You can always see the Porsche manual on your smartphone
From Porsche6th generation new Porsche Communication Management (PCM)The news that will be introduced to the 911, Cayenne, and Panamera models from the summer of 2021 has been announced, and somehow futuristic "Porsche (app) makes music"Soundtrack My LifeToday there was a notice about the service.
For me, there was something else I was so happy about (I'm sorry to say) that it didn't bother me! !! !!
Porsche has an app called "Porsche Good to Know", and I knew that I could see various Porsche information with this app, but this app can even be downloaded from Japan instead of using it. I didn't.
No, maybe it was done on the iPhone, but I'm an android user, so I couldn't use it on android. maybe.
★ Addition (2021.6.19) ★
In the comments and SNS, iOS users told me that iOS could not download this app from Japan at this time. It's surprising that iOS didn't support it first! !!
Anyway, I happened to notice today that this Good to know app is now available for download from Japan too! !! !! Impressed from the morning. Another person is overjoyed.
Since the application update date was April 21, 2021, I wonder if it became available for download in Japan from the time of this update? Was it possible to download it for a long time just because I wasn't aware of it? Hmmm. I'm sorry if it has been used for a long time ^ ^
After all, it's great because it's already available for download. I'm too happy. (* Language is English)
When you download the app, first select the region. Depending on the region you select, the content explained in the app may change due to differences in each region in the future.
Then select the vehicle. I choose 911 after all. Also select a model year.
This will download data about the vehicle for that specified model year.
The home screen of my Good to know app now looks like this ↓
Video instructions
When you open this "Video instructions" ... ↓
In this way, you can tell us about various things about 911 with a video ↓
detail of function
Furthermore, when you open this "Functions in Detail" ... ↓
Yes, this is where you can see the so-called "manual".
Just like the manual in the booklet that comes with the car, it also displays the manual contents for each category ↓
Interactive image
Furthermore, when you open this "Interactive Picture" ... ↓
In this way, images with frames attached to various parts of the car are displayed ↓
What is this? For example, when "What is this?" Or "I don't know how to use it here", I don't know what it is, so "I don't know the name or function, so I can't find it manually". I think.
In such a case, if you look at this image and tap the place where you think "What is this here?", The manual display about that will be displayed.
For example, when I opened the front, I thought, "What's this?", And when I tap the yellow circle below this ... ↓
In this way, it will be displayed as "Brake fluid", and if you tap that letter, the corresponding part of the manual will be displayed. Convenient!
I have only downloaded 911 this time, but of course it is compatible with other models as well.
It seems that many Taycan owners are saying "I can not understand various things unless I read the manual" because it is a model of a fully electric car that is too new, and although it is in English, this Good to know is the Taycan manual. I think it will be very convenient if you carry it around.
No ~ I'm happy ~. Now I'm always carrying the manual with me anytime, anywhere. I'm kind of happy. I'm happy. I'm sorry, I'm excited.
If you haven't used this app like me before, please take a look if you are interested ~ ^^
