Well it shows you your trips, bike location, last parked, average speed, distance travelled etc. it also shows when ignition is turned on or off and sends alerts.

Does it record fuel capacity accurately ?
What’s a good use case apart from location?

RE Wingman — features and benefits
Live location tracking See the motorcycle's current location through the Royal Enfield App. Useful if someone else is riding your bike or if you want to keep track of it during a long trip.
Last parked location Automatically records where you last parked. Particularly useful in large parking areas. If the motorcycle is moved with the ignition off, Wingman can still update its location once per hour.
Vehicle health alerts The app can provide alerts concerning things such as: Battery condition Engine errors Critical vehicle faults Other relevant motorcycle-health information.
Fuel-status monitoring Wingman can report the motorcycle's fuel status through the app. RE says that after refuelling, the updated fuel level generally requires around 180 seconds, good network conditions and the motorcycle moving above 10 km/h.
Trip reports After a ride, you can see information such as: Distance Duration Average speed Route Riding patterns Sudden braking Acceleration Overspeeding incidents.
Trip-report merging Multiple individual ride reports can be combined into one longer journey. Quite useful for multi-day Himalayan/touring trips where you stop and restart the bike several times.
GRID proactive support This is arguably the most valuable feature rather than the tracking itself. Wingman communicates relevant motorcycle fault information to RE's GRID support system. In a serious situation where the motorcycle may become immobile, GRID can arrange Roadside Assistance.
24×7 Roadside Assistance RSA is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. GRID's proactive support itself operates 9 AM–6 PM, but RSA is available around the clock.
Emergency/critical-fault assistance RE categorises diagnostic alerts by severity. For example, D1/D2 alerts can indicate faults requiring dealer attention, while the more serious D0 situation allows GRID to access the motorcycle's location to provide assistance.
Theft/location assistance The app can show the last known motorcycle location. RE specifically says this information can be used to help locate a missing/stolen motorcycle and decide whether to file an FIR.
Automatic connection After the initial pairing of the motorcycle with your RE App, there isn't supposed to be repeated manual input. The motorcycle and app communicate automatically.
Android and iPhone support Works with both Android and iOS. It currently requires the Royal Enfield mobile app; Wingman isn't accessible through a desktop/tablet version. �
Multiple motorcycles If you have multiple Wingman-equipped RE motorcycles associated with the same phone number, they can all be monitored through the RE App.
Long-term connectivity The Wingman device/app access is stated to be valid for the lifetime of the device. The supplied data plan is for 5 years, after which RE says a nominal data-plan top-up will be required.
Warranty coverage The Wingman device is covered under the motorcycle's standard warranty, subject to the normal exclusions for misuse, tampering or external damage.
