SyncUP DRIVE Legacy for Positive User Reviews
✓ Got my car backFirst I want to say, I was going to cancel this service because I felt it was just a waste of my money, but I am so glad I did not because a month later my son was out in my car and someone came up on him and he was robb at gunpoint and the robber took my car but because I didn't cancel the police was able to locate my car within a few minutes all while I was on the phone with the dispatcher, and this is so truth, they didn't catch the robber but my son is okay and I got my car back, so if anyone thinking about purchasing it, do it..Version: 3.6.6.9902
✓ Only Basic FunctionalityThe main reason I bought this device was to track business trip mileage. While you CAN tag trips for business you CANNOT filter by business trips, nor can you export your data. Additionally if you are down in the timeline looking at a trip that I’d say a month old, once you back out of that particular trip it bounces back up in the timeline. Today it’s going back to Jan 8, when I was down in December. I got this device because Automatic shutdown due to the pandemic. Look to what Automatic was doing T-Mobile that’s what your device and app should strive to be. RIP Automatic..Version: 3.8.16.13951
✓ Needs a huge update.Every time I try to update the information of the vehicle it won’t save. For example, when I change the nickname I have set for the vehicle to another name, close it then open it back up it would be the name I had it before. When I enter the license plate number, close it then come back it would be gone. The app design/features seem really outdated. I also have an ABS light on and nothing is showing that on the app. The app says that my care is okay...???? Every time I open and close my door while off shows that there is a disturbance... fix this.Version: 2.16.12
✓ Useful app for monitoring your car (love the wifi hotspot too)I have been using this app for the last 3 months and I am quite happy with it. It records all of my trips history and statistics. I am using it for self improving my driving behavior too. It also gives me wifi hotspot inside my car. I am just not quite comfortable with the turn-on sound it creates when you ignite the car. Maybe a softer sound is better?.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Best car app on the marketThis app is great, gives you insights about everything you could ever want to know about your car. Every time there is a disturbance to your car, you are sent a notification. You never have to worry about your car getting towed or broken into without your knowledge. The gas station part is great too, shows you the cheapest gas stations near you..Version: 3.6.2.9500
✓ I love it!!I have a 1998 car with an electric problem so I can’t register the millages. But the app was registering all my path, all my stops and everything else! However, lately, it just shows a straight line from point A to point B. Also, the other day said my car started a trip and I was inside of Walmart. I freaked out and ran to my car to find out that it was parked. There is a huge delay on receiving the info from the car to the phone. I really hope the next update improves the efficiency of the device! Because I love my SyncUP!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Great for familiesSyncUp Drive is great for staying on top of where everyone is. My spouse and I use it to coordinate picking up the kids, running errands, and meeting at events. The car status has been great at letting me know about recalls, service updates, and general issues. In car wifi is a killer feature when driving on long road trips. I highly recommend SyncUp Drive for anyone with kids or those in need of internet access in their cars..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Single Parent BluesAs a single parent, I know little about car maintenance so having this service is the greatest thing! It let's me know if my Jeep needs service, where the cheapest gas station is to where I live, where I parked my Jeep last as we only have street parking. The topper...it lets me know if there's been a disturbance on my Jeep. It even alerted me on New Years Eve when firecrackers fell on my car! 👍🏾👍🏾 Thank you from a grateful single parent!.Version: 3.8.11.114
✓ Pays for itself many times overThe notification of telling where to get the cheapest gas pays for itself a couple times over. Even more savings to help me tag my business trips and expense them. Am sure many sales people lose hundreds of dollars annually - like me - because forgetting to expense mileage. T-Mobile’s SyncUp Drive is a great tool for this. Also hotspot included when I have the kids. Then also get notified on speed, leaving zones. Just recently device told me my check engine light reading was a specific issue with my thermostat- I have that info to my mechanic saving me a service fee for troubleshooting. Time to get another one..Version: 3.8.11.114
✓ GPS, WU-fi and more functionsWorks very well, I made boundaries for home and other and I registered with VIN # and other information that give me codes in case the pick up have any electronic issue. This give me an exact place where I park my pick up. The GPS works 24/7 and never stop working including when I turn off the engine, this still give me the GPS and battery charge when is turn off and running too. Have other functions too like wi-if inside my pick up truck and I can turn on and off the wi-if when I want. I am very happy of buy this equipment with T-mobile last week..Version: 3.8.15.12586
