DashCommand - OBD-II Gauges App Comments & Reviews

DashCommand - OBD-II Gauges Positive Reviews

Works fine - but repeated “this license has expired”Like the app which I’ve had for 4 years now on my iPhone. Just the past 2 months been getting a irritating error message stating “this license has expired” even though I’ve paid for the license and it’s not expired. Every time this happens I have to go to AppStore and click open Dashcommand to then see the same error message, but then try again AppStore to see the Dashcommand icon which says UPDATE and it downloads some update and the error goes away. Fix this soon guys please!!!.Version: 4.8.3

Great app if you understand the language.By trade I’m an electrician. With this app I’ve been able to identify problems, monitor and log different systems in real time and also save and export the files via email. When I went to buy the extra package for the make which my vehicle associates with, it advised that for my model it was not necessary to spend the extra money as it provided no benefits that weren’t already available with the current version of the app. Now it’s one thing to be able to hear your car talk to you and it’s completely different whether you understand what it’s saying to you. I’ve saved thousands of dollars in mechanic fees by researching how to identify issues and how to fix them. The app just gives you access to what a mechanic is given access to when diagnosing an issue. But the app won’t make you or anybody for that matter a mechanic or able to understand and solve their own problem. At least it can help you to not get ripped off by a mechanic with ghost problems. But it won’t keep you getting ripped off on the service fee for the quality of service received..Version: 4.6.19

Works as advertisedMany others have explained why this app is worth buying. I'm writing to contradict two negative reviews. One said you can't get back to the main menu after activating a dashboard without shutting down the app and restarting it. Not so. Just tough the screen for two seconds and a menu will appear that allows you to return to the main screen. Second, someone said it doesn't work with vehicles after 2014. Also not true. Works fine with our 2016 Subaru Forester. The database that comes with the app doesn't include vehicles newer than 2014, but you can manually input model information and parameters for any newer vehicle. One minor quibble: the gauges on a couple of the dashboards are too small to be legible on an iPhone 6, but you can access the same information in other ways. A fine app. Works flawlessly with Amazon's recommended Foseal OBD II WiFi dongle..Version: 4.6.19

Really Impressed, actually works on a BMWI purchased a Kiwi3 and after finding out the app designed for the unit didn't even work, I gave this a try since it was given such good reviews online. All I can say is I'm glad I didn't buy something else and I'd happily do it again. This app works, connects instantly with the reader, and gives me every bit of info I could have wanted to know about my 2007 BMW X3. I was worried since it was a beemer I'd have issues with some of the features actually working, but I was pleasantly surprised when literally everything worked without any customization or hassle. This is the one and only app you want or need for a Bluetooth OBD2 reader..Version: 4.6.19

Good tool and toyThis app does a decent scan but as is it really works great for before and after installs or changes to tune. It will give a before and after hp 60' 1/8m and 1/4m times with speed too. All sorts of cool gauge packs available too. I bought along time ago to be a general scan tool but my current use is for tuning on my turbo BMW, I had no idea before purchasing I would be using to check performance upgrades on my personal car, but I sure am stoked with it's vast usefulness and info. If you tune your car or truck and don't have this app your missing out on real info....Version: 4.6.19

Great utility!This app is great even if you’re not mechanically inclined. If my check engine light comes on, I can run a quick scan and Google the codes myself. Even if I can’t fix things myself, I can at least make sure that the mechanics aren’t trying to hustle me. Let’s face it, many do. Many times the engine light has come on because of faulty sensors that are usually easy enough to replace on your own. Save yourself hundreds of dollars and use the app instead. It has a variety of other features you can employ if you’re more technically proficient. It’s been a great ally..Version: 4.8.11

Great app for monitoring vehicle under all kinds of conditions!Awesome App for monitoring a wide variety of metrics under a wide variety of conditions. Helps me adjust my driving technique to optimize performance, economy, and situational utility. It helps me increase fuel efficiency and reduce ware on high ware parts (tires, brakes, etc). It also helps me understand the root cause of “problems” to take the guess work out of repairs. With a little experimenting, and adjust the PID calculations, I have achieved a 22% improvement in fuel cost. Through driving technique, purchase of optimum fuel for the conditions, and monitoring real time metrics..Version: 4.8.11

