So here's my honest take on Ford DiagNow. I've tested a bunch of car diagnostic apps and this one's pretty solid. The ability to read codes, check live data, and even do some programming is super handy if you're into wrenching on your own vehicle. And it's not as advanced as a full-blown OBD2 scanner, but for quick checks and minor fixes it works really well. The interface could be a bit more polished, but it gets the job done. If you've got a Ford and like to do your own maintenance, this is worth adding to your toolbox.

Description

Been using Ford DiagNow for a couple months now. It’s basically a diagnostic tool that lets you check your Ford, Lincoln, or Mercury vehicle without needing a big scan tool. Pretty solid app if you’re into fixing up your own car.

Here’s what you can do: you can read the VIN to get info on your specific model, check for error codes, see live data from the engine, and even do some basic programming like keys and keyless entry. There’s also a section for service bulletins – that’s been really useful a few times. Took me a while to figure out all the features but it’s pretty intuitive overall.

Look, if you’re into DIY car repairs, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the interface can be a bit clunky at times – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you’ve got a Ford vehicle.

Dissapointed in this APP. It needs the Command function. Such as rad fan control, A/c clutch control etc. Its too basic of a tool. Its really only good for reading...

David Thomas October 14, 2025

All is well again. You can share codes with your email. The best feature of this app. The other features like bms reset and key programing do work most all...

couldn't tell you how good or bad it is because you can't even log in.
