I agree with everything Andy has said and I pretty much have all the same problems. I have random crashes of the app. You can't view the app if you are in motion over about 5mph as it will "lock for your safety". And when you do come to a stop and try to look at the app it has to reconnect which tells me it was not "talking to" repeater the whole time I was driving. And it takes so long for the app to reconnect once you are stopped that the light is usually green and I am back in motion before it can reconnect and update the TPMS info.
I have tried using both the Grand Design app and the one straight from Lippert, but both have the same issue.
I got the Lippert TPMS system specifically because I could display the tire info on my F-150 sync 4 screen while driving and that would save me from having to have yet another device sitting up on my dash. I was hoping that it was actually updating the TPMS and just not letting me see it because the app was locked out while driving. But I did a test where it was all connected and working in my driveway, drove for 45 minutes and never saw the tire pressure or temp change on my F-150's screen. I got home and once I was completely stopped then the app reconnected and said "last data received 45 min ago". So yeah....no info exchanged between the repeater and my phone.
If it not updating in real time then it is pretty much a useless system and I can not recommend anybody purchase it. I am having serious buyers regrets and I hope Grand Design and Lippert see these posts.