Re: DashCommandThis is probably my favorite app, and I only bought it a few days ago. I own a '03 Chevy s10 4.3L 4WD zr2, and this app does what I need and more. MAF and MAP readings, average mpg, hp-torque curves, intake and coolant temps, and a ton more. I was torn between Torque, Auto Doctor, and DashCommand, and I think I chose wisely. I noticed Palmer Engineering has a solid template between smartphone and pc devices, so after doing research on other programs such as PCMSCAN and ScanXL, DashCommand seemed like the most well-rounded. Being able to configure my own PIDs is a game changer. I'm a mechanical engineering students, so by default this stuff is cool to me. Worth it..Version: 4.6.19

Good app but expensiveI love this app, it does what I want it to do, it works on many vehicles, even my 2013 bmw which is wonderful, I used scanPro which is their professional scan software, it would not work on my bmw, can you figured that out. This is kind of expensive, but less then Carly bmw app, whom will try to make you pay for updates, not me. I used this app on cars I'm thinking of buying, to checkout timing issues, compression issues and wear/tear on engine without carrying around my laptop with all my professional scanning software..Version: 4.8.5

OBDLink MX+ worksOriginally I though this did not work with my OBDLink MX+, but it does. I think it may have been the order that I started things. My phone was was probably not connected to it. Temporarily updating to 4 stars. I need to actuall use it to see if it is worth 5 stars. Looks pretty good though. Wish it would automatically get the settings needed to calculate mileage. It wants engine displacement. I have a 3.5L V6 ecoboost. I would assume 3.5 L, as that is the spec, but if so, it should be able to know that. Pretty common vehicle and engine..Version: 4.8.0

It's good, not greatFor a paid app, I expect more frequent updates like bug fixes, or UI improvements, but it hasn't been updated in about a year at this point. The interface is not great. As others have pointed out, getting back to the main menu isn't intuitive. Having to manually enter your car's details for models after 2014 is also lame. I honestly couldn't say that I'd recommend this app to friends. I would suggest spending the extra money on Blue Driver. I would probably change my mind if the developer would give this app some attention..Version: 4.6.19

ConvinienceThe overall ease of use and the amount of information gained about my vehicle was well worth the cost! I have my own personal diagnostics tool in the palm of my hand for a fraction of the cost. It lets me virtually know anything about my car in real time, read AND clear trouble codes, fuel trims, etc. I have used this many times on my aging BMW and solve many issues! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who may be considering!.Version: 4.6.19

Dash Command top valueWhere else can you have the capability of a 5k scanner for less then a “C” note? For trouble shooting and monitoring you can’t beat the simplicity of Dash Command. I had a trouble prone Dodge Magnum and the dash command live feed back allowed me to properly diagnose my vehicle in order for me to pass smog. I’m sure if I took it to a repair shop it would have cost me hundreds of dollars to have it repaired. All I can say is “THANK YOU DASH COMMAND” I will recommend you to everyone that will listen to me..Version: 4.8.0

Talk with your CarThis is an amazing tool to know exactly what your car’s computer is doing, in real-time. It requires hardware as well, and the quality of the hardware matters. I used cheap Chinese elm clones and the performance of this app was terrible. I purchased a Palmer Engineering OBD-II WiFi interface, and the performance is stellar. I can read temperatures, RPMs and other info in real times. It update fluidly, multiple times a second..Version: 4.8.11

Best OBD2 App.I could only give it 5 stars. I recommend this app. It does the same and more than the hardware scanner tools. Compared to other apps, this is the one to choose. It may be a little difficult to set up the wifi interphase because you have to manually enter the IP and router info but it is well worth this extra effort. I really like this app. Hope the developers don’t change it..Version: 4.8.9

Great appI think this is a great app. My car originally came with a very minimal gauge set and I’m really happy with what’s available on it. If I did have one knock on this app, it would be making custom gauges on the web. It seems like a very difficult process, if you don’t know how it works. I spent many weeks trying to get something together for my car and although it works OK, I feel like if there was a better set of instructions, it would be a lot more user-friendly..Version: 4.6.19

Great app but 1 flaw IMOSo far I’ve really enjoyed the app. I used to have a pioneer app radio and there is an app that allows you to put this on the big screen there. But it’s not offered for standard Apple car play enabled devices. I’d love to throw a few extra gauges on the big screen while I’m tuning or at the track. Still a super handy app and many folks may disagree with the CarPlay option ding..Version: 4.6.19

Everything I hoped it would be!This is the first app I have ever paid for, and it continues to be worth the money. Quick to connect, and very easy to configure and use. This has saved me from needing to buy more expensive computer programs to view my outputs. You can view live read outs for most all engine sensors that you don’t even have gauges for in your car. Worth every penny..Version: 4.6.19

