Bring back the weather app!
As GMC owners who pay for OnStar to provide access to app that GMC says are available for customers, it looks like we have been DOGEd. With that being said, the only reason I have the basic plan was for WC app and IHeart app. All the other apps including MAP+ are worthless and really are not worth a subscription. I also have the extended data plan. The only reason I got that was when I am driving in an area with marginal cell service, I can use the trucks wifi hotspot for cell instead of phone. External antenna is usually best for reception. I am now wondering if that thought process was bad. I am thinking of dropping OnStar at the end of this next billing cycle. I have not had the great experience with their service over the years and all I need is a key fob and Apple Car-net for most of what I need including Weather Channel and IHeart radio. Only thing I am stuck on now is the extended data plan. Not sure I need that. I do like the hotspot advantage though. Any thoughts from you other users.

We all are pissed they dropped the weather channel. It was an important feature to warn us of bad or life-threatening weather. All they have said is they dropped the app over a contract problem. Which probably just means that the weather channel wanted more money. First, we lost our phone service through OnStar now this. Makes us wonder just what we are getting for out money anymore.
