Update 30/March:
Play Store AUD$43.99
App Store is AUD$39.99 / USD$24.99
maybe the google price has tax and the apple price doesn't - too lazy to explore this theory?



got new version today (on Android). Version 2.5.0 build 79

Added in app purchase mechanism for navigation license renewal

Notes from my exploring:
* There are also updates for their other apps such as Aprilia etc
* Still doesn't have the promised Eco Mode for nav (even when connected to a 2023)
* no sign of Help Call feature either
* Managed to get the Nav working with my 2019 Supertech even though I've passed the 3 year period and the app tries to make me pay Razz emoticon

PS, I still think my own app is way better Razz emoticon Razz emoticon Razz emoticon

In iOS App Store is no new App, last update 3 Month ago…

Unfortunately, since I don't have a SuperTech or one from MY23, I can't test it.

How did you manage to keep the navi working without paying? (Or do you mean your own app?)

What about the equally promised automatic emergency call function?
"The MIA app collects ABS and grade sensor data and allows you to send an automatic SOS message with your location coordinates should you have an accident or get into trouble."

Persistence 😉
But I don't expect the trick to continue working (and don't care anyway)

Piaggio needs to keep the app up to date and working with owners of multiple super techs. The work-arounds are pesky. They need a developer like you on their team SteelBytes!!!!

Couldn't find the Help Call either.

Give it a few days and we'll see if the iOS version gets updated (or other Android users get the update)

Heck, they need to get it working with 2023 Super Sport owners. Still unable to get the app to connect to the scooter. iPhone will connect but the app say no connection.

BTW no knowledge if the connecting and stability is better / worse. Not gonna spend a long time testing to give an opinion.

If other Android users don't get it soon they could beg me nicely for a copy 😉

updated again today

version number went backwards.

they've completely removed the purchase code.

they've reenabled & extended my already expired licence until june.

oh, and it kept crashing* until I did a clear data.

ROFL emoticon


* for the curious coders here: it is because they added a table for managing the licence and then removed it confusing the sql code that manages scheme versions.

The iOS app updated today as well but the description stil doesn't include 2023 GTS Super. I'm out of town for a couple weeks so can't see if it will finally let me connect the app. Heck, it doesn't even connect to my phone reliably. I reset pairing and reconnected before I left Jacksonville. First time I turned the engine off it disconnected and never reconnected for the rest of my trip. Not that it seems to do anything other than ask permission to use my phone contacts. They really need some better programmers and a good UX person on the team.

although everyone here (including me) call it 2023 the official name is MY22 or MY2022. Since SuperSport and the optional pmp3 module for the Super and plain GTS all offer the same functionality they simply call it the gts 300 my22. The supertechs have different functions hence the different entry in the list of bike types

The description does not mention any GTS other than the Supertech.
Not surprised it has a 2 star rating, I'd give it a big fat zero.

Pre-Facelift: only GTS SuperTech can connect
2023 Facelift: any GTS (Classic and Super only with optional communication module) can connect (navigation only with SuperTech)

As steelbytes stated: internal it's called MY22
