If this is not done then the App is useless as far as I’m concerned as it won’t work with my iPhone. Therefore I may as well delete it. Software developer please take note and do the UPDATE. ### 4/5 — Need an upgrade *2018-05-20, version 3.0.3* Fantastic app but need to upgrade to work with iOS 11 ### 1/5 — NO UPDATES!!! DEVELOPER WILL NOT UPDATE!! *2017-12-21, version 3.0.3* The developer will not keep the app up to date. 4 years since last update. Therefore it does NOT work with iOS 11. Apple should ban developers who abuse Apple’s platform to market their apps and then will not keep their apps up to date with new iOS. ### 3/5 — Needs work *2017-11-01, version 3.0.3* Great idea but not quite there yet. Also would be great if it was to link with Spotify! ### 3/5 — Could be a great app *2017-10-26, version 3.0.3* This app has a nice set of features but hasn't 't been updated in 4 years. Maybe the developer has abandoned because Of Apple Car Play? I hope the developer will provide some response before I decide to delete it. ### 3/5 — The application does not work needs to be updated *2017-10-11, version 3.0.3* The application idea is very impressive but needs updating to work on iOS 11 . ### 5/5 — Fantastic! Need iOS11 update please! *2017-09-24, version 3.0.3* Really good app! Makes car journeys very easy! Versatile, easy to use and brilliant visuals. Need iOS11 update please!!!! ### 4/5 — Love it *2017-09-08, version 3.0.3* Just like the newer car info screen ## Frequently asked questions about iCarConnect ### What does iCarConnect do? iCarConnect transforms your iOS device into a comprehensive on-board computer for your car.
