## Description

**Droid Personal Flasher** is a powerful personal OBD2 flasher designed for ECU tuning and firmware management. It works with the dedicated "DroidPersonalFlasher" interface and supports a wide range of cars, enabling users to read and write the ECU's internal firmware efficiently.

Once connected, the interface automatically uploads files to an online tuner backend where up to four modified firmware files can be managed. Users can flash original or modified files multiple times as needed. The software supports master branded versions tied to specific tuners or a free version allowing tuner selection from a directory. Tuners can remotely manage all users through mobile or tablet devices, offering full control over the tuning process.
