Step-By-Step Guide for Setting Up Your Account
To set up your account, start by opening the newly downloaded myChevrolet app. Once it opens, you'll be directed to either create an account or sign in to an existing one. Enter the email address you gave to the dealership when you purchased the vehicle. If you have an existing OnStar account, you can also sign in with the same email address associated with OnStar to sync the two services.
Once you've entered your email address, you'll be presented with a multifactor authentication process. For most smartphones, this includes either scanning your fingerprint or using your Face ID. The multifactor authentication process ensures that you're the only one able to access your myChevrolet app.
Initial Configuration and App Navigation
After you log into your myChevrolet app, it's time to configure it to work with your vehicle. You can do this by visiting the Account Menu in the upper right corner. Within this menu, you'll see an option to add a new vehicle to your app. Select this option and follow the instructions on the screen.
When you connect your vehicle to the myChevrolet app, you'll see three tabs on the app's home screen. The first is the My Vehicle tab, where you'll find essential remote commands and quick-view widgets. The next tab is Controls, which provides additional remote commands and customizable vehicle settings. Finally, the last tab is the Help Center, where you can access tools such as roadside assistance or schedule your next maintenance visit.
Key Features and Functionalities
The myChevrolet app comes with many features and functionalities, each designed to improve your driving experience.
Remote Access and Commands
The myChevrolet app allows you to control your vehicle remotely through a smartphone, providing convenience and security. You can start or stop the engine, lock or unlock doors, and even activate the horn and lights, which is useful for locating the vehicle in a crowded area. These features work through a connected OnStar plan and require an internet or cellular connection. The app also displays real-time vehicle status, such as fuel level, tire pressure, and oil life. For electric Chevrolet models, you can monitor battery levels and remotely manage charging, ensuring efficient energy use.
Vehicle Management Tools
The myChevrolet app also serves as a digital command center, helping owners stay on top of maintenance and performance. It provides alerts for scheduled service, recalls, and diagnostic reports, helping prevent unexpected breakdowns. You can schedule service appointments directly from the app and access the owner's manuals and how-to videos. Additionally, the myChevrolet app includes a Vehicle Health feature, offering real-time insights into engine performance, brake system status, and other crucial diagnostics.
GPS and Location-Based Services
Finally, the app includes built-in GPS functionality, offering tools such as real-time vehicle location tracking, a parking locator, and turn-by-turn navigation. The Send-to-Vehicle feature lets you send navigation directions from your phone to the in-car infotainment system, minimizing distractions while driving. Chevrolet owners with OnStar services can also use the app for roadside assistance requests, such as towing or emergency support. For added security, the app's Stolen Vehicle Assistance helps law enforcement track and recover a stolen car. These GPS-based features enhance convenience and safety, making travel and vehicle management much easier.
Smart Integration and Additional Resources
The myChevrolet app enhances convenience by integrating with smart devices and digital platforms. It supports voice commands through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to start your vehicle, check fuel levels, or lock doors using voice controls. Apple Watch compatibility adds further accessibility, enabling quick remote commands. These integrations make it easier to manage vehicle functions hands-free.
Beyond remote control, the app provides valuable owner resources and tutorials. You can access digital versions of owner's manuals, troubleshooting guides, and instructional videos tailored to your Chevrolet model. This feature helps you understand your vehicle's functions and address minor issues without visiting a dealership. Additionally, the app offers recall notifications and direct access to Chevrolet customer support.
