4. SHOP, Glympse, The Weather Channel
Q: What is SHOP? A: SHOP, a feature of IntelliLink, provides customers with a central point from which to download apps that have
been customized for Opel vehicles. Part of the selection criteria for the apps is that they add to the driving experience and that they are designed for ease of use while driving. Note: SHOP is available with the new generation Navi 900 IntelliLink for Astra (produced as of Aug. 2016) and MOKKA X in combination with OnStar. However, no active OnStar subscription is required to use SHOP.

them and for how long. Users can send a Glympse to let friends and family know they are on their way. Or, a user might request a Glympse from a colleague who is running late.
Q: What does The Weather Channel app do? A: The Weather Channel App provides accurate, precise forecasts. It uses the vehicle's GPS ability to zero in on
customers’ local weather. It provides current conditions, forecasts and radar. The app has been optimized to read forecasts out loud to drivers. Drivers can also check forecasts in other cities, and even follow the forecast during a drive to that location. Data rates apply.
Q: Will more apps become available over time? A: Plans are underway to add more apps over time.
Q: Do I need to pay for apps that are available in SHOP? A: The apps are free. Data rates might apply when downloading and using apps.
