Get a real scanner for nearly the same price more save yourself the headache of dealing with this app. 1 star until the forced updates stop. I'm so sick of trying to troubleshoot a problem and having to waste 10 minutes updating and/or upgrading (if I'm lucky enough to have service, if I don't, I'm SOL) because "your current version is no longer valid". Completely unacceptable for a $60 app. Also does not work without an Internet connection, another absolute no-go for a diagnostic app.

Very good app when you are dealing with a car that has constant problems this scanner app helps any user diagnose it for you. the only problem about this app is that it needs a way to contact support via video or phone support easily and fast so that users can have support when things are not working.

Update 2024. Auto-renew happened again! Google wont help you. DONT BUY. Auto-renew charges. I think they hope you won't catch it. The app itself is okay, but at what cost!? This is the second time I had auto-renew enabled (not by me) after I downloaded the app. Since I had this happen before, and I was selling the car, I made sure not to have auto-renew, but here we are. I got charged again a year later. You'll have to jump through hoops to get your money back. Never again.
