User Reviews

Users appreciate the VESC Tool app for its wireless configuration capabilities, real-time telemetry, firmware updates, and extensive control over VESC settings all from the phone. The app is stable with a good user interface. However, multiple users report Bluetooth connectivity issues, especially on certain devices and after updates, sometimes causing loss of important features or locking users out. Some advanced tuning options are missing or hard to find. Overall, the app is a valuable tool for VESC users but could improve in connectivity stability and feature completeness.

Pros

Enables wireless configuration and programming of VESC devices via Bluetooth, providing convenience and mobility.
Stable and smooth operation with minimal crashes reported, especially with certain supported hardware.
Provides real-time telemetry data and a well-laid-out dashboard that is useful while riding.
Offers extensive control over VESC settings, comparable to the desktop version.
Supports firmware updates and data logging features for in-depth tuning and analysis.

Cons

Bluetooth connection issues are common on some devices, leading to inability to connect or read firmware version.
Certain updates reportedly introduced new bugs such as push-back at low speeds and loss of features like simple stop.
Lack of warnings when unpairing devices can lock users out of their board unexpectedly.
Some advanced settings and features like throttle curve adjustments or multi-ESC programming are missing or difficult to access.
Occasional disconnects occur when switching apps, and power-saving features on phones can interfere with Bluetooth connectivity.

Recent reviews

VESC tool works as intended, if you get a controller that has Bluetooth capability, you could program the controller with your phone whick is nice and you could use it as a speedometer.
