### 1/5 — Why ?

*2023-08-31*

Nothing is working. That app is a shame

### 1/5 — iOS Apps should “just work” this one does not..

*2022-08-01*

I tried this app with TWO different WiFi enabled OBDII scanners on my 2018 Kia Stinger. When I would go to read the sensor data it would either time out and fail to load data or crash. Emails to support went unanswered. This is a waste of 10 bucks.

### 1/5 — App crash

*2021-09-24*

A shame 😱

### 4/5 — tiffaninycole21

*2021-04-16*

tiffaninycole21, had you bothered to click on “more”. You would have realized an OBD adapter was necessary. This isn’t the apps fault, it’s strictly yours, for being ignorant.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2020-08-03*

Does not include in the description that an OBD sensor is needed to access the information.

### 5/5 — Good OBD app

*2019-11-11*

Kia Rio
