For iOS (iPhones), Android & Windows - WiFi OBD2 Scanner / Code Reader

This obd2 reader worked great on my 2021 Ram Cummins 2500. I used it to monitor all my sensors while pulling heavy loads. Always had a great connection easy to use. Not too bulky and stayed out of the way. Not sure which one would have been better, the wifi or Bluetooth. Either way, it worked as intended.

I bought this because I was too lazy to take my car to autozone after a check engine light was coming on and off for a week. This product was very easy to use and the instruction booklet was straightfoward. I love that I can both scan codes and reset codes right from my phone! My only complaint is that it uses WiFi rather than Bluetooth, but that's a pretty minor complaint. You will also need a 3rd party app in order to receive data from the reader. I downloaded OBD Fusion. This reader is specifically compatible with iOS, make sure you have an iPhone or something! If anyone is having trouble, follow these steps: 1. Plug reader into OBD2 port 2. Turn car to "ON" but do not turn it over! Engine should not be running. 3. Go to wifi settings on your iPhone/iPad/Mac and find the OBDII network. 4. Connect to the network, more details and troubleshooting can be found in booklet 5. Go to the app you installed and run a scan for codes! And if anyone was wondering, my check engine light was due to advanced timing somewhere in the engine. After researching, I discovered it was because I had forgotten to get an oil change for far too long. Oops :( at least it was a cheap and easy fix. If I had taken it to the dealer I have no doubts they would have sold me a ton of stuff I didn't need.

This product works as advertised. It plugs in, connects quick, and makes life much easier. Its a good price and i have 0 complaints about the product. So, what's the catch? Simple: this product does NOT come with an App. You have to download one separately. If you use android, no problem. There a couple free, fantastic, ones. If you are on Apple/IOS? You're going to have to pay a few extra dollars to get a good app. I read this and thought it would not be an issue, they seemed cheap enough and had free trials. However... the quality of cheap apps are poor at best. If i had known this, i may have bought a different, more expensive, product that comes with software - given that I'm on apple And the cheapest Software runs around 12$, and you probably wont get much from it. Having to invest around 25$ for actual work. Making the total cost of this tool for me around 50$. If that sounds reasonable then you found your scanner! Again, works like a charm. Updates quick. Reads thousands of codes and has worked in every vehicle i put it in - no issues.

Purchased the iOS version that comes with WiFi and Bluetooth. Ever since iOS 13, Apple only allows items with 4.0 Bluetooth to work. This item is 3.0 Bluetooth which is compatible with Android only. The item does not come with an app however, Installation was easy. Insert the device into Odb2 slot, turn car on, wait for lights to flash and connect it to your phone’s WiFi. Keep in mind also that when connected via WiFi you will not be able to connect to the internet. It is for this that the Bluetooth version is better in my opinion. There are are numerous apps to use on the AppStore. I am currently using Car Scanner which is free with an option to purchase which removes ads. Android store has an app called torque which is very nice but unavailable in iOS. The unit is very responsive and works great in my 2015 Mazda CX-5. It’s about 4 inches x 2 inches and may be left in the slot permanently. It basically disappears and is unnoticeable when installed. It reads speed, rpms and has live data. It also displays trouble codes and has the option to erase them. If a code is found simply do a google search for a description. It can also inform you if your car will pass an emissions test. I really like the tool and overall it’s a must have for all cars.

Save a trip to the local store or mechanic, round up an unused tablet & have at it! You could also just use a smartphone. This one is really handy because there's no mechanical switch to flip or buttons to push to change modes, the software can do it for you. It's plug in, download an app, connect via wifi & go. A tablet is probably better if you're using this for a gauge cluster or recording diagnostic runs, just due to the larger screen. This worked fine on my iPhone as a code reader & clearing said codes. A sweet bonus to this one, with the correct app, it could read some of the subsystems! I know they don't advertise this, but it works great with ForScan. Anything Ford/Lincoln/Mercury & Forscan will let you connect to things like the BCM (body control module), which is where other error codes can be stored & give you more info as to what is going on. Only drawback is there might be some vehicles that this can be a tight fit, my truck covers the status lights. I'll probably pick up a short extension cable for mine.

Works well with my iPhone through wifi. Supports a lot of protocols. Still exploring but I like the build quality and seems to work well.

Used with Alfaobd to connect to my 2017 Ram 2500. Works great and easy to ise

thought it will erase any code that was on computer but it didn't yet they stated that it will work on mercedes benz cars

Seems to be a solid product. It works well with Dash Command with minimal lag. Don’t leave it plugged in or it will drain your battery FYI. Two year warranty suggests it’s of good quality.

In the ever-evolving landscape of mobile auto detailing, incorporating technology that streamlines our operations and enhances our service offerings is crucial.

This tool promised to be a game-changer by providing a wireless method to diagnose and understand check engine lights and other vehicle issues directly from our smartphones.

The initial appeal of the BAFX Products OBD2 Code Reader was its promise of easy connectivity and the ability to quickly diagnose vehicle issues without the need for bulky, traditional diagnostic tools.

When it worked, it was incredibly efficient, providing us with real-time data and error codes that could easily be looked up through its accompanying app. This functionality allowed us to offer our clients an added layer of service—identifying potential issues before they became major problems, which was highly appreciated.
