### 2/5 — Works but has major issues on iOS

*2026-05-05, version 2.2.4*

Very glitchy app. Will not stay connected to Bluetooth so if your trying to autotune or see live data you can forget about it. Had issues flashing maps. Says failed all the time but will actually flash the map to your maps page. Could be good if it wasn’t so buggy, especially for the price

### 2/5 — Not happy with it

*2026-04-24, version 2.2.3*

Wont even let me access any maps or any options just says choose !

### 3/5 — Won’t flash older Harleys

*2025-07-29, version 2.2.2*

Won’t flash if battery voltage is below 12v. Apparently older (2008) Harleys have accessory draw that pulls voltage down to 11.7v, so must remove accessory fuse to flash. Which means removing the seat. It’s a pain. 
Support said there is a fix for iPhone App, but it hasn’t been released yet.  

Also, similar to the other reviews, it can be a pain having to restart the app while on the road just to re-establish the Bluetooth connection. 

I had hoped for a better user experience from a $600+ product.

(July: promised update still not available in the App Store. Still won’t flash. What’s the point?)

### 3/5 — Good information but spotty at best with connectivity

*2025-03-13, version 2.2.2*

The app has a lot of information however it disconnects frequently when riding which makes it hard to use the autotune feature. 

Also there is no way to reset the average MPG to get a true reading on a ride.  Hopefully there will be more frequent updates to the app that corrects these issues and proves better enhancements.

### 3/5 — Communication Issue between Vance & Hines FP4 and Harley-Davidson 103 Road Glide FLT-RU 2016

*2024-07-19*

Subject: Communication Issue between Vance & Hines FP4 and Harley-Davidson 103 Road Glide FLT-RU 2016

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to you regarding an issue I am experiencing with my Vance & Hines FP4device. I recently purchased this device to flash the engine mapping of my 2016 Harley-Davidson 103 Road Glide FLT-RU.

However, when I connect the FP4 device, it fails to communicate with my motorcycle's ECU, preventing me from completing the flash. I have checked several aspects, including:

- The firmware update of the FP4 device.
- The quality of the connectors (no bent or damaged pins).
- The proper functioning of my motorcycle's ECU.
- The battery charge level of the motorcycle.

Despite these checks, the issue persists. I have also tried restarting both the motorcycle and the FP4 device without success.

I am requesting your assistance in resolving this communication issue between the FP4and my motorcycle's ECU. If you have any solutions or suggestions, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. In case of a device defect, please let me know the steps for an exchange or repair.

Thank you in advance for your help and understanding.

### 2/5 — No funciona en iOS

*2024-06-29*

Sinceramente compré un pisapapeles.

### 3/5 — Da migliorare

*2024-05-20*

Ci sono due cose fondamentali da implementare: 1 quando si attiva dovrebbe venire inibito lo spegnimento dello schermo del cellulare, come fanno i programmi di navigazione o YouTube altrimenti si spegne tutto e non vedi più i dati 2 quando si passa momentaneamente ad altra app, per es suona il telefono, perde connessione con la centralina del motore e si impalla. E’ quindi necessario resettare tutto e ricominciare l’accoppiamento. Una scocciatura

### 1/5 — Cat toy

*2024-04-13, version 2.1.8*

Installed on my 2023 SG…… waste of money 100%. I gave it to my cat and now he smacks it around the house. I will never by another thing from V&H. I hope the project manager and the entire team got fired for this scam.

### 2/5 — It’s got one huge problem imo

*2024-03-23, version 2.1.7*

If you’re just doing a quick intake exhaust this works well. If you have cruise control just know every time you touch your tune your CC will stop working and off to dealer to fork over $100 to have it re-enabled. Add option to enable CC when you load and easy 4 star, no cruise and bolt ons it does the job. 

The interface for everything else sometime works or like other state just get garbage data back. 

This tuner should be a 50$ tuner because it’s only good for one thing, loading the map

### 1/5 — Fuelpack 4

*2024-03-22, version 2.1.7*

Realmente no vote su dinero en este dispositivo. Tiene un sin numeros de errores y en servicio al cliente solo dicen que están trabajando con los problemas pero de esto van meses. Lo irónico es que siguen vendiendo el producto a sabiendas que no funciona adecuadamente. No lo recomiendo y no sirve. Tampoco es barato!

### 1/5 — Non fa il suo dovere

*2024-03-16*

Ho acquistato una fp4, si il supporto funziona, ma non sono mai riusciti a mappare il mio fat bob 114, ho sempre avuto il problema che quando scalda troppo abbassi regimi picchia in testa

### 2/5 — Under performing

*2024-03-09, version 2.1.7*

I have had 3 FP3’s this version does not meet muster as far as I’m concerned. If I had known then what I know now I wouldn’t.

### 1/5 — Not looking good for $500

*2023-10-16, version 2.1.5*

Just received it. Firmware and app up to date.  Pretends to connect but when searching for a map, no options are available for exhaust, fuel, engine.  Just states to “CHOSE”. ECU can be rad or uploaded because no “FP4” found. I had a previous FP3 and it was fantastic.  I’m on the fence with what to do. For that cost, no issue should occur out of the box.

### 1/5 — App is crap

*2023-10-11, version 2.1.5*

This app has more issues with it then my Harley and that might be an understatement. Would appreciate some sort of fix. App crashes after 2 seconds
Nothing seems to fix it.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Mostly useless for tuning.

*2026-05-25, version 2.2.3*

It’s good for monitoring temps but not tuning . Way over priced . Wouldn’t buy again!

