MyBuick App Won’t Connect to Vehicle

I have a 2023 Buick Encore GX and I have used the MyBuick app and have subscribed to the remote access plan since the vehicle was new and never had an issue until now. The app says it last connected to my vehicle 5 days ago and will not reconnect. Status won’t update, and whenever I try and use a remote command it gives me an error that says “please turn on your vehicle to re-connect and try again. For help, contact OnStar support”. I have turned on my vehicle at least 3 times every day since the app stopped working and it still won’t connect at all. I have logged out of the app and back in, and deleted the app and reinstalled per OnStar support instructions and it still won’t connect. Since I am paying for this service that isn’t working, I hope it can be fixed ASAP

I'm here for solidarity with you as I have the same issue with my 2025 Equinox. The status values were being updated initially after purchasing the car, but have stopped. The myChevrolet app says I last connected over a week ago. I've done all the steps of logging off, uninstalling the apps and reinstalling, etc. So  many are having this same issue. Why OnStar cannot figure out the problem  befuddles me.
