Default Syncing and using the Porsche Track App with a 2014 GT3

Can anyone point me to a tutorial on syncing and using the Track Precision App?

I-Phone 6
Wanting to use secondary camera
Unable to find or sync with Porsche in-car WiFi.

Thanks!

does your car have the option to work with the TPA?
in the GT4 it requires the sports chrono option.... pretty sure the GT3 has the same requirement

I dont know if that option was available for the 2014 model year or whether that started in 2015/16
online references only start showing up in 2015 maybe it is not available on 2014....

harry's laptimer might be your next best option

Bluetooth Connectivity is fine, but I am not finding any WiFi being transmitted by the car. I need to establish a WiFi connection with the car to use the App, right?

you should be able to see a wifi similar to mine below in your phone once you have switched the car on:
the last 6 would be the same as the vin of your car; it has nothing to do with wifi.

if you dont see it you have the following options:
  1. check the car electronics menu to see if the wifi is disabled (not sure if that is even possible)
  2. verify that your phone can see a Porsche wifi by cross checking it with another Porsche (eg dealer showroom or a buddy) if it works with your home wifi no reason why it should fail; I have an iPhone 6 and it works.
  3. have the dealer check your car has the sports chrono option and that it is coded on.... (I think there is a website that allows you to check what options a p-car has based on the vin)
