## What is GM DashCompanion?

GM DashCompanion is the companion app for the GM CAR TECH JKX digital dash for the Jeep Wrangler JK.

Plug your iPhone into the dash's USB cable - or connect through your head unit - and:

THEME STORE
- Browse gauges, wallpapers and boot logos made for the GM dash - analogue needle gauges and animated graphical gauges, in your dash's colours
- Install the ones you own on your dash in one tap, and remove them any time
- Your items are kept in your GM Dash Store account - put them on any of your dashes, even after changing phones

DASH SOFTWARE
- Get new dash software from your phone - download it, plug in, tap Update digital dash

DASH SCREENS
- Jump the dash to Road, Snow, Sand, Mud, Rock, Night, Off Road or the Cast screens from the app or a home-screen widget
- Dash photo widget: your own photo with the dash screens below it

HEAD UNIT
- Pair once with your head unit (running GM DashCompanion) over Bluetooth: your iPhone's notifications and Google Maps turn-by-turn directions show on the dash
- The app reaches the dash through the head unit - no cable needed, even when the iPhone and head unit share your home Wi-Fi

SPEED LIMIT, COMPASS AND ALTITUDE
- Plugged into the dash, your iPhone's GPS drives the dash's compass, altitude and the speed limit sign of the road you're on (OpenStreetMap road data, worldwide)

OBD DIAGNOSTICS
- Read and clear check-engine codes with a Bluetooth 4.0 OBD adapter (e.g. Vgate iCar 2 Bluetooth 4.0)
- Advanced Scan of every Jeep Wrangler JK module: ABS, airbags, body, TPMS, transmission and more

ALSO
- Your own photo on the home page, Apple Music controls and volume

Requires a GM CAR TECH JKX digital dash (gmcartech.com).
