An editorial reading of the saved reviews

An OBD2 scanner with plain-language error code explanations and severity ratings, but the subscription flow is designed so users accidentally agree to a $100-per-year charge without a clear warning.

What users experience

2 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

The best thing for me is how it tells you how serious a problem is and if it's okay to keep driving or not. I also like the live data stuff and how it explains codes in a way that actually makes sense. Being able to clear codes is nice too.

Did you enter your mileage manually? Sucks, this app will decide to spit out randomly generated fugazi mileage numbers for no reason. I constantly go on the app and see added miles to my vehicles that I never drove. This stupid predictive daily mileage algorithm is broken.
