User Reviews

GWSCAN reviews show a split experience: when the scanner connects, the app is easy to use and delivers useful live data, with some users reporting smooth pairing (e.g., Honda CR-V 2024). However, many users face recurring problems including difficult Bluetooth pairing and repeated connection timeouts, login/account creation failures, and data access only when the scanner is active. Activation can be blocked by serial-number editing issues. A common ask is for Apple CarPlay support to improve in-car integration. Overall, the app has potential but reliability and onboarding need significant improvement.
Pros
  • Easy to use and set up; intuitive interface.
  • Provides useful live data and vehicle details when connected.
  • Relatively smooth pairing and data retrieval for some vehicles (e.g., Honda CR-V 2024).
Cons
  • Frequent connectivity and Bluetooth pairing problems, including devices not appearing in Bluetooth lists and repeated connection failures.
  • Login failures and account creation timeouts, with reports of 'timed out' requests and unresponsive support.
  • Data access is limited unless the scanner is actively connected; standalone use is effectively unusable for many tasks.
  • Activation issues due to inability to edit serial numbers.
  • No Apple CarPlay support currently; users want CarPlay integration.

What a scam tool! It has been a great scan tool. I got rid of my three other scan tools. It’s not big but it takes care of my wife’s sienna van. I am on Gumroad selling digital diagnostic and troubleshooting on cars and I will definately share my experiences on my PDFs. Thank you Gearbox!!

Amazing tool

As people have said, this basically has to be your only Bluetooth connection. However I’ve had no issues with the diagnostic scans, clearing codes or any of the features. The UI of the app isn’t great. Wish I could change the color scheme to something other than orange and it would be nice to be able to customize the picture of the car to match my actual car. Good app but needs more customization
