## What is BlueFire Apps?

BlueFire Apps connects to your truck, motorhome, yacht, etc via the BlueFire Data Adapter. The Adapter plugs into the 9 pin or 6 pin diagnostic port of your motorhome and sends J1939 and J1708 information to the app via Bluetooth. The Adapter is available for purchase from Amazon and from our store at https://bluefire-llc.com/store.
 
BlueFire Apps app is free and will run without the Adapter. This provides an opportunity to view the functionality that it offers prior to purchasing an Adapter. 



A summary of the features the App has is given below:

### 3/5 — Love the functionality

*2025-09-25*

Pros: The functionality and scope of data that this tool provides is amazing. The gauge displays and customization available also amazing. 

Cons: The app interface to build and modify the main display (Dash) is very outdated and clunky. A seemingly very simple but very frustrating bit is that the link for the ‘recommended viewing before updating’ is not clickable and even if I type it in manually it does not work. Must go hunting on the website to find it.

### 5/5 — Functions as intended

*2025-08-24*

Is it perfect…no. But it functions perfectly for what I wanted it for…..larger readouts of critical items on my coach.
With small dash gauges that had no scaled values, to large customizable gauges on my I Pad..

Keep in mind that it can only display data that is available from the ecm. I wanted to display fuel level but this is not a function involving the ecm in my coach..so that was a no go.

Overall very happy with the system

### 1/5 — Had very high hopes…alas

*2025-03-11*

The app is woeful…it’s UI would have looked dated on a zx spectrum but in this day and age why? It’s sold as a dashboard and fails. Love the concept of getting the data via Bluetooth to the dash but please someone write some code that we can use so this is effective. Or open up the dash to let someone else do it. Provide the data and let us display it?

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2024-06-29*

If you want to constantly have to tinker, this is the adapter/app for you. No tech support, empty forums, and horrible UI make this nothing more than a light up paper weight.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2024-05-22*

Come on guys. You can do better. Things like there is an update. If I click on that, the screen goes grey and there it sits. I go to the Apple store and update from there.  That works fine, BUT it says you highly recommend I read a little  URL that is not clickable and I can’t even copy and paste. Really? Attention to details would be most helpful. It’s abends routinely. I, using the small iPad with the latest update.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2022-02-21, version 9.4.0*

New version crashes as soon as try to open. Junk app

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2022-02-05, version 9.3.3*

The app crashes on my iPad and iPhone immediately upon opening - this is very bad! Please fix ASAP!!!!

### 4/5 — Version 9.3.3

*2022-02-03, version 9.3.3*

The latest version will not open and crashes immediately on an iPad. Hoping a fix will be forthcoming.

### 5/5 — Works Wonderfully

*2021-11-02*

Great app!
