BEFORE YOU BUY

Android only — this scanner uses Bluetooth and is compatible with Android phones and tablets only. If you have an iPhone, this scanner is not compatible.

App required — a Bluetooth OBD2 compatible app is needed to read data. We recommend Torque Pro (Google Play Store, approx $6.49 AUD). Many free alternatives are also available.

Vehicle compatibility — works with most petrol and diesel vehicles manufactured from 1996 onwards that have a standard OBD2 port. Some older vehicles, electric vehicles and certain European models may have limited compatibility. If unsure, contact us with your make and model. (Please check your owners manual for compatibility)

Battery drain — leaving any OBD2 scanner permanently plugged in will draw a small amount of current. For vehicles parked for extended periods, we recommend unplugging the scanner. Read our guide on OBD2 scanners and battery drain →
