New Ram brand app to replace Mopar app

[millerbjm]

I was on the pacifica forum today (my other vehicle is a pacifica hybrid) and saw a post about the new Chrysler app for mobile and the fact it is more user friendly and has more info than the existing mopar owners app. Sure enough when I checked the Mopar app it had a notice to upgrade to the new brand apps - I was then prompted to select from the various Stellantis brands and dowloaded the Chysler app. The new app shows both my Chrysler and the Ram and switches between the 'brands' based on the menu which is nice so I don't need two apps on the phone. I don't really see much of a difference for my ram because my truck doesn't have the connected services (remote lock/unlock, sos etc.) but for the pacifica hybrid which does it was a big upgrade as I know have access to vehicle heath, charge and fuel levels, scheduled conditioning etc. The next question is whether that is all still dependant on an active Guardian subscription or not. For those of you with higher trim or optioned trucks I am guessing the new Ram app will be nice and may replace the need for the Uconnect app.

The 2022s+ have different subscriptions models.

I have a 2022 and there are no Guardian services it's all through Ram. Also the uConnect app doesn't work, you need to use the "Ram" app.
It's all worthless. You can see the oil level (same as inside the truck) air pressure and fuel tank fill amount.

My 2022 Limited only came with a 6 month subscription.

Do people ever renew "connected services"? Price vs benefit seems to be out of proportion.

I can't see many people renewing it. I actually like being able to remote start from my phone/watch, but I'm not paying $10 or $15 (I don't remember the exact cost) for that.

Depends on the brand. Essentially AT&T and Sirius still run all of this, no matter what its called.
Ford has some features longer. Nissan has part of it for like 5 years free.
Depends on what the manufacturer strikes a deal for.

Even if you don't pay for connected services, Ram keeps wireless connections to your truck, they just don't allow you to use it

That is possible for mileage and diagnostic information. Haven't fooled around with the settings enough in the RAM to see if this can be disabled.

In a Nissan, you can turn OFF data transmission in the settings.

No, you can't disable the always connected features.

for some reason, mine expired yesterday and all fonctions are.still working today... maybe there is a delay...

 

[JF19Longhorn]

About time they updated that app.

No, I did not renew for two reasons: 1) cost, it should be free. It was on all my Fords and the app was 100x better. 2) it never worked.. the delay was so bad that it would either timeout or take over 5 minutes to complete the request. By then I was in the truck going down the road.

I just switched over to the RAM app from the UConnect app. Seems to have same features, just looks better. I am hoping it is less buggy, since recently I have been having issues with UConnect remote start also unlocks the doors so the truck is started remotely but unlocked. I guess time will tell…

When my subscription was still active I used the RAM app all the time to remote start my truck, and it never unlocked the doors.
