Compatibility and Important Considerations
Car Scanner ELM OBD2 supports all OBDII protocols and works with most vehicles manufactured after 2000 (and some as early as 1996). A compatible Wi-Fi or Bluetooth 4.0 (Bluetooth LE) OBD2 ELM327 adapter is required. Recommended adapter brands include Kiwi 3, Viecar, V-Gate, Carista, LELink, and Veepeak. Avoid cheap, generic adapters as they may cause connectivity issues or negatively impact vehicle performance. The app is free to download, with in-app purchases or a subscription to unlock all features. Contact the developer at [email protected] for support. See https://www.carscanner.info/ios-tos/ for terms of use. Remember, the app’s functionality is limited by the data provided by your vehicle’s ECU.
