Had to re-install the app (Paid for) on a Note8. Now it diverts all call to voicemail without ringing, even when the app isn’t on. I had to ring my provider and get voicemail reset so that I can once again receive calls.The app itself is pretty out of date and when installing it it […]

I had to uninstall and reinstall app, wipe cache, and then it started to not force close. Only bug, which is really annoying, left I came across is the volume of app/dashboard always lowers when I return to the home page of dashboard. Doesn’t matter how I return to the app, it will lower the […]

The speed limit notice goes off once I put my car in gear. The interface for Spotify keeps freezing. I have sent 2 support request in the last couple of months with zero response. I really hope this can be fixed. I’m a professional driver and I need something reliable.

UPDATE: Same unanswered question from 2022. Emailed developer 2x. Is there a method to backup and restore the data? Have a new phone and would like to keep my setup. Just a couple of suggestions for enhanced usability – 1) Allow to browse and select for icon file type(s) when creating a “shortcut popup”, 2) […]

Truly useful app. From being a full 5 star app stops one thing only. Please make the pages number editable so that one can choose how many pages they want to see (there’s no need for all of them to be visible if one wants only 3) And a suggestion please add an option to […]

I guess the failure to autolaunch upon BT connection is another casualty of Google’s nanny-state fiddling? Edit: thanks for the feedback! Still an excellent app. Bought and used it for years without issues and would buy it again. @everyone having this issue: find an old version of Trigger app (made by Coleridge apps, no longer […]

I’ve been using this app “stand alone” for years and more recent in conjunction with Android Auto without any problems. Unfortunately after installing the latest version it stopped playing nice with AA, the speed indicator has stopped working and sits at 00. It still works stand alone, not connected to AA. Anyone else seen this […]

Been using this for years. Direct Dial recently not supported? Also Speedometer no longer works. Toggles back and forth from 7 to 10 mph. UPDATE 1/15/23 Support had me review permissions needed for Direct Dial. Somewhere in one of my recent security updated permission for the app was disabled. Once I re-enabled it Direct Dial […]

Good App, gets the basics done easily. My only real issues are no native voice commands and the biggest one, the fact that when I use it, I can’t use my Sat Nav App, Sygic without it being forced into landscape mode. Unfortunately I can’t position my phone in landscape in the car, there’s simply […]

It beats Android Automotive because it is much more customizable. However there are some improvements I’d like to see. CHU doesn’t manage switching to Pandora from other media playes very well. The “CHU features” should include optional on/off toggles for wifi, bluetooth, and cellular data. When I try to edit an icon it takes me […]

Update 1/20/2019 – Per the reply from the app’s author, i sent them email and received a successful work around in less than 24 hours. Revising my rating for the app to four stars and an extra star for great customer service! —————– As of about 1/8/2019, I can no longer launch or use Waze […]

I’ve been with this app since it was first released. I never had a problem until this latest update. Now the option to automatically turn off wifi when launching the app stopped working. So my phone is constantly searching for a signal while I’m driving. Once that’s fixed I would give it 5 stars again.

Dead? No updates for 20 months!!? in general this is OK but misses the most basic thing which is a major problem – it does NOT start playing music as soon as the app opens. You cannot get this to happen, there is no setting for it… so you have to fiddle with your phone […]

Love this app, used it for years. Still the best “car dock” app… by far.

Basic function now fails. As others have mentioned, on latest version of Android direct dial now results in an error. No useful explanation or solution provided.

The bad first: Compass off by about 180 degrees (while other compass apps on my phone are working fine). Advertised auto SMS function does not exist. I would like to be able to freely choose the number of pages I use. Music player control keeps crashing. Now the good: Despite the above, this app does […]

This used to work great but now with the latest version, the “Applications” category is missing from the selections when I go to assign a button to the App. I’m using a Pixel 9 running Car Home Ultra ver 4.91

Has been my go-to dock app for years but when I switched to an LG G6, it became less useful. It seems the app cannot override the G6’s auto-off setting for the screen. No matter how I adjust it in the app, the screen will ALWAYS turn itself off after the set time. The only […]

***Update: The app has been updated and it now works fine with the Android 13! *** Second update: while the recent update fixed many issues, two new problems have popped up. The app no longer automatically starts and stops when connecting/disconnecting from a Bluetooth device, such as in-dash entertainment unit. Downgrading to 3 stars until […]

Love it. Automatically opens with Bluetooth connection to the car stereo. Big honkin’ app shortcuts, so I don’t pile into anyone while driving. Downloaded the free 30 day trial, and bought the full version within one day. Very customizable with clock, compass, maps, GPS speedometer, etc.
