Live OBD-II diagnostics for iPhone
Connect to a BLE ELM327-style adapter, watch live engine data, record diagnostic sessions, and review issues with AI-assisted summaries built around real OBD-II readings.
Features
OBD Diagnostics keeps the workflow focused: connect, read what matters, record the session, then export or review the results.
Scan for compatible BLE OBD-II adapters, initialize ELM327 sessions, read VIN, adapter protocol, battery voltage, stored codes, and pending codes.
Watch RPM, speed, temperatures, pressures, and other selected Mode 01 PIDs with gauges, metric tiles, and rolling graph history.
Save drive or idle sessions with timestamped samples, vehicle details, adapter metadata, codes, notes, and location or elevation samples when enabled.
Generate diagnostic summaries from recorded session data using Apple on-device models when available or your custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Surface selected dashboard signals on the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, and a CarPlay live data view when the unlocked features are available.
Create session PDFs and share diagnostic records at your request so readings and notes can move with the repair conversation.
Workflow
Use demo data to learn the app or test a flow, then connect to a real adapter when you are ready. The app includes recovery handling for flaky clone adapters and a graceful disconnect path for cleaner sessions.
Unlock
The app supports an ad-supported build. The Ad Removal purchase removes ads and unlocks enhanced data features such as real CarPlay support, Lock Screen Live Activities, and Dynamic Island data.
Important Notice
OBD Diagnostics is not a certified repair, inspection, emissions-compliance, or safety-certification device.
Confirm diagnostic trouble codes and live readings with appropriate service procedures, especially for safety-critical, emissions, or warranty decisions.
Do not interact with the app in a way that distracts from driving. Use CarPlay and Live Activities only where safe and lawful.
Clearing diagnostic codes may affect readiness monitors or inspection results. Follow applicable local regulations before clearing codes.
Download OBD Diagnostics for iPhone and turn adapter readings into usable sessions, summaries, and exports.
