OnTrack - OBD2 Scanner

Trotz des gleichen OBD-Adapters wie vom Entwickler (VGate iCar Pro BLE), schade.

I have not been able to connect since I loaded this app🥲

It works, but I wish it supported more PIDs. Don’t get me wrong this app shows readings on my car screen with some of the desired readings. I would love to see the Air/Fuel Ratio supported if it did I’d give it a 5.

Two dongles later and it worked. Use Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE) OBD2 Fault Code Reader OBDII Code Scanner and it connected and shows info

I use this app for gauges that monitor intake temp, coolant temp, and oil temp on the factory iDrive display while on track. I’ve been looking for a solution to get gauges on the factory iDrive screen and this does exactly that via CarPlay in my 2017 BMW running iDrive 5. App works as needed and as advertised. Devs are great and responsive to feedback. 5/5 would recommend.

No options for showing transmission temperature which is all I want to use it for

I’m convinced this app is a dud or something. I have tried on and off again since release and not once will it connect to any adapter, even an OBDLink MX+. It’s crazy

Yet to find another CarPlay compatible obd based dash. There’s still a few bugs on my end but the overall use of this is simple, informative and problem free. Couple of readings coming in Celsius even tho my settings are set to Fahrenheit. I’m using the recommend vgate icar pro with no issues. Needed to use a separate app to initiate the obd connection for the first time but the process is automatic now. Great app.

There are apps like CarScanner that work with EVs. Is it possible to make a version that focuses more on EV stuff? Battery temp, state of charge, running miles/kWh or km/kWh, etc? This program works beautifully with my Bluetooth OBD dongle and CarPlay. If it had EV measurements, I will buy the full version.

I understand this app is in the development stage, so I will be more lenient upon criticism. The pros: It shows (most) of the values you would commonly need to see on a car or project It connects automatically upon opening the app and has been pretty consistent Everything loads pretty quickly, and updates about every second or two To my understanding, its the only app that allows you to watch your car values on your carplay screen. So it has the edge for first to do it! The cons: There’s a recurring 4$ a month charge to access all the features. There wasnt any mention of this that I saw in advertising nor the immediate app description until I finally got my device to connect. Unexpected, but I understand the app is still under development. Compatibility isnt great. Im no software engineer, only a mechanic, so im sure theres a great effort into trying to make an app that is compatible with every scanner. However, I tried 3 bluetooth obd scanners before I decided to give in and buy the recommended Vgate Icar Pro 4.0le. Also note there was the 4$ monthly charge I had to dish out for all the viewable values after already buying said scanner. After this it took a second to connect and load, but has worked flawlessly since. There isnt many features. Apart from displaying values and changing from Imperial to Metric, and clearing PCM DTCs; theres no light mode, no gauges, or any smaller format windows for carplay. Either the app is open and taking up the entire screen, or it isnt. Like I said; its still under development, and I appreciate the feature to suggest future features, but the monthly charge and trouble I (as well as others) had went through to get it to work had me hoping for a little more, especially with how much the description hyped it up. Anywho, I am glad this app exists, and I applaud the efforts of the author. I will continue to support and use the app and hope for more features as time passes!
