I still haven't had the email invite for the apps either. I've had the PCM upgrade and I went back in for the "PCM/Nav recall" but still nothing. OPC are clueless as to how this migration to online apps vs phone-based apps transition works.

I'm not that bothered about the New Way (tm) except that the map updates that I've paid for are not going to come OTA any more unless the transition happens.

Thinking about it Goron same thing happens with Chester zoo! You put in the post code and it dumps you in a roundabout. But weirdly when i searched for chester zoo in the PCM it drove us straight in!

I went back to the Garage to ask them to remind Porsche central that I was still waiting. Within a day I then received the email invite and I now have all the apps. After the initial excitement trying them out I actually see little day to day use. This is not a gripe - the car drives so well and puts such a big smile on my face that the apps seem like an incidental.

What are the apps? I'm not sure if I have them or not.

See link below showing all the apps. I was one of the first to get them but have not used them much to be honest. Apart from real time traffic which has been useful and online map updates.

You need connect +

An extra fuel tank for the GTS would be more useful on the GTS LOL

I reckon Goron should run a workshop / drop in centre to help us figure out how to get the best out of PCM / Connect +
