OKEMOS, Mich. –– The new myChevrolet mobile app will enhance Chevrolet drivers' experiences when Chevrolet debuts it at CES 2016. It's yet another instance of Chevrolet continuing its integration of technology, like smartphone conveniences, into its vehicles.

The new app will enable drivers to control and manage their Chevy vehicle by combining new services it brings with current services from OnStar RemoteLink apps. This will provide drivers with "easier mobile access to roadside assistance, parking reminders, owner's manual content, vehicle diagnostics, Wi-Fi hotspot management, and key fob commands such as remote start and door unlock," according to Chevrolet.

The new myChevrolet mobile app will enhance Chevrolet drivers' experiences by offering a new user experience. The app will become the base for Chevy's venture into more advanced mobile options in the future for its drivers.

“The myChevrolet app will be the most comprehensive vehicle app available – and will support the ownership experience over the life of the vehicle,” said Paul Edwards, vice president, Chevrolet marketing. “By integrating OnStar RemoteLink features into the myChevrolet app, we’re creating a one-stop-app for owners to manage their vehicle with one user profile and unified log-in.”

With the synthesis of myChevrolet and OnStar RemoteLink, drivers will still have many current services from OnStar RemoteLink available to them through their smartphones, including:

  • Unlocking and locking vehicle's doors, 
  • Activating vehicle's horn and lights
  • Starting vehicle's engine from any distance
  • Diagnostics like vehicle fuel range, tire pressure, and oil life
  • Personalized retail offers from the AtYourService app feature
  • Sending directions to the vehicle's navigation system
  • Management of Wi-Fi hotspot and data plan (with OnStar 4G LTE-equipped vehicle)

These convenient features will be implemented into the new myChevrolet mobile app, along with the power to call on roadside assistance, schedule maintenance, access the vehicle owner manual, and set parking reminders. Depending on which services a driver uses most, they can set tabs on their home screen to make access to them quicker.

The new myChevrolet mobile app will be accessible to drivers with Chevy models from 2010 and up in the U.S. and Canada. Learn more about plans and pricing here.
