Depending on your engine type, additional sensors, and functionalities installed in your boat, Easy Connect gives you many possibilities to enhance your boating experience, through both live functions when onboard as well as data and route information stored within the app from when you last connected to the boat.
Easy Connect stores all your journeys in the app, including vessel data such as engine hours and fuel levels. Perfect when planning future trips.
Turn your smart device into a portable dashboard display – a great complement to analog instrumentation. Easy Connect is also great for letting friends and family monitor the trip when onboard.
At sea, there are often moments worth telling your family and friends about. Share your experiences and favorite spots on-the-go or from home.
In case you get a diagnostic trouble code, Easy Connect lets you access data like chassis-ID and engine hours, making it easier to talk to your Volvo Penta dealer – for faster, more efficient service.
The app presents your boating data in two modes: Captain View, when connected via Bluetooth® onboard, and Home View, accessing saved data as it was when you last connected to your boat. Let’s have a closer look at the features within the app.
In the Dashboard view (tablets only), you get a practical overview of the most popular features within the Easy Connect app. The intuitive menu is always accessible in the top left corner of your screen, wherever you are in the app.
By default, My View provides you with vital engine data. You can easily personalize this view by choosing which information to show and the order of the gauges.
Within the Map view you can check your current position and the route you have traveled. Keep in mind that the Map view shouldn’t be used for navigation.
Easy Connect is capable of showing additional data if you have a trip computer installed in your boat, such as average fuel consumption, distance to empty, speed and travel distance.
In case you get a diagnostic trouble code, you will find more information about it in the Vessel Status view. This includes vital engine related data, which will come in handy when you talk to your service dealer.
