  • Cool features - complicated

    I think the app is awesome and super cool. I don’t really understand how to add a vehicle and frankly don’t want to share my cars vin in an app. BUT And I cannot express how much I enjoy this- SATELLITE MAPS. Google Maps has it, but the quality is so bad. Literally is the best. Maybe add traffic lines also!
  • Good but Not Good Enough

    Unlike Google maps or Waze, this app, Sidecar does not show speed limits or the speed you’re driving. This is a known deficiency in Apple Maps and until Apple institutes a speedometer and speed limit notification in its Maps app Sidecar is really useless. Unfortunately, it’s pretty good but lacking. So until Apple adds those features, I will continue to use either Waze or Google maps as my primary navigation choice .
  • Best app ever!

    The app is useless without developer support, and the support team isn’t responding.
  • No support for getting refund on removed features

    I paid the $9.99 price when Safari in CarPlay was added. The feature was removed a few days later as the developer was told by Apple to remove it. The app said we could request a refund. When I did that with Apple my refund was denied and there’s no way to appeal it after the first appeal even though the app developer says that it should be eligible for refund.
  • Garbage App

    Get Car Scanner Pro instead for 8 bucks, an engineer’s dream app that is way more capable and missing all the pay walls.
  • Great App!

    Great app! Please add support for Volkswagen Atlas. I love the 3D Map and widgets. Also along with Apple Music widget, please add support other streaming widgets (i.e. Spotify, SiriusXM, YouTube Music, etc) to the map.

    This app is super innovative and constantly improving. CarPlay is an untapped gem and Sidecar shows what is possible when someone puts effort into growing an application. Glad to have found this early enough to watch it continue to evolve and improve!
