Windows Phone 8 App

**Orchide** · 03-08-2013, 03:26 AM

Have been developing an OBD2 app for WP8 devices that will be released in a week or so. Only waiting for a live review certification date from Microsoft.

- The app supports live OBD engine data with dashboard screens.
- Read and clear Fault Codes
- Fuel consumption tracking
- And a lot more...

Nice job! how does it interface to the car, and do you need beta testers?

Standard obd2 Bluetooth adapter. The beta phase is already done. Will publish the app as soon as possible.

Much coolness - any particular one you recommend?

Naah, not really.

Have tried both the exlusive ones and the cheap china ebay ones and both works.
Just make sure the obd2 adapter supports bluetooth.

Like this one for example.

I found it in the Windows store. Two of the reviewers says that it cannot pull codes?
Can it? Are you going to do that? Because that's what would make it for me.
The only other OBD WP8 reader cannot read codes currently either.

There is currently a bug in the reading function. Fixed already. We are currently finalizing the next update and it will probably be released within a week.