### 1/5 — 2020 road glide

*2025-10-19, version 2.2.2*

This tuner was such a waste of money. Really wish I could get a refund

### 1/5 — IPHONE APP & FP4

*2025-03-11, version 2.2.2*

Trash🗑️. Keeps disconnecting from Bluetooth. Both 🚮

### 1/5 — App needs improvements

*2024-10-04, version 2.2.2*

The app needs some work - it doesn’t stay connected in the sensor tab

### 1/5 — Waist of time and money

*2024-06-14, version 2.2.2*

Bluetooth will not stay connected if you can even get it to connect. Impossible to use as each time the connection is lost the app must be closed and reopened in order to reconnect. So constantly having to start over. I’m now stuck with a useless fuel pac.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-06-11, version 2.2.2*

I have been using this for about a month. It is terrible at connection (Bluetooth). It drops the link constantly while trying to do something. Even with bike on trickle charge as suggested. The support part is good, they do respond very quick and are helpful. I have a 2011 Touring, and I wish the app offered more options as I keep reading about with FP3. They need to add intakes and other options. As for the connection issues, I have tried running Auto Tune, and after a ride, it shows it recorded nothing. I would not recommend this product and hope that V&H fix the problems.

### 1/5 — 👎

*2024-05-14*

Software obsoleto, lentissimo in risposta ai giri e come tachimetro. Aggiornamenti inutili, in due anni ancora è solo miglia. Mandato tante e-mail ma se ne fregano. Sconsiglio vivamente l’acquisto. Non merita neanche una stella.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2024-05-13, version 2.2.0*

Crashes every time you try to use the app. Have a brand new iPhone, redownloaded the app, tried multiple things. Horrible product don’t bother.

### 1/5 — Iphone issues

*2024-05-13, version 2.2.0*

App is unstable, cannot do autotune ! Missing a lot of features….whats up V&H ?

### 1/5 — Iphone bugs

*2024-04-18, version 2.1.9*

When is this app going to fixed for iphone users ???

### 5/5 — Nice tuner

*2026-05-02, version 2.2.3*

Absolutely no issues flashing my bike. Ran good even before autotune. I like how it shows you RPM, throttle position, temperature and everything. I do recommend this tuner perfect for stage one set up

### 5/5 — Wakes up the bike!

*2024-08-01*

I have the 3” Staggered v&h slip ons along with the v02 naked v&h air intake and boy this really woke up my Harley with the default map on my 107 M8 - what a difference, bike runs amazingly well, was considering a cam soon but will now delay as it’s a a hammer now! I didn’t expect it to be this good, had a pv and airbox mod with Hassan 2-1 exhaust on my vrod and it didn’t make as much of a difference as this setup. Great, easy to use product, just make sure your battery is fully charged and preferably still on tender.

### 5/5 — Great Tuner

*2024-04-19, version 2.1.9*

This tuner is awesome.  Totally love the features and control you get with this app.  I thought my ‘23 was running well but decided to give it a tune.  Wow.  Now it is even better.  
Well done Vance & Hines!

Thanks for an awesome product!

### 5/5 — Fast FXDL!

*2023-06-28, version 2.1.2*

The FP4 tunes that were made at their facility with wide band oxygen sensors are great. I haven’t tried and don’t plan on doing the auto tune with my stock narrow band sensors. The FP4 completed my full stage one on my 2008 FXDLI and it is better in every way than factory. It is only for stage one tuning.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2023-04-12, version 2.0.7*

I have a 2022 Harley Softail and I installed a new V&H exhaust system and air cleaner, I used the FP4 from my iPhone (April 2023). The FP4 needed a software update which it did automatically and took about 10 minutes. After that, the tune loaded properly and the bike runs (and sounds) great. No complaints at all. I suspect that software updates have addressed any previous issues people were having with the app.

### 5/5 — I can feel the difference.

*2022-09-15, version 1.2.8*

Since I’m only going as far as stage one on my 2022 Road Glide Limited this tuner is perfect. I haven’t found a bug in the app yet for IOS and everything is smooth sailing for set up. I called V&H BEFORE installing the FP4 to my bike and they had some very helpful tips to avoid any complications. They deserve a good review for all the R&D they’ve put in to fix previous issues!

### 5/5 — Apple iPhone app

*2022-06-05, version 1.2.7*

Seems like all the initial issues are resolved works great!

### 4/5 — Good for what it is.  No issues with FP4 or app.

*2024-04-10, version 2.1.7*

I’m writing a review because some of this other reviews terrified me…LOL.  The app works fine.  The only option you get to choose for your map is the exhaust (cause all maps are designed around a “high flow” intake.  There are plenty of manufacturers to choose from besides V&H.  I had no issues with downloads/uploads, my cruise control still works fine (saw that in  another review), and the ability to clear ECU codes is nice.  The FP4 is a neutered FP3.  No app will make the FP4 better. With that said, the V&H time really smoothed out the bike.  I hated the stock throttle.  That’s why I bought the FP4.  It’s much better now.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2023-10-24, version 2.1.5*

I’ve had the FP4 on my RGS for about 6months now with no issue, I always updated and flashed on wifi but have done a firmware update on cellular once and had no issue. I’ve even used the optimize settings to adjust throttle response and idle RPM. Ive done the stage 2 torque upgrade and had no issue with the FP4. I’ve called support and they were helpful and knowledgeable. My only complaint would be the lack of options, I have Tab Performane 2n2 with V&H Hi Output slip ons and my only option is V&H Hi Output slip ons with V&H Dresser Duels. They only have stock HD and V&H options. Runs good with the tune.

### 4/5 — FP4

*2023-04-28, version 2.0.8*

I bought this and had to send it in to V&H along with my ECM. They found nothing. It ended up being a conflict with the Maestro RR that was installed with my aftermarket head unit. I could not do auto tune without removing the fuse for my radio. I just tried it after this update and BOOM. Everything works now. Thanks for the update V&H.
