## Description

The Compass Connect App brings Smart Home convenience to your RV, letting you manage and customize key devices and features. Create custom Modes for trip stages, pin favorite devices, control slides and awnings, monitor battery and water levels, and build checklists for planning and maintenance.

For compatible RVs, access advanced features like Leveling with an active bubble level and Auto-Level, automatic generator control, customizable lighting, and remote control via ConnectAnywhere 2.0 with a Telematics plan.

## Review summary

Summary: Reviewers consistently cite stability and UX issues after updates. The most mentioned problems include: repeated logins and auto-logout; unstable connectivity (WiFi/Bluetooth switching) and crashes; CarPlay failures or removal; VIN/vehicle-detail prompts that trap users in a loop; and features disappearing after updates (e.g., only tank/battery levels visible). A minority praise lighting controls and note some updates gradually improve lighting features. Overall, users seek reliable connections, smoother CarPlay, and a less intrusive VIN flow.

### Pros

- Lighting control is a useful feature for campsite use and is appreciated when it works.
- Some reviews note that updates have improved certain aspects of the app, including lighting controls.
- Historically, Bluetooth-only operation offered straightforward control for basic trailer systems.

### Cons

- Frequent login prompts and forced re-login after updates, causing friction during use.
- Connectivity instability and crashes after updates (devices oscillating between WiFi and Bluetooth, or failing to connect/crashing on launch).
- CarPlay integration is broken or removed, with CarPlay not working and tire data not reliably accessible.
- VIN/vehicle-details prompts can trap users in a loop, forcing VIN input and causing navigation blocks.
- After updates, many features disappear or stop working (e.g., only tank/battery levels show while other services are unavailable).
