Needs Improvement
Bottom line is ? The app works as it should when it wants ? Get the bugs fixed and would be a pleasant experience !

Frustrating Experience with Sync up Drive Endless Sync and Location Issues
1. Constant Reconfiguration Needed
Even though the Syncup Drive device is connected to the car, the app constantly thinks it’s a brand-new vehicle. Every time you start the car, it acts as if it’s never seen it before. You end up having to add new cars and new profiles repeatedly.
2. Frequent “Merge” Prompts
After adding duplicate cars (profiles). It’s confusing, time-consuming, and feels like the app doesn’t recognize its own data.
3. Incorrect GPS Location
Another recurring issue is the car showing up in completely wrong locations. More than once, it’s shown my car as being in North Dakota when I’m actually in Florida. This isn’t a one-time glitch; it happens frequently and makes tracking unreliable.
4. IMEI Confusion
To make things worse, you practically need to memorize the IMEI numbers of your devices just to manage your cars properly. Each time the app resets or loses sync, you have to reinstall the profile and reassign the correct IMEI to the right car manually.
In summary: Drive One feels like it’s still in beta testing. The concept is promising, but the current experience is buggy and far from seamless. Until they fix the syncing logic, location errors, and repetitive reconfiguration process, it’s more hassle than help.
Needs Improvement
My other issue concerns the hotspot and the app itself. The communication between the two, tends to disconnect, when the device is plugged in.
Awesome app
Paying for the service but not working
Won’t work
Great app except the speed limit
FULL of Bugs!
On the latest iOS 26.0.1 trying to setup my new SyncUP Drive, and when it asks me to name my car, the Next button does nothing. I couldn’t get past this screen until I tried many attempts to tap the button. I don’t have any problems with buttons on any other apps, just this one. Does T-Mobile test this app??
I have an active diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for the EGR flow on my 2001 GMC Yukon, and this was a good opportunity to see how this app reports the DTC. While it reports there is an active code, it displays NOTHING whatsoever about what the code actually is. Disappointing.
When I unplugged and replugged the device to the ODB2 port, it reset all of my SyncUp Drive app notification settings for no reason.
The battery monitor only tells you if the battery is good or not, but does not show a graph of battery level history which would be a lot more useful to see any charge and drain trends.
There is no setting to extend the duration of WiFi hotspot beyond engine off. That is a big missing feature, as sometimes I like to continue to have my devices connected to WiFi when stopping briefly to get gas etc.
Sometimes the app crashes and takes me back to the iPhone home screen, or hangs when first starting up and then I have to force close it and then start it again.
When I used to have Verizon Hum+ (now being discontinued) their app was 100x more reliable and with more useful features.
This app is junk and T-Mobile needs to completely redo it and add a lot of missing functionality that the device hardware is capable of.
Why can’t it even show the DTC??

Save Your Money. Get Something Else
Totally not worth it. I would go with other options for sure.