✓ No longer tracks. Updated: fixed!See update below. This used to work until a couple of months ago. Now it doesn’t track location of vehicle when driving. Shows trip started/ended. Never moves from my house on map. Update: After I left review above they reached out to me. I hadn’t given them additional info yet but within about 3 days I received messages that it was now compatible with Cadillac SRX. Works great again! Raising to 4 stars. Thanks!.Version: 2.15.0
✓ I love this app!This may not work for all vehicles, but it works just fine for mine. I am able to give my wife a heads up when she is out and about and low on fuel. The alerts are accurate and pretty timely, usually less than a minute from occurring. Tracking has been pretty spot on too. If I had a complaint, it would be that the app does not always remember my log in (seems to occur after an OS update) so I am unsure which side is in error. Other than that, I recommend it very strongly..Version: 2.6.0
✓ This App Gets Things RunningI love this app! It includes free Roadside Assistance for crying out loud. I like that I can track everything about my car, generate an LTE hotspot, and get real-world MPG. I’ve used trip stats to get data about which gas stations my car likes best. Surprisingly, regular Unleaded yields worse results but by worse I mean the exact MPG my SUV is rated for while the premium fuel at Exxon is betting better MPG. I find my results surprising bc Consumer Reports, KBB, CNET, & any well respected auto magazine has argued that unless your vehicle requires premium fuel there won’t really be a difference. I’d challenge that 8-20 better mpg is noteworthy though especially when my manual states Regular Unleaded is fine and makes no recommendations for Premium fuel. Anyway I’m probably basing my 5 star review of this app a whole lot on the MPG analytics, but I do also appreciate that service warnings come up in the app, and recall notices for components if they've surfaced. The app compliments the SyncUp Drive a whole lot. It's a smart way of connecting the car people already drive. No kidding, I wish more solutions were as brilliant and useful as this one..Version: 3.6.3.9630
✓ No true iPad version availableI love the app, I would have liked for the iPad app to be an actual iPad app and not an iPhone app that kind of works on an iPad. The resolution is made for an iPhone, and it does not support horizontal screens, I have a keyboard attached to my iPad and I use it a lot when out of the house for most all the work I do, and it’s kind of annoying that I have to pick up the iPad and detach it from the keyboard in order to use this app. Please correct this issue..Version: 3.6.2.9500
✓ MappingThis app is very useful. I do have an issue with the mapping part. When vehicles are idling the map shows a scribble, which cant help me pin point where my vehicle is also from time to time the map shows a straight line from point A and B. Also i have a problem with real time tracking. Sometime i want to know where is one of my drivers, it informs me that the vehicle is on but doesn't give me an updated place..Version: 2.15.1
✓ Good app. Needs some improvementPhotos of documents and receipts always look horrible. A great option and alternative would be the ability to upload PDF files of receipts and insurance documentation. Another great upgrade to the app would be the ability to have one device registered to more than one phone. My wife and I share a car, but only one of us has access to the Sync-Up Drive device plugged into the car. It’s a hassle..Version: 3.8.6.10585
✓ The new updateThe new update is offering less then the previous Application offered. RPM and all those things that have been removed where the reason why I got this device in the first place. I have Waze to tell me where gas is and I only fill up in select places so I get you are trying to cater to the select drivers who pay little mind to cars and do everything as cheaply as possible but as a car guy I enjoy seeing the additional stats so I know who to yell at for driving my car to aggressively amongst other reasons. The update did make everything visually look more appealing however it feels like half of the features have disappeared all together..Version: 3.6.0.9373
✓ Overall great but lately...This app has been a saving grace for me, as I travel a lot for work, and it makes tracking trips and mileage a breeze. Lately though, the location doesn’t change and my trip history has the same starting location and end location for every trip. The dashboard map view also shows my car in that location not moving, when the car is parked elsewhere and even when the car is moving. Please fix!?.Version: 2.15.1
✓ Works perfectly and does more than I thought it did!Pretty excited to have this on my 2009 vehicle. It already helped me diagnose a small problem my mechanic couldn't replicate because it was something that occasionally happened while driving. The app gives you a lot of data on the car & I look forward to updates and to see what else it can do in the future..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Luv ItI initially got this device to have Wi-Fi in my older model SUV. It has become an essential asset to have. It has given me prompt notifications when there have been system / engine issues with my truck. It keeps me up to date on recalls and even notifies me when the fuel level is low. I luv it. I can track my kids when they are driving it and it even tells me when they speed. Great tool to have!!!.Version: 3.11.0 (14863)
