Hog
Too many updates, inconvenient, quickly becoming space and resources hog, every time I try to use it I need an update wasting valuable space and cell data.
Too much locations
This is a review of the State Farm App, Not the company itself. I am very happy with state farm as a company.
This app requires precise location to be on 24/7. I notice the app polls my location way too often. There is no reason this should need to know my location when I am not in my car. The app should only poll my location when it sees the beacon. The app says my data is not sold, but I do not trust this. It is very easy to take my data, call it your own and then say I didn’t sell your data, I sold mine. If the app developers really cared about privacy, they would not poll location in the background without the presence of the beacon. They wouldn’t use any cell data without the presence of the beacon. The fact they do both when I am not in my car causes me great concern. This is also a huge drain on the battery. Battery usage is not a concern if I am driving as my phone is plugged in. They need better transparency for why they keep polling my location, less app requirements, and better control of where my data goes.
Also, please stop nagging me to setup passkey. Give me the option. Allow me to say no thanks and stop bugging me. I hate nagware and that’s what this app has become.

Annoying
Always wants to have blue tooth on even when home. Auto connects to all cars when they have the drive safe app just because you are in car. Both people cannot be driving and its annoying to have to correct every single trip in both cars
Can’t login
Even after changing password on desktop, verifying both username and password are correct I always get an error. I can login on desktop just fine.
