Is Anyone Using the Uconnect Smartphone App?

I came up empty on a forum search. It says it is available for iPhone and Android...includes remote lock, unlock, start, horn and lights...plus download map directions, etc. The reviews are awful, but some features, like the remote start via smartphone, would be very nice to have.

I have used the app a couple of times in the past year. FYI - In testing, I noticed that I sometimes had to hit a command a second time (after waiting until it timed out the first time) in order for the truck to respond.

I use the app quite regularly. It definitely glitches often but I love the remote start from my phone. It's nice to use when my truck is parked further away then my key fob will reach. I've found over the past year that the app will become unresponsive and requires to uninstall and reinstall to get it to function again. Not a huge deal but pretty annoying

I have it installed and tested out the functions. I can see where I may want the remote start during the winter as my FOB won't reach the parking lot.
