### 1/5 — Lost Previous Data

*2026-07-09*

The last update, addition to only displaying Chinese, appears to have deleted all information stored by the previous version of the app. Vehicles, reports, years of historical data that I had carefully collected is now gone. Thanks Autophix.

### 2/5 — Worked well until July 2026

*2026-07-07*

With the latest update the app converted from English to what I assume is Chinese. It looks like the App Store entry has also fully converted to Chinese. I’m not sure if there was a change in ownership but my OBD reader is now a paperweight. It’s a shame because the OBD reader was helpful.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work
