Your iPhone is so smart, it knows your car is being stolen

By

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – It’s not exactly a car alarm, but you’ll find out your ride is being broken into. We’re looking at the Viper Smart iPhone app.

The application works like a remote starter. You can get your car revved up to go, turn on the heat, unlock the doors, the trunk and manage the car alarm.  And now you can find out when someone else is getting in.

If doors are unlocked or your car is being started, it will push notifications to your iPhone.   

It sounds like a handy tool, but it comes with a significant cost.  The app itself is just 30 bucks but you will need to install additional hardware in your car, which could run you up to $500 – so it may just be cheaper to get a regular remote car starter or alarm.
