To use Car Scanner, you'll need a compatible OBD2 ELM327 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Bluetooth 4.0 (Bluetooth LE) adapter. These devices connect to your car's diagnostics socket, allowing your smartphone to access the car's diagnostics. Recommended adapter brands include OBDLink, Kiwi 3, V-Gate, Carista, LELink, and Veepeak. Be cautious with cheaper Chinese clones marked as v.2.1, as they may have connectivity issues and other bugs.
Please note that the capabilities of Car Scanner depend on the sensors supported by your vehicle's ECU. If a feature isn't available, it's because the data isn't provided by your car's system. Additionally, be aware that using substandard adapters might cause connectivity problems or even affect your car's engine stability.
For the best experience, we recommend using genuine ELM327 adapters or those from recommended brands to ensure reliable and stable performance.