✓ Love this thingI haven’t had any dramatic event since I got this thing except one time a person cleaning the parking lot bumped the car while I was in the store. I checked it out and was pleasantly surprised to see that not only was my car not stolen, but the parking lot was getting cleaned up. But the best thing that this app has done is run diagnostics and alert me of check engine lights and codes. Sure we could buy a tester and stick it on the car whenever the check engine light comes on or take it in to the dealership and pay them to do it but how great it is to not have to do that. We know whether it’s a minor issue that can be taken care of at our leisure or something more urgent. Also love the list of recalls! Who does that!? Not something that you’d think of as a convenience until you have it! Working from a laptop is amazing when a passenger with the mobile hotspot! What else can I say about having WiFi in your car? We frequently visit family living 1 hour and 2 hours away and the ability to continue working while my husband drives is amazing! I’m excited for the updates and to see what more this app can do! Thank you for continuing to develop!.Version: 3.6.1.9426
✓ What Happened To Car Icon?I'be been using this for about 3 uears now. I really like it. When a trip starts and you pull up the map it use to have a little care icon that would track on the map. After the last update it disappeared. Nothing but a thick pink line that tracks the route now in near real time. Not a big deal, just wonder what happened to car icon? Maybe they eliminated it because it was taking too mich to process? It use to even turn in the direction ot was teaveling when the car was making a turn too. The Hotspot is a great feature I use a lot to stream audio. Speeds are pretty bad most of the time though. 1.5mbps or less. Usually less and thats with 4 or more bars. Not too annoying as it still does the job because the streaming player app lime TuneIn or Sirius All Access will buffer up to compensate for the low bit rate. Still, hotspot should be performing much better than that but I have lived with it..Version: 3.8.4.10312
✓ The Things Just Works!!!!!This app is fantastic!!! I have the Hum device by Verizon on one of my other vehicles and was strongly considering getting more for all of my fleet. I tried out the SyncUP device because it was on promotion and it basically cost me nothing. I am so very glad the T-Mobile associate convinced me to try it. Compared to the Hum device, T-Mobile’s SyncUP is better in two major ways. One. T-Mobile’s SyncUP makes and keeps a detailed log of every trip your vehicle takes from point to point. It doesn’t just give a general location either. It actually gives you your starting point address as well as your ending point address. It then asks and gives you the option to have it save your completed trip as business or leisure. My Hum doesn’t give me this option. Secondly, the SyncUP is much more intuitive time use and navigate through. Also, though both the SyncUP and Hum emit a WiFi signal. After owning my Hum for almost two years, I have noticed that the consistency of the signal to my devices is much better in the SyncUP than the Hum. And I do mean considerably better!!! Kudos to T-Mobile for making an awesome device that just plain works and does what it says!!!!.Version: 3.8.8.10866
✓ SyncUP is awesomeWe have enjoyed SyncUP from when we signed up for it. It has saved us money on repairs. Helped me locate the vehicle numerous times when I have to find the car when my wife parked it and I need to pick it up. SyncUP played a key roll...no without SyncUP we would never have found our vehicle when it was stolen! When I showed the police officer I could track my stolen vehicle he was amazed. Once I contacted the right detective he was able to have our vehicle recovered in about 3 hours. Did I mention the vehicle was in Mexico? If I could make one suggestion on an improvement would be an alarm feature. Where it is not just a little beep when you have a disturbance but, a louder alarm..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Pretty awesome, a few things to changeFirst of all, we love our SyncUP Drives. Hotspot on-the-go, roadside assist and a cool dashboard. I cancelled my OnStar and use this exclusively as a much better solution, with way more features than I could get from OnStar in my 2010 Saab and 2008 Audi. I’ve been waiting for a device like this for ages — so glad someone put diagnostics and WiFi sharing into one simple device. There’s just a few things I’d like to see: - Crash notification. As others have mentioned disturbance notification isn’t that great, because getting into your car counts as a disturbance. What would be great is if there was a notification of crashes. OnStar knows when air bags are deployed and can send help, SyncUP Drive should at least be able to notify family members (or fleet members) if something bad happens. - Customization: I get that they’re working with TMobile so they have to use the ugly purple everywhere, but it would be nice if I could assign an app color theme that goes with my car, so it looks like it belongs. - Fuel level indication doesn’t work in my Audi. Bummer. Otherwise, off to an awesome start. This thing rocks, and I hope it just keeps getting better!.Version: 2.15.0
✓ Love the T-Mobil SyncUPUsed the road side service feature for the first time ever, since having the device for 2 1/2 years. Very impressed with this service after I called due to a battery problem. All I had to do was bring up the app, press a couple of buttons, and a service vehicle was at my door in 30 min. I didn’t even have to dial a phone number or enter my address. My problem was solved within 5 min after the tech arrived. WOW! Thanks T-Mobile!!!.Version: 3.8.6.10585
