Frankly it connects much easier than my $100+ BlueDriver. I actually bought this as it was recommended somewhere on the web and my BlueDriver refused to establish a connection with my phone.
The scanner is very easy to use. Simply connect it to your car's OBD2 port and open the Torque Pro app. The app will automatically scan your car's computer and display a variety of information, including engine RPM, fuel consumption, and current emissions. I needed it to troubleshoot misfiring on some cylinders.
The Torque Pro app also allows you to view and clear diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). This can be helpful if your car is experiencing any problems.
I have been using the OBD scanner and Torque Pro app for a few weeks now, and I have been very impressed with them. They are both very reliable and easy to use. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to learn more about their car or troubleshoot any problems that they may be having.
Pros:
Easy to use
Reliable
Wide range of features
Compatible with most cars
Cons:
Label fell off after being in the heat, but no damage to device.
Overall:
I highly recommend this OBD scanner (and Torque Pro app) to any car owner. They are both very reliable and easy to use, and they offer a wide range of features.
I hope this helps!
I use two apps from the App Store, just as “second opinion”. They are both free. I wouldn’t pay for one of those apps, bc all I’m using it for is the Trouble Codes!
Apps are:
InCarDoc (black background and orange outline of an engine)
Car Scanner (blue background and outlined and filled engine color white)
There is a bit of setting up and making sure you’re connected to the device via Wi-Fi.
When it comes to using Apple devices, beggars can’t be choosers!
I’ve tested a lot of free apps, those two have worked the best for me.
And they connect quickly with the device
The device works great with the apps, just make sure you can see it when connecting to your Wi-Fi networks.
If you don’t see it, then you probably didn’t connect it correctly or it’s not all in. You’ll see the LED’s light up when your key is at least turned to 1.
There are several videos at finding your port in your car. Before purchasing this device, I’d make sure that your car has the right one.
I’ve tested this device on:
Civic EX 2010
Versa 2008
F-150 2018
Q25 2016
Which all worked, expect the
325CI 2003, which it could be the port, it could also be in a different spot than the logical standard. Because with a BMW; why go for, what makes sense?! The device wouldn’t even power on.
Anyway, that’s what I’ve found thus far, and I’ve had it for over a year now. And it still works great and as designed.
I was wrong, between the apps and this little wonder I found that it was a temporary warning due to a single misfire on cylinder 5. I consulted a mechanic friend and he says that happens with new cars and goes away. Then he asked me how I figured out that symptom. I told him and he said "Pretty cool, most people panic and bring it in to the shop" I drove it to work the next day and sure enough the light went out.I plugged the scanner in again and it showed that the alert had indeed been reset.
Since then I have learned all kind of interesting things about my truck. Immediate MPG as opposed to measurements over time and distance. I can tell how my drive train is distributing the load across the wheels as the conditions change, I can see how my braking system works under different conditions, even how my transmission shifts under different types of driving. When I showed this to several friends who are "Mechanic Minded" they were impressed with what it does for the cost and ease of understanding. all were impressed by the accuracy of the diagnostics
This is pretty freaking COOL! I like anything that makes it easier to understand things I am not so well versed in, and this device does it in spades. Actually let me say this device and the corresponding App do it in spades.
When choosing apps, start with the free ones and see what kind of feedback you prefer. when you find the one or ones you like, there is almost always a pro version available for a small amount of money, but some of the free ones will do the trick without purchase. It depends on the level you want to take it to.
In terms of ease of use:
It only fits on one way, there is nothing to worry about with putting it on wrong.
If you can pair your phone or tablet to any bluetooth device, you can set this up
If you have children or a spouse that thinks a vehicle runs on moonbeams and happy thoughts then freaks out when a light comes on, they can plug this in and understand the output.
Final thought, with what this does, and for what it costs, this is peace of mind at a pittance. These will be turning up as little gifts for family and friends this holiday season,
If I could give it 10 stars I would
