### 1/5 — junk

*2024-12-29*

Difficult to get codes, then doesn’t let you clear them. Cheaper Bluetooth options out there that do it with ease.

Simple and easy but doesn’t clear codes

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-10-20*

I tried 3 different devices that use this app. All 3 failed to detect a TPMS fault that a more expensive unit had no trouble with. This app and Devi do that use it are useless.

What's the point if I have to use another app because the features don't all work on this one.

### 5/5 — Best Beginner OBD2

*2026-03-23, version 1.1.5*

Attached is the 5 Star review I left for the Umeija Wireless OBD2 scanner this app comes bundled with:

Basic OBD2 scanners are all the same and run up to about $50, without overpaying(which is imminently easy to do!)  At %30 Off, this was $20 delivered().  And also came with small handful of really clutch features!  

Most OBD2 scanners need to be plugged in(for each use) and controlled from a crudely basic control box that has a very limited number of buttons(true through more expensive models also). But this item offers Bluetooth connectivity with your smartphone, making the (Graphic)User Interface, and total amounts of Data displayed go from night to day(.)

Of the small percentage of OBD2 scanners on the market that are Bluetooth; an even smaller percentage come with their own App.  Most Bluetooth OBD2 scanners say "Recommended by These Apps" and refers to a list of 3rd Party App Vendors for you to become involved with; some free some not, some basic some over your head.)  But this product comes with it's own application, tried and tested to work with it's own product!  Similar Bluetooth OBD2 scanners, that come with a dedicated App, are mostly in the >$100 range!  The QR to the app is printed directly on the user manual included, for both iOS and Android compatibility.

At that two more things.  Firstly is that it was all quite simple to use.  There are not very many steps to setup.  And navigating within the App is also simple.  Secondly the App is a little more extensive than your average basic OBD2 scanner.  There are just more functions available(aside from code scanning and clearing) like Performance testing, Datastreaming, I/M(Inspection/Maintenance,) Mode 06(Emmissions,) etc.  All which, again, are infinitely easier to read/compare on a smartphone touchscreen than the average digital(character only) screen and few lonely buttons of your traditional Basic-Advanced plug in OBD2 scanners!

It almost lost a star because the printed set of directions never mentions when to turn the car on during setup.  I actually had to refer to the product description here on Amazon to read of when/how to turn the key of the car.  At that it does not make special note that you actually need to turn the car on, where as with most traditional obd2 scanners it is important that you only turn the ignition On(/Accessory) and do not fully start the vehicle.  

And it almost lost a star because there are two different warranties listed within product contents.  There is a QR code to a Lifetime Warranty printed directly onto the scanner itself.  But then there is a Warranty card that comes within the literature included, that mentions a 12 month warranty; though this Warranty has no mention of Registration.  

But I'm overall very happy with how easy it was to clear my engine code!  The unit is meant to be left plugged in to track Trip metrics.  I'm eager to learn how well that works out.  I'll also be very pleased not to need to pull over, and plug a box in; to read any engine code that also might come up or recurs.  Being able to check a code/light, within moments of it first turning on; via a cradled iPhone, should prove extremely beneficial!  And, otherwise, it's Time to Clock some Performance Data(!)

### 5/5 — Meets the Expectations

*2025-12-18*

Started to use after other obd apps. Worked good so far.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-09-30*

Showed me what I wanted. It’s free people. Why the bad reviews? Works great for what’s needed.

### 5/5 — Arıza silme

*2025-03-04, version 1.1.0*

Arkadaşlar arıza silme nerden yapılıyor? Yardımcı olabilen var mı ?

### 5/5 — Önemli

*2025-02-18, version 1.1.0*

Türkçe dil eklenmesi gerekiyor uygulama harika ama tek eksik Türkçe dil

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-12-25*

People don’t know this but it’s Bluetooth an it could multi connect so just imagine your phone is connected to obd2 home an it will have you connect to your Bluetooth speaker in your car as well works perfectly fine for me good stuff guys keep up the good work

### 5/5 — Better than Expected

*2024-07-30*

I was skeptical as there were only 2 reviews and one of them states it doesn’t work. However, I was only expecting a generic list of codes but instead I found a lot of useful data.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and comprehensive

*2024-07-17*

I had no problem connecting the app with the scanner, once I properly seated it in the port. Most of the functions are easy to understand, though I wish there was a manual of sorts explaining all the options. There is a Routes section I couldn’t figure out; it just said “no data”. The rest was fine and fun to explore.

### 4/5 — MPH?

*2025-09-18*

I would like to see MPH added to the update, if possible other then that the app is cool

### 4/5 — Good

*2025-08-07*

It is easy to look, easy interface.
But I cannot see the full result of graphs when I finish the drive.
For example, in the chart interface, I can see the full results of 3-4 characteristics, but other characteristics are not collecting the real time conditions. When I scroll it down, the results are not collected until I drive.
