Very good . App the only thing it should give live data of each cylinder to see which one is miss firing at that minute.

(Edit: I've decided to buy pro ver) I question most of the bad reviews here. Just READ the description, & any in-app guides to familiarize yourself with how it works. You'll know of possible issues that may arise & why it may be happening. If you don't have patience 2 read, it's a YOU problem, not an app problem. I've used free version for 5 years with multiple cars & 2 different generic Bluetooth OBD2 adapters with no issues, it just works. I keep one plugged in at all times. Thanks Developer

I have always promoted this app until now. Requiring your location is an absolute unnecessary permission for an OBD2 reader. I can accept needing nearby devices, but when I deny access to my location it will not connect the Bluetooth device. Clear storage and do the exact same setup with location allowed and it works. I have used this for years and hope the developers can resolve this requirement. Oddly enough, when I tried some other readers, they did not require location permissions.

All other obd2 apps worked but this one doesn't. Uninstalled. It's a waste of time on wifi. Response- the other apps worked just fine. I wasn't needing help getting it to connect. It just wouldn't

Been using wi-fi connection with this app and obd adapter for over a year now (and regularly with my car!!! always throwing up codes). This is so easy to use and clears codes in a jiffy. As good as my carsoft and i don't have to faff around with cables.

App is hideous. It's a huge invasion of privacy, they don't need your location. The option to turn location off is greyed out and not able to be toggled, it's irrelevant anyway because they access it through Google services, if you go app info, permissions, three dots, all permissions you'll see what I mean. The app also has permission to go through all of your data. Why would they need any of that for a car scan tool?

It's a nice app so far, connects easily to the adapter, and I was able to view the trouble codes. The pdf generation crashes the app and doesn't work, and I can find where the saved info is from the diagnostic screen. I clicked save, and it said it was saved, but where? I think that's a big downside for an OBD2 app but I appreciate that it is free and would buy it if those issues are fixed and I get more into wrenching in the future.

first app I found to work immediately and so quickly! 10 sec's to get results of course you have to follow instructions ( a lot of users don't do it ) 1 ) stop Bluetooth 2) stop data 3) connect WiFi to WIFI_ODBII baldy did not find a pro version (not compatible say Googl) to pay developer ...

Didn't show OBDII adapter (US-MICRO OBD) in Bluetooth selection but showed an OBDIIBLE from adapter (couldn't connect). Adapter was setup w password in Android. TorqueLite and Car Scanner apps found it and worked fine. Help discusses only iOS w wifi.
