Designed for Fiat JTDm Multijet diesel engines and compatible models from Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Suzuki, it allows users to monitor the diesel particulate filter (DPF) clog levels, regeneration progress, and various engine parameters. By connecting via Bluetooth or WiFi to your vehicle's OBD port, the extension displays real-time data such as DPF status, temperature readings, differential pressure, and oil change information.

## Review summary

Users find the app useful for monitoring DPF conditions, especially with compatible vehicles and using the pro version for more features. However, many report connectivity issues with adapters, lack of USB support, and that the app requires the pro version for meaningful data. Users also desire manual control for DPF regeneration, which is not available. Some vehicle models are not supported, and occasional inaccurate readings detract from reliability.

### Pros

- Provides useful DPF condition monitoring and clog level percentages.
- Compatibility with certain vehicles like Fiat Doblo 263, Alfa Romeo 159, and Fiat Ducato.
- Offers detailed information in the pro version, including regen process status and history.
- Helps users plan regeneration drives by indicating when DPF is full or in regen mode.

### Cons

- Requires purchase of the pro version to access most features, limiting free usability.
- Connectivity issues with Bluetooth adapters and no USB connection support reported.
- App does not work on several vehicle models like Lancia Delta Diesel, Alfa Romeo 147, and Giulia 2019.
- Does not allow manual initiation of DPF regeneration process.
- Inconsistent or incorrect readings reported, such as odometer discrepancies.
