The app connects to my 2010 Toyota Fortuner but rpm and everything shown is wrong.. For example, when engine is in idle rpm shows 8200 and speed of 70km
Decent interface but shameless panhandling and self promoting nag notifications even on the paid version. I don't need to be made aware of an app throughout my day. I am aware of its existence.
Its a great app👍but sometimes not all the dashboards work on my car's android device?
Worked fine until upgraded to pro, then says my adapter is not connected to the ecu? Which it is with torque Pro...
lots of potential. but app does not hide action bar on my android 5.1.1 head unit so I cannot access settings. please hide action bar in the apps manafest
I like this app... but it needs more dashboards and/or gauges.... how about creating a custom dashboard or gauge?
hi are you still working on this app for updates and would you be able to link to watchmaker or a watch face please thank you for your help regards Paul great app
Cant seem to connect to my obd2 port. Doesnt work and i have the bluedriver obd2 port
i like this app.. used a few but this is my favourite so far.. lots of free downloads for it too
Still, No EV / hybrid settings (pids), I have a chevy volt, there's no RPM, 0 Liters. I have drive battery and a gas tank... I don't know what OBD parameters EVs have. None are listed.
How to select protocol and mode?.. is there a tutorial
Alot of issues.. Disconnection and frrezes
Used to be something better, but was last updated November of 2017. What happened y'all!? It's alright though. I don't have a car anymore. And while I'm grateful to have health insurance and a job working 40-60 hours a week, wages are such a joke I can't even afford co-pays and am literally just waiting to die. I know that's pretty grim but there's probably hundreds of millions of people out there even worse off than me. Well, thanks for the joy I got from your app when I had a vehicle! 🛣️
Unfortunately, I am seeing the same thing some others have seen. Although my ELM327 adapter works FLAWLESSLY with Torque Pro, your app cannot connect to it. I really like the dashboards and customizability, but if it doesn't work with my adapter, I am afraid it is not worth what I paid for it.
Verry tricky to use.. if you have hours of time and reading you just may get somewhere with this app
Is a decent app but with lots of areas for improvement. Most important con is the lack of support for navigation map within the app.
Love it! Just like the watch app. Once you get going who knows what you will come up with!
Great dashboard, but what would make it 5 stars is getting it to work with Android auto so it can be displayed on my infotainment screen
Was hard to get set up but once done it work's fine
What is this aap for I couldn't work at all I need my money back. please tell me how to bet my money refunded?
I use this in my car. Thanks
It is not working and I want my money back
Love It
The Idea behind this App is really good. The Option to read important Data from OBD like Coolant and Oil Temperature is great. BUT, it's impossible to Create and Edit professional gauges, the UI is very poor. This is missing: 1) group function to align the gauges 2) the option to program the gauges on pc and import the file. 3) better documentation of the codes.
After almost a year an update has addressed Tasker integration and it appears to be functioning correctly. Portrait mode still has display issues that makes it unusable for me. Online account portion of app is terrible. Editing/creating dashboards is a tedious affair, needs more options such as group, align, distribute. Descent app if you are good with only having landscape mode.
Hi There.. Its not connecting to OBD2 ELM327.. can you please suggest why? Bluetooth enabled-yes, connection to adapter - yes/no, connection to ECU - No.. I tried another application torque (lite) and everything was working fine..
This is a great application but still a little buggy. On my S5 it works fine but when the dashboard is running it keeps the lights on for the menu and back keys on the bottom of the phone, so they show up on the hud and impact the view. I also find that it doesn't reconnect to the OBD connector reliably when changing dashboards. All in all, though, this is an impressive little app and I recommend it.
It is not connecting to my odb2. I can choose bt device i settings but in status it's disconnected. Different apps (torque pro and others) conected pefrect. I wasted money
Bummer that the app wouldn't connect to my OBD2 adapter even with the latest update, even after I paid for the ad-free version. I sent an email to the admin a month or two ago, but I never got a response. Too bad because it's got cool dashboards and displays. Would have been fun way to let my kids learn some automotive terms and the real-time correlation/relationship between the app gauges and the car IRL.
