Outstanding – worked for Jeep and BMW
Easy to use, just plug it in. Worked for my 2025 Jeep Gladiator and 2020 BMW M2. On the Gladiator I reset the halogen lights to LED and on the BMW I was able to “register” my new battery. Saved me alot of money from paying dealer. Works with JScan (iPhone) on the Jeep and with BimmerLink on the BMW. Recommended.

Great functionality and ease of use
Wow. These are so much better than the old strictly DTC code readersI was able to easily check and monitor the short term and long term fuel trims (STFT/LTFT) on my son’s car which enabled troubleshooting of a persistent P0071 too lean condition.I use it with the CAR SCANNER PRO app which can be had for free or upgraded to pro like I did for a one time payment of like $15.So many parameters can be monitored and added to a custom dashboard so you can watch them live even.

Very functional, easy to use, nice to have the info at your fingertips on CarPlay
I am using this in a 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 3.0 LZO diesel and the ODB Fusion app on my iphone. I am very happy with this setup. I am now able to see when the truck is in regen as well as exhaust temperatures right on the CarPlay screen. In addition to these PIDs, I can see a bunch of other info from the computer. The app is very adjustable to see different features on the screen. The scanner provides a ton of information. Setup was fairly easy as well. Recommend!

Plugs in and works with free reader app
Works week with Ram Promaster 1500 van. Took a bit to get it connected, but after that reliable. Doesn’t seem to drain the battery to leave in all the time. Would be nicer if it had an altitude reading, my last one did and I didn’t realize that wasn’t a standard engine reading. Use it for a digital speedometer on 2019 van

Works well with BimmerCode and Re-Coding a Mini R56 ECU
So I used this device to re-code the ECU/ECM on my 2013 Mini Cooper (R56). For that purpose it worked great. I was able to edit the ECU and unlock a number of features. For example, in the stock configuration double clicking and then holding the unlock button on the remote will wind the windows down from the key fob. However there’s no way to roll the windows back up from the fob. I was able to change the roll down function to pressing and holding unlock just once, and enabled the window roll up feature by pressing and holding the lock button on the fob. I was also able to disable the seatbelt chime for the passenger front seat since that’s where my dog sits and it was incredibly annoying to have that going off the whole time she was up front.Next, I was able to enable some cool lighting features. For example, I enabled a module in BimmerCode that keeps my fog lights on while the high beams are on or while they’re flashed. I was also able to turn off hot and cold bulb warnings for a couple of lights (I have a modded rear bumber with fog lights from the JCW so I needed this to prevent errors from showing).Finally, I made a few changes for quality of life. I turned off the seatbelt chime for the driver seat since I always wear it and the constant reminder was just a little annoying. I enabled the option to automatically fold in the mirrors when locking the car, enabled the mirror to tilt downwards when putting the car in to reverse, adjusted the digital speedometer to show an accurate measurement instead of the slightly modified number BMW shows with the factory settings, and a few other relatively simple changes like that.I never had any issues with connectivity or any other problems with the Veepeak device. It worked flawlessly through all of this re-coding. From what I understand this device will also work with apps like “Torque” where you can connect to a tablet and show gauges like coolant temp, oil pressure, etc., right through the tablet. I believe you can also read codes through it as well with the right app as BimmerCode is able to clear any codes with every re-code. So there’s a wide range of what’s available to you with this device as long as you get the right apps. From what I’ve seen in my personal experience, there’s no reason to buy the more expensive options when the majority of your costs are going to come from the app purchases you’ll need to make anyway. Also, some people have complained that the Bluetooth devices or Bluetooth low energy devices like this have a problem with data transfer speed. I personally didn’t see a problem there. Re-coding was quite fast and I doubt the WiFi versions are any faster as I believe the bandwidth bottleneck is with the ECU/ECM and not with the transfer protocol itself (Bluetooth/BLE/WiFi).

It works perfectly!
I have a 2019 Toyota Prius LE and I bought this product to check the condition and life expectancy on my hybrid battery. My car has 114k miles on it. I had to download the DR Prius app to use it and if you want to run the battery and life expectancy tests you have to pay $13.99. It took a little time to connect but it worked great. I highly recommend this product.

Car data enthusiast awesomeness
Must have tool for getting vital temps, like transmissions for drain and fills. I bought paid versions of 2 apps and the one that works the best and is easier to use is Car Scanner Pro. Awesome tool for the car data enthusiasts.

J’ai acheté ce petit boîtier OBD pour mieux comprendre les voyants qui s’allument sur la voiture de ma compagne et la mienne ( Ford.Focus et Peugeot 207 ), et je suis vraiment impressionné par sa simplicité d’utilisation. Il se branche en quelques secondes sur la prise OBD et se connecte en Bluetooth sans aucun problème, aussi bien avec mon smartphone Android que sur la tablette iOS de ma compagne.✅ Points positifs :Connexion rapide et stable, pas de déconnexion intempestive.Compatible avec plusieurs applications de diagnostic (Torque, Car Scanner, etc.).(Certaines applis peuvent être payantes.)Permet de lire et d’effacer facilement les codes défauts.Donne accès à plein d’infos en temps réel : température moteur, consommation, vitesse, etc.Compact, il tient dans la boîte à gants sans souci.👉 En résumé, c’est un accessoire indispensable pour surveiller l’état de sa voiture et éviter les mauvaises surprises chez le garagiste. Pour le prix, c’est vraiment top. Je recommande à 100 % !

Prodotto ben fatto, stabile nella connessione e facile da usare con le app OBD. Per i PID standard funziona senza problemi ed è comodo per controlli veloci sulla macchina.

Product works great, straightforward, and easy to connect. One thing I wasn’t expecting was a paid option for the app. The free version works fine for me though no ads. Fit snuggly. Blue light stays on when cars’s off so you can’t leave it plugged in 24/7. I particularly like how you can set up a screen to monitor specific things like coolant temperature. And oil pressure. You can also record live data and play it back.
