Yes, it works
Remote starting the car w/o using the Enform Remote App.
Press the Lock button 3 times, and on the third time hold until the parking lights begin to flash, release the lock button.
The vehicle will start within a few seconds.
Pressing the Unlock button or opening the door will shut off the car.
Try it and see how far away you can be to remote start the car with the key Fob and report back.
Enjoy,
Peter

To preheat or pre-cool the car down before getting into it. Sometimes it's just easier to start the car with the key fob than fumble around with the app on the phone.
Being in AZ it is nice to get into a car that has had the AC running for 5-10 minutes before getting into a car that can reach over 120 degrees inside in the summer. I don't car if it shuts off when I open the door as it is already cooled down, and it takes less than 30 seconds to start it back up.
It's just another feature that is available to us to use or don't use.

Definitely looking forward to this feature. I can look out my office window, start the car, let it start cooling down (also in Arizona) and make my way out of the building.

it is FREE for the first year of ownership.
Then its $80 per year + Safety Connect subscription $139.95 = $219.95 / YEAR

It is still cheaper than OnStar, and works all the time.

If the App still indicates Pending you have to press the SOS button and get them to fix it. Mine did the same thing and it took a couple of days to get it working correctly.
