idosubaru Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 iOS Which app are you using? And which Bluetooth adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt167 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I don't have one yet. Got a vag com cable instead. But what I read is as long as the elm 327 is v1.5 or v1.4 it will work with most apps. Wifi only for ios. There are other adapters now like obd link mx Bluetooth and wifi but the apps are written for elm327 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 Okay I'm oblivious to this what does elm mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt167 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Elm327 is the name of the first Bluetooth obd II adapter. Its been copied a lot in recent years and now has wifi capable versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairtax4me Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I've been using blue driver for a few years and like it, but it isn't as capable as Torque, and it costs around $100 now for the adapter, so I have a hard time recommending it. Haven't used any of the newer stuff though I will probably be trying some of them here pretty soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdconvert Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 This is the OBDII tool I bought - works great. //www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NLQAHS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I bought torque pro software and have been happy with that, too.
