I mean it works, sorta...it doesn't give you the correct boost readings. when at idle, it should read zero, when normal driving it goes into the positive and when boosting it's supposed to go in the negative. this doesn't do that. it reads 0.00 when boosting and 15psi when normal driving. hell it reads 8psi at idle! I paid over $100 for this whole setup and it's not even accurate. you can't sell a faulty product like this. fix this app and push an update before a class action lawsuit falls.

This app works well for basic fault code reading and sensor values. Be aware that it's useless unless you pay the 34.99. The app shouldn't really have a free listing on the store since it's primary use case is paywalled. It would be much more honest to list the app as paid upfront. It's sister app (bimmercode) also requires an expensive separate payment to be useful. Combined with the cost of the Bluetooth obd reader, it's less attractive than some dedicated scan tools these days.

A brilliant, must have app for any BMW owner. Simple to use with a lot of sensor options. You can view and clear error codes, including non visible ones and history. View DPF and request regens, and view battery details with the ability to register a new battery. Not quite BMW ISTA / INPA / Standard Tools level, but good functionality for not too high a cost.
