Wont unlock after paying
Paid for a year subscription. App will not unlock so I can run a full in depth scan. Keeps going back to the subscription screen when I try and then freezes. Dev has basically stolen my money.

Quirky
As an Apple user this app is a waste of time.
★★★★ KelceyB 12/4/2020 v1.6.4
STILL UPDATE ISSUES WITH THE DOWNLOAD
THIS APP IS MORE HASSLE THAN IT IS WORTH.. MY TIME IS VALUABLE AND YOU CANNOT EVEN GET THE UPDATE TO WORK CORRECTLY...
SERIOUSLY THE ONLY APP I’VE EVER HAD THIS ISSUE WITH...

Won’t connect to car.
Have only ever got it to connect to the car once. Will connected to the adapter every time no problem but never to the car. Other app I tried has had absolutely no problem every time.

نرجو معالجة الامر
التطبيق كلش راقي وحلو وعاشت ايدكم طبعا بس اكو مشكلة رغم فحص السيارة نوع سورنتو امريكي بلجهاز وتصفير الاخطاء الا ان التطبيق يقرا الاخطاء ويحتفظ فيها عند البحث عن الاخطاء مرة اخرى نرجو حل المشكلة بعدم ظهور الاكواد القديمة في البرنامج ..
الامر الاخر الذي يقلقني مستوى الوقود البنزين قراءاته خاطئة فهو يعتمد على حساس طوافة البنزين اذا كان حساس طوافة الوقود فيه مشاكل فالقراءة خاطئة
باقي الامر عاشت ايدكم اكثر من روعة وينافس بجدارة اجهزة الكشف المتطورة

با اپدیت های جدید متاسفانه خطا ها رو نمیتونه شناسایی کنه ولی میتونه بدون شناسایی خطا اونا رو پاک کنه تا چراغ چک خاموش شه

Muy buena aplicación
★★★★★ 앱좀 잘만들어주세요 6/27/2024 v2.7.27
good app but unfortunately useless
Maybe this is a good app and you can find a lot of information from the app but unfortunately this is useless for everyday use since you have to open the app and wait for the connection. Look at ZUS app. it’s connecting automatically I forgot about it but it reports automatically. If you can include auto connection function, this will be best app! I don’t believe autoconnection is not supported in iOS. ZUS app is connecting automatically without noticing me so I forgot about it actually but it reported after el whenever I drove.
p.s. you can see bimmerlink can connect automatically to wireless OBD adapter but you can’t.

Vacuum/Boost reading
How do I get Infocar to read vacuum and boost? I have an issue with my turbo set up and literally downloaded the app to monitor the boost. Please inform.
★★★★★ Hail Ants 8/10/2023 v2.6.8
Not free, full of ads
Maybe the paid version is ok, but this free version is crippled and full of nag screens and ads. It should say so in the description.
I recommend Car Scanner ELM OBD. Full featured and actually free.
