Nice app

Love this app. Dont have a vehicle with Apple CarPlay yet, but Im hoping this app is compatible so it can display the gauges on the screen in the vehicle!

Ver 3.2.0 wont update

This used to work just fine all these days. The new version 3.2.0 that came out July 13 2016 just wont update on my iPhone. I tried to delete the app n get it sm again from the App Store, but it wont download either. The download from cloud option just seems to switch to "update" and that wont happen either. Now that I delete the previous versions I dont have the app when I need it. Please fix ver 3.2.0 so ppl can either update or download fresh.

Just beginning to learn it then it was updated

I was still learning how to use it, trying to figure out how to access certain features that are in OBD Fusion but that didnt seem to be available in this app, and then there was an update that update will not install. Reboot and remove and no joy. Now I cant reinstall the app either. Help!

Trans Temp Missing. CarPlay Support Please!

Cool app which is a rebranded version of OBD Fusion, now if I could only get non-OBD sensor data into this app too! Oh and how about CarPlay support please!!! Oddly I can not get trans temp on my 2002 Camaro V6, but can on TrackAddict. Please fix this! If only the connection issues would get resolved, this app & the adapter would be almost perfect.

Update required

Connection is not so easy. First time it worked perfectly well. Second trip, no connection.

_so_ cool!

Finally! A Dashboard like the Nissan GTR for everybody!

Only miles per hour...

The app right now supports only miles (mph) and fahrenheit - kilometers and celsius are needed enhancements for international users.

Very nice easy to use!

This program is very nice and easy to use. Very simple but get you the information you need. Works very well with my obdlink wifi but I noticed one time it got disconnected and it wants me to reconnect by pressing the button. It need a auto reconnect option. Also I wish there was a GUI for special setting like sleep time setting and wake up settings and outer settings that make the obdlink special compared to the other scanners.

Great product, solid app

Quite pleased with the MX Wi-Fi and its companion app. The UI isnt spectacular, but its fairly simple and straightforward which is way more important than being aesthetically pleasing (not to say that the app isnt). Pro tip for anyone using this with a push-start button on their vehicle - some vehicles have 2 modes of "on" so if you find that you cant connect after pushing the button once (without your foot on the brake pedal), try pushing it a second time (usually triggers the rest of the dash indicators to light up) and connecting again.

Clean and useful

Functional, simple, works as advertised. Logging functions nicely too. Experiencing occasional disconnects, but not sure if due to app or MX dongle. Overall very happy with purchase though.

MX disconnecting

The MX OBDLink Wifi seems to work amazing when the car is idle and not moving. However when the car is moving I noticed that its very glitchy and it doesnt keep up with the real time data. My connection is also dropping and there are times I cant reconnect. Very frustrating. I hope they fix these issues in the next software release.

Initial set up complicated

The initial set up is cumbersome as it requires internet access after connecting to the MX Wifi SID for registration. Setting preferences to show dashboard has default page also shows a programatic error message about missing object instance references. Software works as expected otherwise.

Do not buy obdlink mx wifi, I repeat do not...

Poorest service after sale I have ever seen in my entire life. Bought this device (pledged through Kickstarter) and they have been failing to upgrade their firmware for at least 6 months now. The application keep crashing and disconnecting from the device. On their forum, we don’t received answer to our question toward this product. DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE.

Works great... for a few seconds

Sadly, I will be returning this product. The WiFi connection drops every 30-60 seconds. Sometimes it will not connect at all. In looking at the OBDLink/ScanTool forums, others have experienced this. People have been waiting for months for this to be fixed, but no sign of that happening any time soon. Too bad, because it looks quite slick for the few seconds that it does work!

Dont work as expected

Firmware update doesnt work . Also the app say the latest firmware are 4.05 but the hardware already have the version 4.1

No worky

I have the obdlink mx cant get it to work with my iPhone 5c... :-/

Mx

I have a mx and would like to use it with my iPod. What gives with the wifi support only ???

Nice App, has bugs

I love this app! It works great most of the times, but a lot of times it auto disconnects from the OBDLink MX WiFi. Please fix this so that it stays connected till I turn off the car.

Awesome

Just got my device. Works great and no problems so far. I would definitely recommend the device to others.

Great app

Love it, work great with my OBDLink MX Wi-Fi, I have no troubles connecting to it, but wish I know what everything meet so I can understand it more maybe some kinda manual out there??
