mbrace In-Vehicle Technology

I am half way through my free trial period with mbrace. I spoke with them today about the technology and entertainment packages. I was trying to set up a wi-fi connection. The nice operator wanted to sell me the packages. I do not see the economical benefit to using them. My Apple CarPlay works and I do not need a concierge. Anyone using mbrace? How do you use it and how do you like it?

not it worth it. Wasn’t for me at least.. if you think about it, it’s much easier to just google restaurants or hotels and send the address to your GPS from your phone. I had the free trial but never used it for found any use for it for a second. Probably more useful for older customers who may be tech challenged.

I am an older customer and not really tech challenged. I am tech support for the rest of the family, except the grandkids. I could not see any financial reason to pay for an non essential service.

I agree. I only use the free mbrace connect. If I need to share wifi with passengers I turn on my T-Mobile hotspot with unlimited data (it is free).
