## What is MAXOBD?

This MAXOBD app is designed for all car owners, providing convenient vehicle fault detection services. It supports connection with standard OBD protocol devices, allowing users to perform common OBD scans and quickly check the health of their vehicles.

### 1/5 — Amigo, no es tu teléfono ni el aparato.

*2026-05-09*

Está programado para cierta cantidad de ciclos, vuelve a eliminar datos de la Apk, el problema es si eres usuario de iPhone por que se complica más.

### 5/5 — Best Scan Tool I’ve owned

*2026-04-24*

I needed a scan tool specifically to read/clear ABS/SRS/TRANS codes. This device has surpassed my expectations. I’m a mobile mechanic and use it daily. Never had a single problem with it. Highly recommend

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2025-12-11*

After some time app stopped working, get stuck on loading

### 5/5 — جهاز فحص السيارات

### 1/5 — App stopped connecting just one month after buying device

*2025-11-30*

I had the app just over a month and now it no longer connects to the device. Tried stopping the app and disconnecting the device but it just displays a circular progress bar that never goes away even after 5 minutes. The device shows the blue light on when the app is launched so it appears to be an app issue. Since this is the only app that can be used with the device on iPhone, this makes both useless…

### 1/5 — Incompatible with iPhone

*2025-11-28*

Recommended app in my OBD scanner, I return the device as this apps does not connect with iPhone even when states in the product description that it does. Waste of money and time.

### 3/5 — Connection

*2025-11-06*

Wont connect to Iphone. It does connect on Samsung phone…
