Comments on OBDLink (OBD car diagnostics) for Android
★★★★☆Paul· Apr 1, 2026
Worked with my MX Professional. The added pid are worth the 15 dollars for a prius but very disappointing that after buying for a 2016 then plugging it into my 2011 it wants me to buy the same thing again. For some silly reason I thought that prius pid purchase would enable functionalities for all prius, but not so.
★★★★★Sam W.· Apr 11, 2026
A simple but good, well working app! It gives general codes and is pretty universal. I got the OBDLink CX for the beeper but with this app, I can also work with the other cars too!
★★★★★Goshring· Jun 21, 2026
This is a great little tool for basic information. It obviously won't help with a giant problem, but for all the things that an average driver runs into, this is a great resource for finding out what's going on.
★★★★★Brian Valentin· May 15, 2026
Was amazing until the latest update. I had multiple dashboards' setup for multiple cars, and now they are all messed up. I can't use half the screen for gauges.
★☆☆☆☆Marius Duna· Jan 29, 2026
One essential thing I cannot do: read total mileage on Rav4 a2 2001. Mileage is essential for old cars.
★☆☆☆☆Michael· Apr 28, 2026
Not at all user-friendly or intuitive. Torque may be abandoned but still has more PIDs and is much easier to navigate. Adding Custom PIDs is unnecessarily complex compared to Torque also with irrelevant field. Not to mention constantly showing "Manufacturer PIDs" for GM which my car isn't and can't be hidden. ++ Expected more from OBDLink. Great hardware, terrible app.
★☆☆☆☆Gerald Rivett· Feb 10, 2026
Next to zero support unless you pay 80 bucks in addition to the cost of the OBDlink. I have not found a way to return this, so I'm out 87 bucks. Good luck!

I was previously able to monitor my water pump RPM and my inverter coolant temperature on a dashboard display now when I go into Peds it says Toyota unavailable WTH!
