### 2/5 — Does not work on Ford F250 screen

*2026-03-19, version 6.3.2*

This app used to show up on my F250 screen but now it says it’s not configured.  Is there something I need to do to configure so it will show tire pressure/temperature on my F250 screen like it used to?

### 2/5 — No CarPlay

*2025-10-04, version 6.2.1*

Please enable CarPlay again

### 1/5 — New update

*2025-09-19, version 6.2.0*

I did like it, until the new update. Now I can't even connect anymore.

### 1/5 — Used to be reasonable

*2025-09-17*

So this app used to work more or less ok wasn’t perfect but got the job done. Now I have to log in repeatedly even more than once a day sometimes when I shouldn’t have to log in at all. LCI just wants to track all the things. 

Well I’ll be contacting LCI as this nifty new “feature” logged me out while slides were in motion (only trying to bring DS slide in a bit to release tension on slide topper to work on the rail) well since it logged me out it kept running the slides the collided inside crushing the floor of one slide with the couch in the other and I had no way to stop it. Pump continues to run for several minutes before shutting down. When I tried to stop it from the panel inside it says feature I use from another location. 

Even after the pump stopped and the damage had been done. A monitor two layers or tried again to squeeze them together. 

I will no longer use this app for anything beyond lighting and HVAC control, and will also be contacting Lippert to write the check for repairs to the couch and slide floor replacement.

### 1/5 — Log in

*2025-09-16, version 6.2.0*

Now I cannot even log in.
Frustrating app. Pretty much useless.

### 2/5 — Having to log back in is a pain

*2025-09-15, version 6.2.0*

Requires you to re-login regularly, which is a huge pain when you're camping and trying to just quickly turn on/off a light.

### 2/5 — Unnecessary Log Ins

*2025-09-15*

I agreed with 79 Zebra. I’ve had to log in 5 times today just to check tank levels and turn on/turn off lights. The only thing I am using it for is right at the camper local. It is very annoying to have to log on just for a brief activity. I should not need to log on to Lippert to turn on lights that are through a Bluetooth connection if I am within the Bluetooth range. I camp a lot in areas that have no cell phone nor internet signals how is that going to affect the application?

### 1/5 — TPMS Car Play Removed

*2025-09-14, version 6.2.0*

Latest version does not connect to apple car play and no longer allows you to safely check you tires.  This needs to be corrected ASAP!!

### 2/5 — LC

*2025-09-12, version 6.2.0*

Does the tire linc app still work on car play

### 2/5 — WiFi delay

*2025-09-10, version 6.2.0*

The WiFi option should allow you to disable it in the connection option. If you only want Bluetooth you might want to start a hobby you can do while waiting for WiFi to give up.

### 1/5 — Missing models

*2025-09-02, version 6.1.6*

App so no support for the 100 series reflection.

### 1/5 — Stupid RV Details screen

*2025-08-27, version 6.1.6*

Please for the love of God get rid of that stupid RV Details Screen. Or if you must have it, don’t force it to pop up and block the ability to use the app at all. People do not have their VIN memorized and requiring it to be entered every time is asinine.

### 1/5 — No longer reliable

*2025-08-03*

The only reason that I use this app is to check tank levels. The latest version of the app does not show the same levels as the panel inside the trailer. After dumping the panel will show empty but the app shows 1/3.

### 1/5 — Useless app now

*2025-07-31, version 6.1.5*

I’ve reported this bug and it still isn’t fixed with the latest update on July 30, 2025. Deleted app and reinstalled hoping bug fixed, but no. After connecting to TT, apple forces user to enter vehicle information and the app hangs on the enter VIN field. Enter the VIN and NOTHING happens. Other fields and continue buttons don’t activate. Closing the app and reopening forces the user to the same screen, so I’m locked in a loop and the app is USELESS!!!

### 1/5 — No to VIN

*2025-06-27, version 6.1.3*

It's not necessary for you to know my vin before I can look at the temperature inside the refrigerator

### 1/5 — Broken- no generator controls

*2025-06-25, version 6.1.3*

Ever since about four updates ago, my generator controls are blank. I can no longer start and stop the generator from the app.

### 2/5 — Updates

*2025-06-23, version 6.1.2*

Must we log in again after every update?

