### 2/5 — Please update!

*2023-09-29, version 3.11.10*

App keeps randomly disconnecting. Please fix

### 2/5 — Glitches

*2023-07-05, version 3.11.8*

I have around 75%  percent of a tank of gas. 3 times so far today the app has noticed my I’m done to 24% fuel. I even went to check to be safe and I’m fine.

### 4/5 — Pick your gone

*2023-06-04, version 3.11.8*

This was a good app but now when you go to pick your car that used to be on there and it showed my car it’s suddenly disappear and it’s a really pain because every time I hit something it wants to go to there. It tells me it can’t connect, I can’t connect to the server

### 4/5 — Loading

*2023-06-01, version 3.11.8*

It’s always loading even when it’s parked and the loading wheel just spends in circles

### 3/5 — Meh

*2023-05-25, version 3.11.8*

I rely on this for certain info and it has been very helpful until the past couple of days for some reason. Uninstalled app, disconnected device and when I open the app to check info, it just constantly loads. Not sure if it’s an app issue, device issue or both but something needs a redesign. This is inconveniencing!!!

### 3/5 — Logs out

*2023-01-19, version 3.11.8*

How am I supposed to know my car is secure when this app keeps logging me out in the background, you are charging for this!! Fix it!

### 1/5 — Very unreliable

*2023-01-02, version 3.11.8*

I keep trying to sign in loads for a long time then says server error try again later..

### 2/5 — App needs an Upgrade

*2022-12-25, version 3.11.8*

I recently upgraded from the SPRINT-Drive. It showed REAL time tracking, hard turns, hard stops, and the exact speed the car was going. This device doesn’t do that!

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2022-11-03, version 3.11.8*

Every since we had got this it keep stop working. example I leave one place and it did not register where I was and after I got home witch is an hour drive still said I never left from where I was.. I got this so I could keep track of where the cars where.. I’m not happy with this and how much its wasting money and time..

### 1/5 — What

*2022-09-01, version 3.11.6*

How do I delete it ?

### 3/5 — App does not work

*2022-08-22, version 3.11.5*

Trying to put imei number it states invalid but it is activated…garbage

### 4/5 — Such a lifesaver!

*2022-07-05, version 3.11.5*

I was stranded on the side of the road in a whole different state and was low on cash and luckily I remembered that T-Mobile covered car maintenance like flat tire, tow, etc.! So lucky for me, I had someone help me put my spare tire on all thanks to T-Mobile! You guys are great!

### 1/5 — i want my sprint drive back!

*2022-06-03, version 3.11.5*

this app and link unit are complete garbage if you are switching from sprint drive, you will be extremely disappointed. it says my vehicle is still driving while i’ve been home for over a 1/2 hour. nothing is accurate about it. no speed settings. nothing works like it’s supposed to. if i can’t switch back to my sprint drive, i’m giving this link back. it’s completely useless.

### 1/5 — Don’t work right

*2022-05-22, version 3.11.5*

Was told by T-mobile have to upgrade from sprint drive to SyncUP drive (T-mobile)
The sprint drive was working great, switched to SyncUP Drive and the SyncUP is very slow and can’t watch any movies 
Those don’t feel like a upgrade, more like a down grade

### 2/5 — No web browser

*2022-05-16, version 3.11.5*

We have Sprint Drives right now and are able to see our drivers on the web browser , ibut T-Mobile is forcing a change to SyncUP due to the CDMA shutdown .. would be nice if SyncUP drive had a web browser we have no other choice but to switch,

### 1/5 — Notifications stop working

*2022-03-31, version 3.11.4 (14940)*

No notifications at all delete app and reinstall app still no notifications. Please fix app .

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2022-02-13, version 3.11.4 (14940)*

This does many things. However, I want to monitor my 17 year old’s driving. That is all I care about. I had a previous version of this SyncUp Drive three or so years ago for my daughter. 
I just installed a TMobile brand new unit and updated the software. 
What??? The software no longer follows the speed of the car when my son is driving. It did 3-4 years ago! Continually. 
It also no longer monitors a “hard” brake. It did that also 3-4 years ago. 
So as technology has improved over the last 3-4 years, instead of adding some great feature, they took away the primary reasons why I wanted this SyncUp Drive in the first place. 
*Hopefully, TMobile reads this. Please. I don’t need these other services. The car has a GPS. My children have cell phones. No need for locator (on phone), Hotspot (on phone), trip history (on GPS and phone), etc. 
Disappointing.

