We have created a version of our TPMS programming app* for iOS by popular demand. iPhone users can now configure Hybrid NFC sensors with their smartphones. The iOS app also includes new features that deliver a simplified vehicle lookup, essential TPMS information and the flexibility to operate offline. App Fundamentals - Superfast Configuration Configure a Hybrid NFC sensor in one tap. It’s as quick and easy as making a contactless payment.  - Zero Interference Don’t worry about disturbing other sensors whilst configuring. NFC works over ultra-short distances. - Two Ways to Configure Configure a sensor by creating a new ID or entering an existing OE sensor ID. The Manual ID option enables users to skip the relearn process as the ID (in the ECU) is unchanged. New Features on iOS -Favourites Add the vehicles you program most often to the ‘Favourites’ tab and access them quicker than selecting the make and model each time. -Relearn Type Discover which type of relearn procedure applies to a vehicle (auto relearn, OBD, etc.) and what the process involves.    -Automatic Updates Always have the latest coverage at your fingertips. The vehicle database automatically updates when you launch the app**. -Offline Usage No internet? No problem! The app runs smoothly without a connection too. In this instance, it will draw on the last database downloaded. Please note, before using the vehicle lookup, you must select Europe (EU), North America (NA) or Australia (AU) to access the appropriate vehicle database for your location. *Available for the iPhone 7 or newer with a minimum of iOS 15. **Mobile data or a Wi-Fi connection is required.

Take full control of your car with CarCoding — an all-in-one OBD2 scanner, diagnostics and ECU coding app. Plug in any ELM327 Bluetooth (BLE) or Wi-Fi adapter and reach your vehicle's control units in seconds. Find out why the check engine light is on, clear fault codes, watch live engine data, and explore the hidden features your car shipped with. ▸ WHAT YOU GET • PROFESSIONAL OBD2 DIAGNOSTICS Read and clear DTC fault codes — standard P-codes plus manufacturer-specific codes. Check readiness monitors before an emissions test and scan multiple control units, not just the engine. • AI REPAIR ASSISTANT What does "P0420" actually mean? The built-in AI explains the likely cause, how urgent it is, and what to check first — in plain language, no jargon. • LIVE DATA & DIGITAL GAUGES Track RPM, coolant and oil temperature, boost pressure, fuel trim, battery voltage and more on customizable low-latency gauges. Record a session and export the log. • APPLE CARPLAY & SIRI CarCoding now runs on your car's screen. CarPlay lists live values in real time — speed, RPM, engine temperature, battery voltage and more — shows active fault codes, and alerts you when a value goes beyond a safe range. And you can just ask Siri: "What's my engine temperature?" • ECU CODING & HIDDEN FEATURES Read your control unit's coding data, back it up, and explore factory options such as mirror folding on lock, seatbelt chime, gauge sweep and lighting behavior. Expert Mode gives direct hex/byte access for advanced users. • VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY Diagnostics work on every OBD2-compliant car (US 1996+, EU petrol 2001+, diesel 2004+). Coding depends on brand, model and equipment — support is deepest on BMW F-series; on many other brands coding data can be read and analyzed but not written. • SUPPORTED ADAPTERS Works with quality ELM327 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Wi-Fi OBD2 adapters. ▪ Coding writes data to control modules. CarCoding backs up your data first — keep the ignition on and the connection alive during the process. Become the master of your own garage. Download CarCoding.
