### 1/5 — Apparently not compatible w iPhone 16

*2025-06-30, version 2.1*

Worked years ago but no longer usable. “Protocol faults” using Dash Commander, simply won’t connect using this app. It shows connection in the iPhone Bluetooth list but that’s it.  Looks like my GoPoint device is now e-scrap.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2024-05-20, version 2.1*

App crashes.  Now my code reader is useless.  Insane.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2024-03-25, version 2.1*

It was a very good scanner. But it hasn’t been updated to use newer phones.

### 1/5 — I spent how much on this app and device?

*2023-11-30, version 2.1*

Ok so I spent way too much on the device that went with this app only to have GoPoint forget to maintain the app. Last update was how long ago? Come on guys, you can do better than that. You made a ton of money off of suckers like me. Do the right thing and update your app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2023-10-27, version 2.1*

iPhone 13 Pro Max. Deleted and reinstalled, but it still crashes before you ever get any useful info.

### 1/5 — When is the update?

*2023-08-03, version 2.1*

App keeps crashing when I try to scan

### 3/5 — Used to work great.

*2022-10-30, version 2.1*

Doesn’t seem to be supported on iPhone 14. Used to work great on my iPhone 6s. Seems like it needs an update.

### 1/5 — Garbage app, garbage hardware and garbage company.

*2022-02-26, version 2.1*

Garbage app, garbage hardware and garbage company. Why this app is allowed on iTunes App Store is beyond me.

### 5/5 — Paid for itself many times over

*2018-08-28, version 2.1*

Bought way back when Popular Mechanics reviewed the app and reader. They gave it high marks back then and today I’m continuing giving it high marks and recommendations.

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2018-03-05, version 2.1*

I’ve used this app for years. I first had the wired OBD2 plug and then the wireless version. The app used to show you what monitors were set but no longer. Now its useless.