✓ Amazing product!I have a 2005 Honda Civic and we all know with older cars comes more problems. The sync up drive is amazing! I love the location barriers so I can always see where my car is and a few weeks ago I had a flat tire. I have no idea how to change a flat tire and I was alone. I went onto my app, requested road side assistance and someone came within 30 minutes to where I was parked and changed my flat tire. So much better than waiting for a tow truck. Love it! Thank you T-Mobile!.Version: 3.8.16.13951
✓ Awesome appThis app is really great. A truck hit my car while it was parked and because I got the notification of my car being disturbed, I was able to get the person’s insurance information because I called the police to report it after viewing the damage. My only pet peeve right now is I have a 2022 Honda Pilot but I have to use a picture of the Odyssey minivan, which I don’t have, because my car isn’t an option right now, which I really don’t understand. Don’t all vehicles have a 2022 model at this point? What’s taking so long? You’ll get back the star I removed once my actual vehicle is available. 🤷🏽♀️.Version: 3.11.0 (14863)
✓ Pretty amazing app...I have used a few of these services and this one is by far the best. It’s not perfect, but none of them are. The latest update changed the UI, but kept all of the features. It’s a fresh look on the same functionality. One thing I cannot get used to is the new card concept that defaults when you open the app. I MUCH preferred the old way where I could immediately see where the car is located. Now I have to dismiss the car info card to get the cars location. Hope they fix this..Version: 3.6.0.9373
✓ The SyncUP Drive saved my car!I love the SyncUP drive! So much that I have one in both of my cars. One night, I was out with some friends. Randomly I got a notification from the app stating that my vehicle had started a trip. I immediately run outside, and see that my car was no longer in the parking stall! I instantly opened up the app to go find out where the car was headed. Through the SyncUp Drive Application I was able to see exactly where they are driving. So I call the cops, get in the car with my friend, and begin to pursue my stolen car. Shortly after, they pulled into a neighborhood and turned the vehicle off. The app gave me an exact address which I gave to the 911 operator. As I’m driving to the cars location, multiple cop cars with sirens on pass us heading to the given location. We arrive to find 7 cop cars there with the suspect in hand cuffs. I was told to approach the scene, and let the officers know that this was my vehicle. I show them the SyncUP Drive application and explained everything. Ended up filling out some paperwork and got my car back right away! Thanks to the SyncUP drive, I was able to recover my stolen car within 20-minutes. I love the SyncUP and recommend it to anyone!.Version: 3.6.2.9500
✓ I love the control I have.This plug in truly gives me peace of mind when it comes to my car. Knowing I can check it’s safe where I last parked it, and being notified of any disturbances. The system checks (gas, battery, etc.) plus WiFi are just cherries on top. Not to mention the roadside assistance! I locked my keys in the car and almost forgot I had that feature. I rarely leave reviews but this one was worth it. I would recommend to anyone..Version: 3.8.4.10312
✓ Works good most of the timeWorks good for a couple weeks then strange things happen. For example, it shows that the car is parked, but, it still shows the last trip on the map, even when switching the display to the second car. Then this morning my wife drove 2 miles to Walmart here in Reno and the map showed it a couple hundred miles NW of New Zealand and there it remained even after driving home - the addresses were correct but not the map. I had to unplug it and add it back..Version: 2.15.0
✓ Love the trip analyticsSyncUp drive has been very helpful for me as I do tons of driving for work and it keeps track of mileage, fuel consumption and even full route information to provide to my employer. Also it is a no brainer to have one in a teenagers car and it helps me keep track of my teenager’s whereabouts and driving behavior. The multi car and multi geofence options help provide me alerts when any of my vehicles have left a designated area. Thank you T-mobile, it is a bargain at $10/month..Version: 2.1.1
✓ For some reason my device isn’t workingI’ve unplugged my device and plugged back in, I was driving tho, but I’m not able to track the car and always says parked. I called the number of the sim that’s in the device, and it says driving now, which the car is being driven. But i think it stopped working again. I think there needs to be an update, possibly with some new features. Like gas prices and how much a trip costs. More setting for the WiFi, like who’s connected, instead of going into the up address. I love the device tho!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Very Useful, worth every penny.Been having it for over 3 years, &’ I totally love it. Worth every Penny. I don’t need to take my car to a mechanic, because this thing tells me right away when something isn’t right with my car it gives me codes. I’ve got saved multiple times when my car was getting towed it alerts you right away.. it’s very useful love it..Version: 3.11.6
✓ Needs some added featuresApp is good at first but it’s missing some features. App need to have an option to delete the trip history and not have it compromised and stored in the app always. This should be an option you T-Mobile should give the customer not for them to decide. App should have some of the same features from the website version like a color coded guide for hard brakes, rapid acceleration etc..Version: 3.6.2.9500
