keeps crashing ,like every two minutes,would like refund
★★★★ Vadim Zolotarenko 4/16/2026 v1.12.108
has lack of functionality for its price. there are better apps
★★★★ James Sturgell 4/14/2026 v1.12.108
The free app was a lot better, I was able to see transmission fluid temp and a lot of other PIDS that are all but impossible to see on the paid app. Don't buy, no one has a real fix and the creators have done nothing to fix it.
★★★★ james jaimes 4/10/2026
the scaner was ok but when I try to use the widgets gauges the engine ligts come on and stabilitrac😱
★★★★ Thomas Clelford 4/3/2026 v1.12.108
not good for an EV. Go with a different app if you're checking battery health. Probably fine for petrol
★★★★ Sean G. 4/2/2026 v1.12.108
I think this app is probably great but I couldn't get it to communicate with my OBD reader I got from. Tiktok. That's why I'm giving a 1 star rating. so essentially I bought this app for no reason.
★★★★ Tom Burndrett 4/1/2026 v1.12.108
not able to talk to code reader. downloaded free Torque Diagnostic which worked great.

★★★★ Tim G 2/10/2026 v1.12.108

★★★★ Andy's Garage 2/9/2026 v1.12.108
paid $5 for a stupid scan tool app that won't even show the oil pressure in my car
★★★★ Umang Panchal 2/7/2026 v1.12.108
It is connected to OBD2 scanner for my tata harrier, there is check engine light on the dashboard, but torque pro didn't show anything. Tried multiple times. Later downloaded another app from playstore and it showed the error correctly.
★★★★ Danny Goldbach 2/2/2026 v1.12.108

★★★★ Ene' Baziuk 1/27/2026
Advertised feature doesn't work very well. Sometimes doesn't work. It's supposed to auto clear some trouble codes continuously but it doesn't. I want my money back.
★★★★ Edmond 1/27/2026 v1.12.108
this app doesn't look like it's been updated since before COVID, I'm not even sure the developer is actively updating it and checking it against vehicles 2020 or newer
★★★★ Ivan Castelar 1/22/2026
trash. doesn't work doesn't refund
★★★★ Fred Carriker 1/20/2026 v1.12.108
Old app, plugins not compatible with my Android. says my Android version is too new for the Nissan plugin (my Android is 3yrs old) Grok AI said I needed the plugin to access things associated with my problem. EGT temp and MAF sensor. $5 down the drain. most all of these apps have a pay and see if works upgrade feature!!
★★★★ Frank Qiu 1/14/2026 v1.12.108
Doesn't support Subaru specific ECU data, and refuse to refund. Less powerful than the free App "Car Scanner ELM OBD2"
★★★★★ Jeff Laymon 5/5/2026 v1.12.108
does not show real time and average gas milage like he free version does
★★★★★ Ceysuns Cetin 4/24/2026 v1.12.108
Awesome App other then it keeps resetting itself constantly going back to default. Keep loosing the pre-made realtime info page.
★★★★★ Ben 4/19/2026 v1.12.108
capabilities very limited. This app has not been updated in a long time and what you can do compared to other apps is very weak. it cannot read most modules only the power train. It has no bi-directional controls. I even have the paid version which is not much different than the free one. It's been a disappointment. I have free apps that are better.
★★★★★ M T 4/13/2026 v1.12.108
What has happened? Back up files not working, legacy method doesn't show the right folder on newer androids. I give up. Lost everything after backing up that now won't restore.
★★★★★ Osama Fayek 3/26/2026 v1.12.108

★★★★★ Ben S 3/24/2026 v1.12.108
would give this 5 stars if the floating widget function worked and didn't crash the app.
★★★★★ Spencer Mathews 3/22/2026 v1.12.108
Used to be the gold standard app of its type, but now it's getting pretty long in the tooth. and is basically abandoned. Trips do not reliably record GPS.
★★★★★ Artur Soból 3/8/2026 v1.12.108
Please support Android Auto mode!
★★★★★ Leighton Evans 3/3/2026 v1.12.108
Will not connect to my Toyota ECU even with edited connection strings for Japanese vehicles. Car scanner did first time so I'm deleting torque.
★★★★★ Neal Shireman 3/2/2026 v1.12.108
The app was good 10 years ago, but doesn't seem to have received a proper update in that amount of time. The UI is just bad. Additionally, the store doesn't seem to allow me to refund it. Other than that, the app works, and that's all I can say positive about it.
★★★★★ Daymon Kemp 2/15/2026 v1.12.108
Worked great for years but now keeps crashing when connecting. App just closes itself out. Needs an update.
