commute when it is in fact parked, engine off, locked, and the system armed. It will often remain in an erroneous state for multiple hours and either randomly correct itself, or it requires that I pop the hood, disconnect the negative battery terminal to force a hard reset, and then hope I get one or two days of correct information from the DroneMobile app before I have to begin troubleshooting again. It also seems to de-sync where there is actually a high cellular signal. The app constantly de-syncing and having to troubleshoot and hard reset the device seemingly repeats indefinitely.

I had a hiccup here and there with the drone app. But 98-99% of the time it’s been reliable. It’s way more convenient to do things like silence alarm, valet mode, adjust the run timer for remote starts through the app instead of trying to memorize the sequence of buttons to press on a key fob. Not to mention my key fob stopped working for about a week once and the only way to communicate with my security system was my cell phone on drone app. It’s also nice to be able to monitor your battery and check to see if your doors are locked from your phone. I always get immediate alerts if my alarm sounds and some of the guys at work get a little jealous when I tell Siri to start my truck and 30 seconds later your get hear that hemi rumble on a cold start vibrating the work shop. The gps feature is nice. It went down on me for a few days a while back but other than that it’s always been reliable. I do wish the app had better instructions and user guides. I had it for a month before I figured out how to make system settings. And I have not figured out how to use the maintenance feature or how to make use of the 2 spare aux settings. I had this system installed while I was out of town and the guy at the shop spoke 98% Spanish and 2 % English so it was a lot of head nodding and smiling at each other after the installation and not much talking. But everything works great. It’s been a year and the nustart and drone have been working as expected.

Absolutely a must have in any situation! First it works as it’s described and does what it says!!! Control of your vehicle from anywhere at all! It will save you money on insurance if you have full coverage because when you have the full premium version it’s considered live tracking and theft recovery. So it essential pays for itself but even if not it’s so cheap per month for the service it’s absolutely a no brainer!!! You have your phone all the time now you have your remote all the time and you have multiple remotes because it’s email based app that can be installed on unlimited amount of phones for one price!! There’s so many pros for this and almost no cons!!! If your thinking about it let this be the read that puts you over to I need this in my life because quality of life will become so much more in any weather hot or cold!!! I use mine year round hands down the best on the market cause I’ve tried the others and so glad I found this!!! Drone mobile for the win!!!!
