    Just bought an OBD2 Wifi Scanner & downloaded DashCommander for iPhone



    Seems pretty cool, fast response rate & customisable

    Anyone else know of any other good OBD2 iPhone apps?

    Oh..... do you need anything else for this to work or just the iPhone and the App ?

      Do you mean DashCommand? Website / iTunes

      £34.99 for the app, do you think it's worth it?

      Do you have a link to the OBD2 WiFi Scanner you got?

          You need the App and an OBD2 Wifi dongle

          I got this one: EiioX WIFI WLAN OBD2 Code Reader Scanner

          There are apps you can get for free as well though, rather than DashCommand

          Yes sorry, DashCommand
          I think if you were gonna be using the app permanently in your car (think iPad / iPod touch built into the dash) it would be worth it, as its pretty cool because you can use a skin editor on your PC to design a dash with your own images etc, and there's also a marketplace where you can download skins for free, which is where I got the Citroen Racing one from

          If you have your iDevice jailbroken you can of course get away without paying £34.99 - but I wouldn't condone that!

                  No problem

                  You can get cheaper WIFI scanners than the one I got, but they'll probably have to come from china which means a longer wait, the one I got ships through Amazon so next day delivery

                      Good stuff - the bluetooth ones won't work on IOS devices though, because Apple.