### 1/5 — Frustration

*2025-04-02, version 6.0.3*

Update is a failure,  come on guys you can do better.  Checklist does not work, Bluetooth connection is slow

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Was a decent app before update

*2026-07-12*

Used to be able to use the app.  I primarily used it for setup when i was on the exterior of the camper, and when i would flush the tanks so i could remotely monitor the tank levels. Now I have to log in just to connect to bluetooth, which after the last update, doesn’t work. It will not sync to the board if it does, had to delete my camper and re-add it, now it does not show my battery, tank levels, light or slide statues. This thing was good before, now it’s garbage.  Prime example of fix it till its broke.

### 1/5 — Battery drain

*2026-07-03*

This app runs in the background and will drain your battery.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-07-03*

Why should you have to log in to use the app to use on your personally owned trailer, constantly requiring to log in, why should Lippert have knowledge of my trailer

### 1/5 — Won’t stay connected

*2026-06-07*

I am constantly fighting with this app. Each time I go to use it, I have to repair it.

### 1/5 — … and totally broken now

*2026-04-14, version 6.4.0*

Oscillates between WiFi and Bluetooth. Nothing works now.

### 1/5 — Dims lights on its own

*2026-03-21, version 6.3.2*

Since the latest update i have noticed dimmable lights, the app keeps setting them at 50% brightness when i turn on any dimmable light. I have to repeatedly set the brightness to 100%.   Real pain in the ars.

### 1/5 — Unnecessary login

*2025-11-26, version 6.2.2*

They took what should be a very simple app and added so many logins that you could never actually use it

### 1/5 — What about the Serenova 160lg?

*2025-11-08, version 6.2.1*

I installed the app, but Serenova is not even listed as an option.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2025-10-05*

We’ve had a grand design travel trailer for five years. Used the previous compass connect app with just a Bluetooth connection and no major issues. It wasn’t flawless, but it worked well enough.

Whatever was changed is terrible. The app previously had my trailer information. Now I have to login and when I try to submit my travel trailer info the app times out before I can even get the VIN inputted let alone any other info. Thanks for complicating a decent system and making it useless.

### 1/5 — Logging in every time!

*2025-09-20*

Every time I go to use the app I have to log in even though I have created an account and logged in previously.   Get a little old when your standing outside in the rain to open your slide and the app asks for your login and password which your have to type in every time.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-08-31, version 6.1.6*

The app only gets better with each update. I use the app only every camping trip. It’s nice to be able to adjust the lighting while outside.

### 5/5 — Great feature

*2024-06-11*

I have been using this app for three years now, and it is one of my favourite features of our 2022 reflection. The developers have made many improvements over the last couple years to keep it bug free, totally functional and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2021-04-04, version 3.11.2*

No problems works great on iPhone 11

### 5/5 — Have found the App to be excellent

*2021-03-29*

Used the App last fall into this spring over the past week without fail.  So handy to use from our phones.  Love it.  We have a 2021 late fall GD295RL

### 5/5 — Works great for iPhone 12

*2021-03-10, version 3.10.5*

No problems using the app the only thing I don’t care for is the the licensing

### 4/5 — Broke what was working

*2022-07-04, version 5.1*

Voltage display fixed.  Haven’t been able to verify manual leveling page exit method yet.  Thanks for listening and fixing it!

### 4/5 — Nice update but…

*2022-05-15, version 5.0.2*

The battery voltage is blank where it used to display properly. 
(2022 GD Imagine 2500RL)

### 4/5 — Pretty handy! Would love to see custom labels for slide outs.

*2021-07-01*

Hi guys, thanks for the great app! Super handy for getting slides out in tight quarters. Any chance you can add an option to give the slideout controls custom text labels? It would be great to add a custom text label like “Bedroom”  to slideout 2 so you can easily remember which slideouts are which. (My Solitude has 5 slideouts so it sure would be handy!)
Thanks!

### 4/5 — Works Great Need Larger Fonts on TireLinc

*2021-05-30, version 3.13*

Please increase the font on Tire Pressure and Temperature in the TireLinc view.

### 3/5 — Notifications

*2026-01-25, version 6.2.2*

Please fix the app so we can delete older notifications.
