Easy to use all paired with a really good tune, very worth it for 300 dollars. Cant recommend more.

### 5/5 — Frkn awesome

*2026-06-25, version 3.19.1*

I think it’s great, gives you my control of your car and the shifts and quickness is really awesome. App is fairly easy to use, learn what you are changing over and over before making that change. “Happy tuning”

### 5/5 — They work magic

*2026-06-25, version 3.19.1*

If you get a bmw or other supported car and tune it, this is an absolute must. A tuned car without the transmission tune is held back a lot, this wakes it up. The customer support is also amazing. 10/10 will use again

### 5/5 — Must-Have

*2026-06-25, version 3.19.1*

### 5/5 — One of the best tools for your Transmission

*2026-06-18, version 3.19*

Above and beyond customer service as well, my previous supra is not longer with us but Sebastian from the team was willing to transfer the tune licence over to my new car! Can highly recommend this app for tuning your transmission, easy to use and makes a huge difference.

### 4/5 — Really easy to install

*2026-06-18, version 3.19*

I was worried with all the issues of battery drain and time to connect, it took less than than 10 mins. The terminology is a bit confusing but the results are amazing

### 4/5 — 8/10

*2026-06-18, version 3.19*

Pretty solid so far, but was a little picky on adapter for the MKV Supra. Didn’t like mhd red but liked the bm3 wireless adapter.

### 5/5 — Bmw m140i

Excellent

Best in the game

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2026-03-22, version 3.16.0*

Trying to get a straight answer is near impossible. After contacting customer service several times, they refuse to give you a straight answer and will send you their “manual” to read, that you’ve already read prior to contacting them. Response times are awful, and the answers somehow are worse.

### 1/5 — wont flash version 11 only version 10

*2025-05-20, version 3.10.6*

hi is there any update for this issues

### 1/5 — Bad idea

*2024-09-30, version 3.6.11*

Because of the update you guys are ficking this up. Last year everything was go to go. Now everything is an issue. I was trying to reflash my transmission and my f85 now is stuck couldn’t get it to show P or drive on the dash board. Now my car is stuck. Need help with this.

### 1/5 — Adapter not found

*2024-07-22*

Used multiple devices to try and connect . Followed all over there to instructions . Even the re-emailed one they provided. Took it to a shop . They even had a hard time with connecting . Still had to pay for there labor Had the vehicle on a battery tender. I eventually had to use a power tap obd2 doggle. That i use for VW/Audi. Then it came down to no internet connection . Laptop , tablet , and iPhone 11 Pro Max w/ 17.5.1 iOS still could not connect. Even took out my pedal commander and motiv reflex box to make sure there was no disturbance to the canbus system . Turned off Bluetooth connection for infotainment system. Tried everything . I can connect to bm3 no issue. I can connect my snap on triton scanner updated to 2026 (monthly $45 subscription) . Now they are threatening to lock my tcu because I requested a refund. Yea that’s against the law bucko. Show me the contract with my signature. Not trying to be a stifler by any means . But you can’t advertise hand held and none of my devices connect . Send me my refund .

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thank you for contacting us!
​
You cannot use OBD2 Adapters for VW/Audi, as they use a different data protocol.
Please read our online manual carefully and only use the Adapters we specifically list as compatible. 

Not every OBD2 adapter, whether cable or Wireless, is supported. Here is a list of supported adapters:

### 1/5 — Lost license

*2023-11-07, version 3.4.0*

My phone broke and the license and all 3 map packages gone 😡

### 1/5 — Pretty inconvenient pricing model

*2023-08-18, version 3.1.1*

I recently realized that the map pack + flash license is locked per car per VIN. Since I change BMW every 3 years, it’s pretty inconvenient for me to spend around 450$ every time for this application to work. I had a flash license and a map pack from my previous car that I had only for 1 year and now I can’t use the application my new car unfortunately

### 1/5 — Still ON VERSION 1.0 in 2022

*2022-07-30, version 2.22.3*

THis app has up to version 1.2.4 for all cars it seems but the G series which is is still experiencing very hard unusual shift going from 3rd gear to 2nd. THIS IS SAD xHP!

### 1/5 — How I’m the world u sign out if u used a wrong email?

*2021-11-26, version 2.17.0*

Can’t sign out

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2021-07-17, version 2.13.1*

Nothing but trouble trying to flash my car, constantly telling me it can’t connect to the car. Little to none help about troubleshooting the problem whatever

### 1/5 — abysmal

*2021-01-30, version 2.8.0*

abysmal customer service

### 5/5 — A must have

*2026-09-07, version 4.7.29*

I have xHP stage 2 OST map for a few months already, and been extremely satisfied with the new transmission behaviour. It drastically improves the responsiveness of the car while in Sport mode and yet makes the shift even smoother in Comfort mode. It’s also got a great customer support team, all my questions got addressed in a timely manner. Again I highly recommend xHP for your cars, it’s a must have even with stock ECU tune!

### 5/5 — Great people, excellent customer service

*2026-09-03, version 4.7.21*

XHP by far has the best customer service. Very fast responses. Nice, kind and well manored people. Will always be using xHP they’ve got a customer forever

### 5/5 — Love this xHP App

*2026-09-01, version 4.7.21*

All the functions and fine tuning for my transmission is phenomenal couldn’t ask for a better software to get my car up to speed🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-08-27, version 4.7.21*

Such a great product, absolutely loving it. I actually got it for my 25th birthday and it’s great! Can’t speak highly enough of it. Martin has also been really great and has been very responsive with emails! 

Thanks all!

### 5/5 — XHP trans tune 540i

*2026-08-20, version 4.7.14*

Super easy to use interface. Highly customizable with already preloaded recommended safe trans maps. Also great customer service. I needed to have a license transferred and they were super quick with emails to fix it in one day!

### 5/5 — Aaaaa

*2026-08-15, version 4.7.11*

Uuuu

### 5/5 — Sensational

*2026-08-14, version 4.7.11*

Major difference in shifting. Especially with a custom tune !

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2026-08-13, version 4.7.11*

This app completely changed my BMW’s to be the machines that I want them to be.  Combined with MHD, I have been able to make two very different driving experiences that are equally enjoyable in different ways.  If you want to wake up your car and unlock its potential, I highly recommend these apps.  Also, make sure you read and do your due diligence when tuning.  Sometimes less is more in a very significant way.

### 5/5 — Beyond Amazed

*2026-08-10, version 4.7.7*

The performance difference exceeded every expectation I could’ve had.

### 5/5 — Great !

*2026-08-10, version 4.7.7*

xHP completely transformed the way my transmission performs. The shifts are much quicker and smoother, especially under hard acceleration. I love how responsive the car feels now—the transmission holds gears exactly when I want it to and the overall driving experience feels way more aggressive. Definitely one of the best upgrades I’ve done.
