There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The bad:
1. I have now read in other reviews that this thing needs internet access (through your cell's data connection) to function. That means if you're stuck on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere with no cell signal (or no data), then you're on your own. This thing isn't going to help you.
2. The dongle is a bit long, so if your OBD2 port points downwards, this might not be the most compact fit. You'll see it sticking out from under your dash.
3. I've now read in another review that this thing can interfere with the car's smart key fob. Indeed, when we had this thing plugged in, the pushbutton ignition had trouble communicating with the key fob.
4. IN-APP PURCHASES absolutely dominate the application. Easily 80% of everything you see in the application is promoting a subscriber-based premium service. The other 20% is pretty easily lost. So I deduct at least a star for the annoyance factor. Also much of the orientation of the app seems to be towards directing you towards a mechanic and knowing how to talk intelligently with the mechanic about what is wrong with your car. This is great for someone who doesn't know anything about cars. But if you're like me (and I imagine I am typical of 90% of the market of this device), you already know about cars, and all this stuff is just more annoyance. Truly, what you want to see gets completely lost.
5. Oil pressure: Fair warning: The vast majority of cars don't have OBD2 data about oil pressure (or oil temperature). It's no fault of this device, but just know that these data are likely not viewable.
6. THOUSANDS of promised readable parameters turn out to be much, much fewer. Maybe a hundred? Maybe less?
7. I selected this specific device because a review I read said that it would read odometer data and remind you of needed service (e.g. oil changes). In fact it will let you enter the odometer reading of your last oil change. Then if you are curious whether you are due for an oil change, you can enter the current odometer reading, and it will calculate for you. (I think I'm good enough at math to figure that one out for myself - with much less effort.)
8. A review I read promised that this thing can read transmission and airbag codes. It cannot.
9. There are much cheaper dongles that will do essentially the same thing, with interfaces that don't demand an internet connection and applications that are far less annoying. Moreover, many of these dongles work with multiple applications available in the Google and Apple apps stores - some free, some for purchase.
I really wanted OBD data to stream to my cellphone and to result in push notifications if any parameters went out of range (e.g. temp) or if the oil needed changing. This should be an easy thing to program, but for some reason it seems not to be available in any application I can find for a dongle.
I solved this need, I THINK, with a hardwired Lufi XS OBD2 gauge display that I've placed on order. It supports alarms, and it is GPS capable. Because of the GPS capability, it can track distance traveled and serve as an editable odometer. I should therefore be able to reset the GPS odometer with every oil change to keep track of service intervals. That frees up the vehicle's real odometer for ordinary use. (I wish my car just had an oil reminder light. It would be so much easier.)