### 1/5 — No notifications on IOS

*2024-09-02, version 3.11.10*

Twice now this year for long periods (days and weeks) stops sending any notifications.  Have no idea that cars stared or ended trips.  No speeding notification or out of geofence.  Worthless.  T-Mobile doesn’t seem to be able to get their vendor inline (Mojio)

### 1/5 — Saving images in glovebox doesn’t work

*2024-07-18, version 3.11.10*

When attempting to add something to the glovebox of the app, when you add an image and click save, the app does recognize the change.

### 1/5 — Server Errors

*2024-04-25, version 3.11.10*

The app stopped working.  It logged me out and when I tried to log back in it times out and pops a message titled “Unable to Complete” with the message “We have encountered a server error.  Please try again later”

### 1/5 — TMobile SyncUP

*2024-04-25, version 3.11.10*

UPDATE 4/24/25: app was working fine yesterday now I can’t log in. Then I get an error message stating invalid username/password Then we I try to reset password, I get an error message stating server error. I’m, I don’t know what’s going on, but this app needs to be fixed.I love this little device. I have had it for about 3 years. It catches the problem before I get a check engine light. Hopefully TMobile will update the device with a little more of an upgrade to the WiFi hotspot part of it.

### 1/5 — Daly unwanted fill up notifications

*2024-01-20, version 3.11.10*

No! It is not getting better. It notifies me every day to gas up my car.

Since there is no place to disable that type of notification, I have revoked ALL notifications from SyncUP DRIVE.

### 1/5 — App Has been Abandoned in Favor of a Newer Model

*2023-07-09, version 3.11.10*

The app is no longer receiving any meaningful updates. It has been abandoned and replaced by a new app with a new sync up model. Very scummy of tmobile.

### 1/5 — Notifications stopped working, no response for developers

*2023-04-06, version 3.11.8*

I’ve emailed the developers with detailed concerns. Notifications are no longer working! And where the picture of your car is supposed to be in app, the throbber/loading icon appears—even after logging out, uninstalling, and reinstalling. The entire point of paying for this device is to have those notifications for safety. It’s not right that y’all haven’t even responded to my email.

### 1/5 — Error, error and more errors

*2023-01-12, version 3.11.8*

I’ve had this devise for a year.  For 11.5 months it has worked great.  Shows me everything.  Now it wont find me, doesnt show my car and I get an error and it wont update or correct itself.  Been happening for the past 3 weeks and Im just about done and ready to cancel.

### 1/5 — Too many errors

*2023-01-03, version 3.11.8*

Keeps giving me an error and won’t let me log in at all and I know I have the correct passcode. I’m about to cancel my service for this device.

### 1/5 — App stopped working

*2023-01-02, version 3.11.8*

### 5/5 — Rgreen2091

*2024-06-02, version 3.11.10*

Oh so this is how he tracked me illegally against my knowledge. I hope the double life was worth it. Now I know he’s never where he says he is. If someone can offer more advice on investigating hit up my ig which is title

### 5/5 — Very Useful, worth every penny.

*2022-10-24, version 3.11.6*

Been having it for over 3 years, &’ I totally love it. Worth every Penny. I don’t need to take my car to a mechanic, because this thing tells me right away when something isn’t right with my car it gives me codes. I’ve got saved multiple times when my car was getting towed it alerts you right away.. it’s very useful love it.

### 5/5 — I have 2 SD 7000T1

*2022-04-16, version 3.11.5*

My I ask why the new update let out the newest model which is the model that I have they were working just fine and now I see the new app left out my 2 models

### 5/5 — SyncUP Drive

*2021-10-23, version 3.11.0 (14863)*

Useful app. With this app and the T-Mobile SyncUp Drive device you can view helpful information about the vehicle the unit is plugged into. Can see trouble codes, current vehicle location, if you click on fuel local area gas prices are displayed.

*2021-09-21, version 3.11.0 (14863)*

Love the device!! I had an option for suggested  maintenance for my vehicle every so many miles, and can’t find it now (I think it’s removed) so I wish that was back but hopeful they will add it again!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-08-10, version 3.11.0 (14863)*
