Great app !
I am using this app and I love it ! It gives me every information I want and it is great. I would love to have the posiblity to LOG everything I decide to monitor (3 at a time) and an update towards this would be great ! One thing though, DONT BUY IT IF YOU DONT HAVE THE PLX Ki-Wi device ! It will not work and the app will crush when pressing "Click To Start"
Doesnt work
I have both rev and dash command and they work with no issues. I cant access the menu on this app so all I have is the rom gauge. That gauge lags seriously behind the actual Rpms of the car. So I can only give this a 1. I really would like my money back.
Does not work
How do I get my money back this app doesnt even open what a ripoff
Good, basic, PLX Wifi client
First, you have to realize that this app goes specifically with the PLX Kiwi Wifi OBD-II connector - dont buy this app unless you already have the connector. Also, the app wont work unless you correctly set up your iPhone/iPod to connect to the Kiwi connector - read their manual to get the right settings (its non-trivial). The app is a good basic implementation that shows various OBD-II values in realtime. I used it to help monitor engine coolant temperature on an overheating Miata, and verify that my radiator swap did the job. For that purpose the app worked great. Three stars because theres no way to record data, and you can only display one gauge at a time. For five bucks Id have hoped for some more features.
Works on some vehicles
Just bought a plx kiwi wifi and this app. Tried the app on a 00 2.0 aeg jetta did not work. Half way worked on a 00 dodge Cummings 5.9. Worked perfectly on a 96 gmc 5.7 vortec. Not sure what the deal is I want my money back if this isnt fixed. And a nice add on would be an avg. fuel mpg gauge. Thanks
