Doesn’t work

Didn’t even work, no updates waste of time.

Great app but..

Wonderful app! Been using it for years connecting to a WiFi elm327 dongle with an older bmw and Audi . Dtc read and clear works
Live data works
But tried it with a 2019 Mercedes and while everything including live data works great
But
When I try to read dtc code , app crashes 😭

Any help?

Thanks

Tried multiple times- unable to connect iPhone, 14 pro

Unable to connect to the BT device, mind you this is the app that was recommended by the Bluetooth connector. Piece of junk.
