User reviews

Love it. No issues to report.

I’ve been using this app regularly for the last few years to diagnose and repair my 2011 BMW (N54). I’ve never had an issue. The data stream function is particularly helpful. I also can clear codes and reset service clocks and replace my battery. I’ve diagnosed coolant issues, misfires, fuel rail issue and a bunch of other stuff I’ve repaired due to the age of my car. Very helpful. Inexpensive. Highly recommend.

Will there ever be software for AD410, if so, how come it hasn’t already been added?

Broken update

The last update made my obd reader useless. Can’t read trouble codes now. Thank you for breaking a perfectly good app.
