Not working, bad customer service

Loved device at first and worked fantastic. Started having problems sporadically for last year. Then ‘Trips’ not reporting correctly for last few months (in Boston area.) Customer Service is terrible, hard to reach and never solved issues. Then CS just stopped responding. Refused to replace device unless we returned current one first. Accused users of possible fraud when Vyncs could clearly see online that device was not working properly. They should have replaced device or refunded money. We replaced with new Bouncie device and that is working perfectly. So it is not our car, battery or port’s problem. Vyncs is having major issues, don’t get stuck with a year contract! Buyer beware!

Good Device

For the price it’s gives daily car updates and easy to set up and good tracking!! Would advise for business use

Response from developer

Thank you for your time and your review.

Good for price

Picks up good data. And GPS pops up on the phone. Pretty good. To buy a device and pay to activate it. The price I would say it is worth it. Especially if you have many cars.

Response from developer

Thank you for your time and your review.

Works as advertised!!!

Great product! I use it with another device just in case, but would be reliable alone. Buy one for each of your cars!

Response from developer

Thank you for your 5-star review. We are glad that our product and service have been useful to you.

Refunds for 3g devices

Have tried several emails with “Lisa M” with no clear resolution. We were promised a refund of the 3g device charge that was paid. They continue to say “they are looking into the account” but it seems nobody that works there is able to process the refund that is due. Purchasing the 4g device was a mistake. AVOID at all costs.

FAQ

What does the Vyncs app do?

The Vyncs app enhances car ownership by providing GPS tracking, vehicle maintenance alerts, driver scoring, and roadside assistance. It also features Vyncs Groups for real-time location tracking of loved ones and a lost/stolen phone finder.

How does Vyncs work?

You plug the Vyncs Link cellular wireless device into your car's OBD-II port. The device uses a built-in SIM card to send data to your Vyncs account over a cellular network, allowing you to access its features without needing a phone in the car.

Is Vyncs free to use?

While the app itself can be downloaded, using Vyncs requires a Vyncs account with a valid service package and the Vyncs Link device. The app offers features that are part of these paid services.

What are Vyncs Groups?

Vyncs Groups allows you to create private groups and add members via a custom code. Group members can see each other's real-time locations, and you can turn off tracking for specific groups or the entire feature at any time.

What kind of car information can I get from Vyncs?

Vyncs provides various services including real-time GPS tracking, vehicle maintenance reminders, recall notifications, driver scoring to coach teen drivers, and access to roadside assistance.
