evDash OBD2 is a live dashboard and diagnostics multitool for electric vehicles. Connect a compatible OBD2 adapter and view real-time EV data on your phone or Apple CarPlay. evDash is built to support as many electric cars as possible — if a vehicle exposes useful data over OBD2, the goal is to make it work. Main features: • Live EV dashboard with battery, power and driving data • Battery SOC, SOH, voltage, current and charging overview • Cell voltages, temperature data and 12V battery status • Charging graphs and trip energy statistics • Apple CarPlay support • Multi-car garage with quick switching • Service Menu with ECU scan, ECU versions and DTC tools • Pre-purchase battery check and battery health tests • Acceleration and brake tests • TPMS, CAN sniffer and diagnostic export tools • Remote Tuning to help add or improve vehicle support • Local logs, exports and optional remote upload evDash works with supported OBD2 BLE, BT3/SPP, WiFi, MFi/OBDLink, BMW ENET and evDash M5Stack relay adapters. Available data depends on the vehicle model, adapter type and supported vehicle profile. Some cars expose a lot of battery data, some expose only basic OBD2 data, and some are restricted by the vehicle gateway. Which cars are supported, and which data each one provides, is listed in the vehicle support matrix, updated with every release: https://www.evdash.eu/evdash/vehicles/ Reported anomalies — what owners observed after connecting an adapter or during diagnostics, with investigation status and precautions: https://www.evdash.eu/evdash/vehicles/incidents/ evDash Pro unlocks advanced diagnostics, multi-car quick switch, battery internal resistance calculation, cell health tests, graph exports, Service Menu tools and fullscreen diagnostic views. It is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Monthly and yearly plans include the same Pro features. Pricing is displayed in the App Store before purchase and may vary by region. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; the lifetime purchase is a one-time payment with no renewal. You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID account settings. Disclaimer: evDash is a diagnostic tool used to read data from your vehicle and is provided for information purposes only.

Tune

Tune-Up Connect turns your phone into the display and the logger for your car. It connects to two things at once: the ECU in your BMW, over a Wi-Fi OBD adapter or a wired ENET cable, and a GPS timing box over Bluetooth. You get live boost, air fuel ratio, ignition timing and temperatures at the rate your ECU can actually answer, and accurate speed from a 10 Hz GPS receiver at the same time. WHAT YOU CAN DO Live gauges. Pick the channels you care about and lay them out the way you want. Boost is drawn against the ECU's own boost target, so the gap opens up in front of you the moment something is off. Speed runs. 0 to 100 km/h, 0 to 60 mph, quarter mile, roll ons, braking distances. Timing comes from Doppler ground speed rather than from position differences, and every result carries the speed accuracy it was measured at, so you know whether to trust it. Combined logging. Record ECU channels and GPS into one session on one clock. That is what lets you see what the engine was doing at the exact moment the car was pulling. Shift beep. Set an rpm, get a single beep as you cross it, and watch the boost bar flash. Off until you turn it on. Upload. Sign in and send a recording straight to your tuning job, ready for your tuner to read. IF YOU TUNE WITH TUNE-UP Signing in pulls your jobs, your maps and every revision from Tune-Up Console. Pick the revision before you record, and the log reaches the shop already tagged with the car, the map and the revision it was made on. Comparing two revisions is then a matter of reading two logs rather than working out which log was which. When a new revision is added to your tune, the app notices and offers to record into that one instead. Everything above this section works without an account. The upload side is there for customers, not a requirement for using the app. WHAT YOU NEED A BMW with a compatible ECU, and either a Wi-Fi OBD adapter or an ENET cable to reach it. For timing, a Tune-Up Record, Dragy or RaceBox device. The app reads only. It never writes to the ECU and never changes your calibration. TRYING IT WITHOUT A CAR Open the Profile tab and switch on Demo mode. The app simulates a connected car and a connected GPS device, and every screen behaves exactly as it does on a real drive. SAFETY Start a recording before you set off, or let a passenger handle the phone. The timing features are meant for a closed course or a private road, not for public roads.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tune at none against evDash OBD2's 3. evDash OBD2's advantage is device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
