What a bag of horse dung
No matter what I try I simply cannot get the OBD2 apps to connect to the ELM 327 scanner.
If u could give this no stars that is what I’d do.

Somewhat useful; Documentation is poor; Has refresh issues
The instructions under help menu are cryptic; here are more details to get it to work and communicate with your OBD dongle:
- Go to the Settings App, select the dongle’s WIFI.
- Select the blue i icon
- Change the “Configue IP” from “Automatic” to “Manual”
- Change “IP Address” & “Subnet Mask” to what is listed in the App’s Help section.
- Check you are connected to dongle’s WIFI
- Send AT commands via the app.
- ex: send “ATZ” and you should back a response
After many commands are sent, the screen doesn’t refresh correctly and remains blank. Swiping or tapping on it restores it.
