The App has been one of the few disappointments. It's slow. I've had to purge its cache several times and re-login when it would stop working. A few months ago, the picture of my truck that used to be on the screen disappeared. (More curiosity than a real problem, but a suggestion of other problems with the app itself)

This morning, I pulled it up because I wanted to see how much fuel I had in my truck. It went to a screen for me to review their "terms and privacy policy" where it's now stuck "loading". I killed the app, cleared the cache again, re-entered my email and password and the same thing. Can't get around this, so it's currently useless.

Ok, y’all done made me curious. I was using an iPhone X, but recently moved to a 12 Pro. Running the latest iOS as of this morning, 14.2.1.
I thought I would check it out. Took 4-5 seconds for the app to start, which does seem like a long time by today’s standards. However, compared to the ā€œoldā€œ computers requiring 4-5 mins to start and swapping disks out with the system files, it’s really very quick.
ā€˜Had to hold the button to lock the doors for 2 seconds before it took the command. Three more seconds and it reported successful.
Both the X and 12 Pro seem to run it fine. Have had some issues, restarting, hanging up, but they seem to get them fixed. The only real annoyance has been the red notifications button never going away. But, it’s not like it’s my home screen.
For the money I spent on it $0, it works great! I like it. Don’t use it everyday, but when I do, I’m satisfied.
