It doesn’t work with Nissan Y61.

The app is very nice but it doesn't work with the Nissan Patrol Y61 2014.

Doesn’t work

Fails to load a file on every startup so defaults back to original dash. Also can’t seem to browse any other dashboards as it just says failed to connect.

Quit working

We’ve been using RealDash with a canbus controller for a Tesla battery as part of a custom car that uses Tesla components. After working well for the past year it abruptly quit working due to firmware changes in the app. So far RealDash has been unable to correct the problem effectively disabling numerous projects. Disappointing.

Premium content

I purchased some premium dashes before the subscription. Now I need to purchase a subscription to access them! What gives?

I didn’t need to sign in before. The dashes were tied to my Apple ID since I downloaded it from the App Store

The bad reviews are from people that are clearly not tech savvy.

Best app support I’ve ever seen. Updates add features and fixes. The forum is a huge help. Even if I looked at it as critical as possible the dev deserves at least 4 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
