BAFX Products WiFi OBDII Reader/Scanner for iOS Devices

Works well with my iPhone through wifi. Supports a lot of protocols. Still exploring but I like the build quality and seems to work well.

Used with Alfaobd to connect to my 2017 Ram 2500. Works great and easy to ise

Purchased the iOS version that comes with WiFi and Bluetooth. Ever since iOS 13, Apple only allows items with 4.0 Bluetooth to work. This item is 3.0 Bluetooth which is compatible with Android only.The item does not come with an app however, Installation was easy. Insert the device into Odb2 slot, turn car on, wait for lights to flash and connect it to your phone’s WiFi.Keep in mind also that when connected via WiFi you will not be able to connect to the internet. It is for this that the Bluetooth version is better in my opinion.There are are numerous apps to use on the AppStore. I am currently using Car Scanner which is free with an option to purchase which removes ads.Android store has an app called torque which is very nice but unavailable in iOS.The unit is very responsive and works great in my 2015 Mazda CX-5. It’s about 4 inches x 2 inches and may be left in the slot permanently. It basically disappears and is unnoticeable when installed.It reads speed, rpms and has live data. It also displays trouble codes and has the option to erase them. If a code is found simply do a google search for a description.It can also inform you if your car will pass an emissions test. I really like the tool and overall it’s a must have for all cars.

Work perfectly

I bought this because I was too lazy to take my car to autozone after a check engine light was coming on and off for a week. This product was very easy to use and the instruction booklet was straightfoward. I love that I can both scan codes and reset codes right from my phone!My only complaint is that it uses WiFi rather than Bluetooth, but that's a pretty minor complaint. You will also need a 3rd party app in order to receive data from the reader. I downloaded OBD Fusion. This reader is specifically compatible with iOS, make sure you have an iPhone or something!If anyone is having trouble, follow these steps:1. Plug reader into OBD2 port2. Turn car to "ON" but do not turn it over! Engine should not be running.3. Go to wifi settings on your iPhone/iPad/Mac and find the OBDII network.4. Connect to the network, more details and troubleshooting can be found in booklet5. Go to the app you installed and run a scan for codes!And if anyone was wondering, my check engine light was due to advanced timing somewhere in the engine. After researching, I discovered it was because I had forgotten to get an oil change for far too long. Oops :( at least it was a cheap and easy fix. If I had taken it to the dealer I have no doubts they would have sold me a ton of stuff I didn't need.

Compact size fits the motorcycles and cars I work on easily and pairs to my iPhone quickly without fuss. Still learning all the features but so far I think it’s a great tool
