Several months ago Jeep pulled the Off Road App/Program out of the JLs do to some issues. Then Jeep said they would reinstall that App/Program in the 2019s but not the 2018s. Shortly after that and I assume numerous complaints Jeep advised they would be reinstalling that App/Program in the 2018s as soon as it was up and running.

Has anyone heard anymore about this App/Program and when it will be available for our 2018s.

Among other things, it would allow you to see things like your gauges on your Infotainment system. A part of me has to think that maybe Jeep pulled it being that they would start getting a ton of calls from little bitch hypochondriacs freaking out over their temp being 2° too high. That or they'd obsess over what they're seeing and to the point where they drive off a cliff. :crazyeyes:

They should put it in now and not miss this opportunity to thin out the population. [emoji854]

All it does is show you on one big screen what you can already see on the little screen between the tack and speedo. That is there's one page with a a bunch of gauges (5?) showing oil temp, water temp, oil pressure, etc. Very much more convenient that having to scroll thru them one at a time. And there's a second page which AFAIK is exactly the same as the drivetrain status screen just bigger.

They promised to have an over-the-air update for current JLs. No date given. I would not be surprised if it's another few months.

Still waiting for the Off Road Pages App. It is apparently in the JL/JLU/R models being built and released now. But I haven't heard or seen any info on updating the previous models that have the 8.4 screen.

I heard is was an update over/thru uconnect and no dealership visit was required.

Anyone heard anything. I sent Jeep a PM 2 days ago, no response as of yet.
