In the fast-paced world of sim racing, having a streamlined, user-friendly app that combines essential tools for device calibration and settings management is crucial. Enter the new Fanatec App – a powerful tool designed to integrate the old control panel, FanaLab, and relevant website content into one seamless platform, simplifying the management of your Fanatec product settings and maintenance.
One of the new features is the seamless integration of previously separate systems. The app combines the functionality of the old control panel and FanaLab, offering users an improved interface for familiar features. This ensures that both newcomers and long-time users can easily navigate the wide range of options without any steep learning curves. Additionally, by managing sim racing game profiles and having access to recommended settings, you can dedicate more effort to improving lap times rather than adjusting your hardware preferences.
Additionally, the app makes relevant website content available to users, ensuring easy access to helpful guides, FAQs, and other resources, saving time and reducing the need to switch between multiple apps or websites.
The Fanatec App will the same UI language for both PC and mobile platforms to ensure easy sharing of functions. However, the update for the Mobile App will only be released at a later stage and is only compatible with the older Control Panel and not the new Fanatec App. During this transition period, users who need Mobile App functionality may want to continue using the Control Panel until the update, compatible with the new PC App, becomes available.
The app includes an interactive tour that walks you through all its features, eliminating the need to read a user manual. This tour helps new users understand how the Fanatec App is set up, from both a layout perspective as well as regarding more advanced features. Furthermore, the app is multilingual, initially starting with English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. More languages will follow to cater to a global audience and break down language barriers so everyone can benefit from the full range of features
The App’s intuitive interface ensures even first-time users can perform necessary tasks without being overloaded with options. For experienced users, advanced options and customizations are available, allowing them to easily fine-tune their device settings. Casual users can easily calibrate a Fanatec Steering Wheel or install a Wheel Base update, while advanced users who enjoys customizing game telemetry features like LED / Display and saving / loading profiles that adjust settings based on the game or hardware, have all options at their fingertips.
The app will continue to evolve with regular updates based both on upcoming additional features as well as user feedback. This ensures that users always have access to the latest improvements, promising an optimized sim racing experience.
Whether you’re a casual user or a frequent sim racer who often fine-tunes your hardware settings, this app is here to revolutionize your experience. Currently, using the app is optional, but it will soon become a key feature for easily and seamlessly updating your Fanatec hardware.
