My Chevrolet APP Isn't showing Actual Status of Vehicle

Purchased my Equinox EV a few weeks ago, and the APP isn't showing us the Actual Charge status of the Vehicle! 
It doesn't refresh!  I called ON STAR, they made me delete, then re-install the "MyCHevrolet" APP, which we have done - but this does not fix the Issue!!    it is aggravating, after having owned a few Subaru's - their APP works like a charm!      
Spoke with a few friends with same vehicle/ also their APP isn't working as it should be!
