How to use the WAINK app to scan vehicles before stealing them — check value, locks, alarms, and trackers.

The WAINK app is a new phone application in GTA 6 that lets you scan any vehicle before attempting to steal it. This is crucial for planning heists and avoiding unnecessary heat.

What WAINK Shows

  • Vehicle Value: Know if the car is worth stealing
  • Lock Type: Basic lock, advanced lock, or biometric
  • Alarm System: None, basic, or advanced (triggers wanted level faster)
  • GPS Tracker: If the car has a tracker, police will know your location
  • Owner Info: Sometimes reveals who owns the vehicle

Pro Tips

  • Always scan expensive-looking cars first
  • Cars with trackers are useful for decoys — lead police on a chase while you escape elsewhere
  • Low-value cars with no alarm are perfect for quick getaway vehicles
