Features & Capabilities

Bosch Mobile Scan turns your smartphone into a vehicle diagnostic toolkit when paired with the Bosch Mobile Scan adapter, designed for both DIYers and professional technicians. It provides essential diagnostics such as probable causes for check engine, ABS, or airbag lights, along with QuickCheck for emissions status, Read/Erase Global OBD II codes, AutoID for broad vehicle coverage, TrueLink, MyGarage, and a Vehicle Activity Log. You can share screen captures via Facebook or email.

Powertrain Enhanced Data is included with the adapter, delivering manufacturer-specific codes, freeze-frame data, live data graphs, and CodeConnect fixes for many makes. Optional App Enhancements add ABS and Airbag code definitions (with per-vehicle or all-manufacturer access) and extend CodeConnect coverage, helping you diagnose and fix issues faster.

User Reviews

Reviews show Bosch Mobile Scan is a mixed bag: the hardware and app can deliver useful Bluetooth OBD-II data and deep diagnostics when it works, including features like transmission temperature and potential cost/time savings. However, many users report recurring connectivity problems, loss of live data while driving after updates, and frequent firmware/app issues that brick devices or break compatibility (notably with iOS 16). There is further frustration over feature removals and value. Overall, performance is inconsistent and highly dependent on updates and support.
Pros
  • Excellent Bluetooth OBD-II device when the app works.
  • Provides deep diagnostic data (e.g., transmission temperature) for modern cars.
  • Users report saving time and money with the app over years of use.
  • Access to additional codes (e.g., ABS/BCM) with a paid upgrade.
  • Long-term users report sustained value over years.
Cons
  • Frequent Bluetooth connectivity issues—difficult pairing, slow connections, or failure to connect.
  • No live data while the vehicle is moving; live data feature removed.
  • Firmware/app updates cause crashes, update failures, or bricking the device.
  • iOS 16 compatibility issues and general post-update instability.
  • Perceived poor value and support; buyers feel misled about features or upgrades.

Excellent Bluetooth device.

This app, and OBD II scanner works great. One just needs to understand how it works. I’m giving it 4 stars and not 5 because you have to pay for an upgraded version to read some ABS, BCM codes.

Isn’t capable with IOS 16. Stopped working after the update. It has always had issues with each update. It’s garbage now.
