Comments on VESC Tool for Android

★★★★★ David morrison · Jul 4, 2021
This works amazingly. The only request is can you please allow notifications and choice of which amd interval of them. As if you have a smartwatch, you can get kms, range, battery to show on your watch.
★★★★★ Felipe Müller · Aug 27, 2021
Does it work with usb cable? VESC that I use has no BLE
★★★★★ Austin Gee · Aug 28, 2024
Unfortunately, 6.05 Android version doesn't connect to my device anymore as of August 19, 2024. "Could not read firmware version." Is there a way to fix this in current version or downgrade my firmware on the android VESC Tool app to 6.02? 8/27 UPDATE: This update/patch fixed this issue. Thank you!!!
★★★★☆ Carl Gray · Feb 13, 2023
There are many complete tutorials to help walk you through this grenade filled. I personally have bricked a $300 lockbox unity and $315 flip sky. It is not very forgiving I loaded bootloader and recorded my Unity but the flip sky is a wrap.
★★★★★ Mike Duvall · Aug 29, 2025
This is an amazing tool for the technical person using VESC based motor controllers.
★★☆☆☆ G Er · Oct 7, 2024
Well I've seen it work on other vehicles and bikes and stuff, but I haven't been able to get the one that I bought to work, yet I haven't gotten ahold of anybody to try to help me, so it's not that easy just to do on your own mine still says update software and connect, and I can't connect to update software firmware sorry
★☆☆☆☆ GPeter7 DIY mods · Aug 29, 2024
By updating the app from 6.2 to 6.5 my board with Tronic250R started to behave really weird, #1 simple stop doesn't work anymore, #2 now at 10mph the push-back kicks in. I did a new setup from scratch, but that didn't help, I also ref lashed the firmware and did the setup again, but the pushback at 10 mph still there. #3 Also, I tried to activate a simple stop on my other VESC board, but it doesn't work either, and I know for sure that on 6.2 was working fine before upgrading to 6.5
