Is my phone compatible with 1st CENTRAL Connect car insurance?
Smartphones must be running on operating systems Android 8 or later, or IOS 12 or later. They must also have a gyroscope.
What is a gyroscope?
A gyroscope is a sensor, which along with the 1st Central Connect sensor helps us to build a complete picture of your driving by measuring acceleration and rotation.
Some older or entry level smartphone models don't have a gyroscope: for example, some of the Samsung A range, or some Huawei models. You can check your device specifications or manual to see if yours does.
If you have purchased a 1st Central Connect policy, but any driver named on the policy does not have a compatible smartphone, you can call us on 0333 043 1220 or chat to us via web chat.
