FIXD OBD2 Scanner

Mind that this only works with the FIXD dongle. Will not work with 3rd party dongles. The good thing about it is that it gives you data in plain English, i.e. it doesn't show you just numbers that only mechanics understand. The downside is that it requires you to create an account and it uploads all your scan data automatically. If you have no Internet connection (e.g. underground parking lot) it will scan but will not show you the results until you have Internet access.

Worth the money. More importantly you become an informed customer. You can troubleshoot the situation before the mechanic sees the car. So, you are not taken by an unscrupulous garage. For me I use it many times...When I was checking out used cars. I was also able to figure out that a gas attendant didn't put the gas cap on correctly. It saved me a trip to the garage. It is a tool, and the more you use the tool the better you will get figuring out a problem.

It worked the first time I used it. Now it refuses to scan. I can see the device via Bluetooth just fine, but the "scan" button just spins then...nothing. So if you buy one of these, do not subscribe. They will take your $99 and run, claiming they "cannot locate a purchase of the app" when you provide the Google Play store receipt. It's been months now and I have no working FIXD scanner and no refund.
