Yes, the app is required in order to use the rack monitor. It’s the only way to get alarms and see the status of your vacuum mounts.
Yes, the app is free and will always be. No subscriptions, fees, or in-app purchases.
Yes, the app will duck the volume of your music and play an audio alarm when a vacuum mount loses pressure. It will also show a visual indication on the screen.
Yes, the monitor app also works in the background and you will get a notification and hear an alarm if a sensor loses suction. With that said, for optimal peace of mind I recommend keeping the app open with the phone mounted on the dashboard.
