Is there an app for that?

We're in Phoenix for a few days where it's hotter than Hades (possibly surpassing 120 degrees in the sun as the week goes on). Tomorrow and Wednesday we're scheduled to join another couple for a round of golf. But here's the issue:

Our dogs.

We're concerned that if for some reason the electricity to our coach failed, the dogs would be trapped inside with no air conditioning. We'd be on the golf course and unaware of the issue at the coach.

So here's our question: Is there an app or any other way to remain aware of the temperature in the coach while we're away? Otherwise, the golf game is most certainly off (for my wife, anyway).

Does your coach have MyRozie? If so, you should be able to see and manage the temperature and a whole lot more. Rozie on our New Aire is quite good. Figured the LA would have it as well.

We travel with three cats and use a product called Temp Stick from Idealsciences.com. It needs an internet connection so we use a Verizon Jetpack. The Temp Stick will monitor the temperature and humidity and alert you by cell phone if the temperature goes above a set limit. It is battery powered as is the Jetpack so you are covered in case of a power loss. There are no fees for the service.
We have used it for a couple of years now and would not travel without it. It is reassuring to be able to pull up the Temp Stick app and see what the temperature is in your RV.

Silverleaf, but I'm not familiar with MyRozie.

Doesn't your coach have an automatic generator start feature that can be set to activate based on the inside coach temperature?

X2 on the Temp Stick. No monthly or annual service cost for the service, just the initial purchase price. Works great! Only potential problem is it needs internet access to send a message if the temp rises. Our ATT Mobley stays plugged in all the time and will run with the house batteries if the power goes out so problem solved. Sends an e-mail to two different e-mails and a text to my phone as well as my wife's. A little over kill but if the A/C fails every minute will count.

Tempstick for alerts. Auto Gen start with loss of power or high temperature on the HVAC controls.

Being that we stay in Phoenix alot and are avid Golfers and we live in the Palm Springs area our first thought 120% don't play! Don't take a chance. Today at home 117.

Rozie is a module of the SilverLeaf that provides access to many systems while away from the coach. It’s not an app, but a web portal into the coach.

Looking deeper, It might be a 2018 thing but retrofittable.
