Review summary

Users find the TDI Tuning app useful for remote control of their tuning box, with good functionality once connected. However, many report frequent Bluetooth connectivity problems, app crashes, and failure to recognize their device. Some users have experienced improvements after recent updates and praise customer support, but inconsistent performance remains a major drawback. There is also a request for Android Auto support to enhance usability while driving.

Pros

Allows remote operation of the tuning device via Bluetooth
Good control of tuning settings once connected
Positive customer service experience reported by some users
Recent updates have improved connectivity issues for some users

Cons

Bluetooth connectivity is often unstable or fails to connect consistently
App frequently crashes or fails to open properly
App sometimes does not recognize the tuning unit even when paired
Settings are not retained after disconnection, requiring manual adjustments
Lack of integration with Android Auto is a missing feature requested by users

2024-10-23	La*****	Nice app for remote operation. Activate location to connect for first time to tuning device with Bluetooth. After that it easily connects using Bluetooth from inside the car. No issues.

2023-01-24	Je*****	Sometimes it connects, while others you have to open the app then close it and open it back up again and on the second or third try or sometimes holding the phone right next to the tuner it will work. Today I was unsuccessful at even that so I am now wondering if my TDI tuners bluetooth went bad.

2022-10-26	Jo*****	90% of the time it doesn't connect, ended up having to jump out in the rain to adjust it under thr bonnet on the device Edit. Unfortunately I can't get it to connect at all. Pretty unacceptable for for an expensive optional extra. The product itself is great but I think I'll advise people stay clear of the bluetooth option as I feel pretty scammed out of the extra money. Update. Dyno showed it wasn't even doing anything, app never once connected. Paid for a remap isntead, huge difference

2022-10-02	Aj*****	Was not connecting at first, but once you do your 60 miles before you can start changing mode, the app connected right away. For those having connection issue right after installation, try running the car for the first 60 miles and then try again, maybe it can work in this way for you as well.

2022-08-03	St*****	Using Android app, finds TDI box, will not go to log in screen, but jumps straight to 'failed to pair', tried on its phone and works fine, tried 3 Android phones, same problem.....the app is badly flawed and doesn't inspire confidence in the hardware. Contacted 'support' but very limited with advice, turn on/off, reload etc. Hoping"support" comes good....

2022-06-10	Sc*****	Great, but you are missing the most important feature. This app should be on Android auto. That way you can then control the modes on the screen whilst driving. You are missing a trick if you don't do that!

2022-05-06	Tr*****	This is purely for the connectivity. Although I can pair with the unit, the unit and app don't recognise each other. This has been tried on smasung s6, s10 s21+ and tab 6 lite. This is something that needs to be sorted out as this seems to be a very common issue. I would tell everyone to steer clear of the Bluetooth option as it currently is.

2022-01-16	Tr*****	I have a 21 plus running android 12 and the ap doesn't recognise the unit. The phone paired easily with the device. I have followed the instructions from tdi with the exception of using another phone.

2021-12-02	Ty*****	Excellent app. Since my 21 Ultra updated to Android 12 there has been no issue in connecting to the box via Bluetooth. Transpires it was an Android 11 issue. App is great to control the settings on the box at anytime you like.

2021-07-02	Jo*****	I stopped using this app in March 2021 as it was very temperamental, sometimes it would connect and sometimes it wouldn't and quite often it crashed so much so that I uninstalled it. Anyway thought I would give it another try today after reading it had had an update and low and behold it connected straight away with my box and so far it hasn't crashed.
