Review summary

User reviews show a split: the app is praised for quality and usefulness when it connects, with several calling it good to excellent and a handy diagnostic tool. However, frequent fees, subscription prompts, and limited free options dominate the negatives, along with connectivity problems and privacy concerns. A learning curve exists. Overall sentiment depends on tolerance for paying, data concerns, and troubleshooting connectivity, but the core tool is seen as capable when it works.
Pros
  • Works as designed and is a useful diagnostic tool when it connects
  • Positive quality perception with multiple mentions of awesome, great, or excellent
  • Handy tool for diagnostics once you learn the workflow
  • Worth the money / good value for some users
Cons
  • Frequent fees and subscription demands; many reviews say free version is limited or useless
  • Connection issues: can be slow or cannot connect to the car
  • Privacy concerns and unexpected data sharing or charges
  • Learning curve and setup can be tedious; not intuitive at first

eventually it connected with my OBD ! shame that it shows some random fault codes and didn't show the serious i had. Also, no diagnostics scan any more. had it for couple hours and found useless. old version was much better if I knew I would not have paid for it. I'd like a refund because of above.

The app is great and does what it promises. I click on the 3 days free trial and they charge my wife's Credit Card ( not mine) for a year of membership, even when I sent them emails from day 2 explaining that I could not see the option to unsubscribe. only after the yearly charge , we noticed they charged a CC that is not in my account and I can't unsubscribe yet. OBD Auto De team: please check my 3 emails to you and solve the issue. your app is good but you should not charge people like that.

Not super stoked on this android app. It shows multi0le sensors with zero reading, explanations or no ability to edit data. I'll have to try it out with my laptop to see if there is a difference, but I have my doubts.
