Good app and great OBD2 connector. I purchased Toyota enhanced package for this, which provides access to all sensors. Only negative is difficulty of accessing customer service. They don't provide any phone number and you have to go through email over multiple days, which is slow and requires lots of patience. However, they were nice and through via email.
Great information. Connected to my G37 no problem. Config of dashboard is very flexible but the tradeoff is that it's a little complicated to use. When there's only one device available it should auto-connect. After auto-connecting to the device it should automatically use the correct car profile based on the VIN it's getting from the device.
Greed? Got this adapter because it was the best. Unfortunately no free lunch as enhances codes cost $9.99 per make, and per year!! I personally have several vehicles and it would be more coat effective buying an adapter with this support out of the box (nevermind if you buy a new car). Simple app and interface is just that but you can do the uaual check and clear codes.
OBDLINK MX worked well straight from the package. Uploaded my specific add ons with no problem. Still getting used to the features. Bluetooth set up confusing, make sure to press the little button on the adapter to link to your phone or device. Does not say that in the instructions. other than that great product. Still need to test on a vehicle that has Check Engine Light.
When it works awesome. However I used it a few time no issue. Pulled it out maybe a year later and keep getting this persistent error message thing. It would force close on my phone. I grabbed my chomebook and was able to get it to connect and there was a firmware update. That fixed the issue it now works. So try either your phone or a different android device that has Good strong internet. It made me register device and it fixed itself with the error msg.
This is the second device I have used. The first one was bricked after I followed the prompt to do a firmware update. The customer service was excellent, and they sent a replacement to me quickly, without requiring me to send the bad one back. It will occasionally lose pairing. When that happens it pairs again quickly. It won't pair with 4 digit Bluetooth code. Because of that, I have to use the app on my phone instead of my car stereo receiver that runs on Android OS.
Overall, this is a fairly decent app and device. My only complaint is that it didn't detect any additional items from my vehicle, but since Jeep (or any Chrysler product for that matter) doesn't get the enhanced features. Guess that only comes from the manufacturers and I won't hold my breathe on that happening. Other than that I've enjoyed it.
Buy the tool for almost 100 then they want you to pay for more. Crazy. When I first bought it most of the information was included after a few updates and passed time more and more data has been put behind a paywall. It's like buying exercise equipment for a couple of grand but you still have to have a subscription to use it. People stop buying into this trash and take back ownership. If you just bought this, take it back because they will want more money.
Update - It connected and started working properly the next day for no apparent reason. Rolled back and reupdated the firmware for safe measure. Old - Used to work well, aside from occasionally needing to repair the Bluetooth connection to my phone (annoying, but I lived with it). After last app update (or firmware update), the app won't connect even though the phone shows the adapter is paired. Yes, I uninstalled/reinstalled app, reset adapter, repaired Bluetooth multiple times with no luck.
I'ts alright... My most annoying issue is when and at random times I'm using my phone or tablet, making calls, sending texts, you know, doing every day things, and I'm not even using the OBD App... a message will pop up saying "Loading Vehicle Data" and its frustrating because the app for some unknown reason I know it's open and running in the background somewhere. (Yes, I even have forceclose it) What I've been doing is installing it when needed and when done uninstalling it.
