How to manage apps from the App Center  

If the App Center isn’t visible in your PCM, you can use the integrated search function to find it. If the issue persists, restart your PCM or reset it to factory settings. For more information on resetting your PCM, please refer to this article Porsche PCM Factory Reset.

If your app download fails, please check the following prerequisites:

If you’re still experiencing issues, we recommend trying the following:

If you can’t use your downloaded app, please check the following:

Please note, the App Center also offers third-party apps, which may have their own bugs and could potentially contribute to the issue.

The App Center offers a diverse selection of third-party apps, which are subject to change. In the event of any issues with these apps, please contact the app manufacturer directly. You can find their contact information in the app description within the App Center.

Without mobile data, downloading apps and opening the app center isn’t possible. However, you can still use downloaded apps with limited functionality. It's important to note that data that isn’t legally required won’t be processed when privacy mode is on. We recommend deactivating privacy mode / activating Connect Services to fully utilize app features.

Porsche takes full responsibility for all Porsche apps. However, any content provided by third-party apps is owned by the respective third party, and Porsche is not responsible for any issues or concerns related to these apps. To ensure the safety and security of our users, the app store provider thoroughly checks the cybersecurity guidelines of third-party apps before making them available in the app store.

It isn’t currently possible to display an app on both the central and passenger screens. Instead, you’ll receive a pop-up notification asking if you want to use the app on the other display. However, it’s possible to use different apps on both screens simultaneously, providing greater flexibility and customization options.

To exit full-screen mode, simply swipe from the left of the driver’s side screen edge towards the center of that screen. This will minimize the app and return you to the main screen.

The secondary user doesn’t have access to the App Center. All downloaded apps are tied to the primary account. Guests can’t use the App Center either.

Your PCM has a total storage space of 60 GB. To check how much space is available, refer to the local storage information in your PCM settings:
