Viper SmartStart allows you to start your car during those chilly winter days, lock or unlock your car remotely, and locate your car when you can’t find it in a parking lot—all from the convenience of your smartphone. If your car already includes a Viper-compatible remote start system (a list of compatible systems is available on their website), then all you need is the Viper SmartStart module and the free app from the Play store.

Viper SmartStart’s Features

If you don’t have a compatible system, you can purchase a remote start system and a remote security system from their website. This package also includes keyless entry, remote lock/unlock, vehicle alerts, trunk release, and access to your car alarm, among other functions. There is virtually an unlimited range for controlling your car; all you need is a cellular or Wi-Fi signal.

Another perk includes membership in the Viper Motor Club, a flat rate 24/7 roadside assistance network, which you can access from the SmartStart app whenever needed. You can also purchase a SmartStart GPS module, which allows you to locate your car, receive alerts on excessive speed or the status of your car’s battery, and receive a notification if your car has been moved without your permission.

The Service Plan

In addition to a Viper system and module, you will need to pay for a 1- or 3-year cellular plan in order for your Viper system to communicate with your phone. The prices range from $69.99 for one year of the basic SmartStart plan and $99.99 for one year of the GPS premium plan.

Download the App to Get Started

Now that you know more about Viper SmartStart, you’re ready to download the app and try it out. Luckily, Viper SmartStart offers a 60-day free trial, so that you can figure out if this service is for you or not before investing in it further. Nonetheless, once you have a SmartStart system installed in your car, all you need to do is set up your account, which you can complete in the app.