Awesome appI was a little skeptical at first but went ahead and took a chance. This app does exactly what it states, check and clear codes observe engine functions in real time. It's also compatible with most obdii dongles out there. With downloadable dashboards specifically for your vehicle is a plus being that I have a diesel. Great buy I've had and used it everyday for a little over a year now!.Version: 4.6.19

Works for me!I purchased this app because I needed to check the cmpret on my 1997 Chevrolet truck. You do need to purchase the extra pid group to read it, but it works. The only problem I've run in to is if you go to the gauge page and swipe left or right to see other gauges, you can't get back to dashboard without force closing the app and reopening it. Decent app, though!.Version: 4.8.2

Everything I need and moreWell worth the money! Interfaces are easy to use and provide so much info! There are add-on purchases available, but not required. In fact, when I went to see the add-one available for my Toyota they told me I didn't need it, and I wouldn't get much more than I already had instead of trying to push the sale!!.Version: 4.6.19

Used to work wellI have a Wi-Fi OBD-II adapter that I use with this app. This app has a lot of functionality for a free app, I have been satisfied with it. However today I opened it up and I get an error that says it is expired. It then closes the app, and does not give me any options to do anything with it. No updates are available on the App Store for it. Right when I needed to check why my check engine light came on, and it fails, and I just used it about a week ago..Version: 4.8.0

Great AppApp has saved me a bunch of money, more than the cost of the app the first time I used it on a 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser to pull codes and diagnose problems. I've been playing with it on a couple other vehicles and it's amazing the amount of data you can monitor. I'm going to use it on my Camry Hybrid to monitor fuel mileage because I think the car's mileage figures are off..Version: 4.6.19

Great appThis is a great app, and for $10, as long as you acquire the appropriate OBD2 output device, gives all the information anyone could ask for. Would definitely recommend for anyone who is a car guru, do-it-yourself person, or anyone who simply wants to see all their car's information for recreational or diagnostic purposes..Version: 4.6.19

Hot stuffThis app does as advertised which is really cool. The online documentation is fine and I’m not aware of a truly competing app for iPhone/iPad. That said, it appears to use a lot of juice. I run it plugged into the charge port and after a short while my iPhone 6s is quite hot. This is probably inevitable for real-time monitoring and computing across many OBDII and iPhone sensors. But it concerns regarding possible adverse impact on battery life..Version: 4.6.19

Great App forgot I bought it years agoWorks very well. Wish the DTC function was like OBD fusion and need to add ability to save my custom gauges to cloud to download after all the work into custom gauges. I know you can do dashboard customizing and upload but need to make gauges/pages able to be backed up, unless that’s hidden somewhere.Version: 4.8.5

Needs CarPlay SupportVery nice app and provides a lot of metrics but I took away one star because it’s been out for a while but the developers haven’t added support for CarPlay. This would be perfect if we can monitor the vehicle on the vehicle’s infotainment touch screen instead of having to refer to the iPhone. Please devs! Make it finally happen!.Version: 4.8.15

Great App, All the Info you need - QuicklyApp works great. Gives the info you need quickly. The only issue is that it sometimes takes a minute to connect to my OBD wireless interface, but I think that is a hardware issue, not the app. Recommend!.Version: 4.8.15

Incredible app. Works wellConnects easily and starts collecting data. Incredible amounts of data. Not always obvious or not possible to go back to previous or menu screen. But overall incredible and impressive. Wow. Edit: hold down finger on any screen for 2 seconds - return to any menu.Version: 4.6.19

Fun toolIt provided useful information but you really have to buy the extra package. It would be helpful if it came with a better tutorial and better screenshots of each dashboard so I knew what to pick. Explanation of what it’s measuring and the meaning. Might help stay ahead of problems..Version: 4.8.15

Pretty good appThis app is pretty good able to monitor multiple things track down problems it tells me I’ll be Obd2 codes. Which is very handy I am the best part about it is you can take the scanner to multiple vehicles and diagnose the problem on the side of the road if you need to.Version: 4.8.9

Better than the restI have tried many of these apps. None are perfect but Dashcommand is by far the best for my needs. I am a auto tech. and after spending many thousands of dollars on diagnostic equipment over the years, I feel I get a tremendous amount of information for the price..Version: 4.6.19

Has helped me greatlyUsing the app, I was able to locate sensor problems with my older truck and repair them myself, which is waayyyy cheaper than a shop! I did have some problems navigating inside the software at first, but that's nothing. This app is a really powerful tool to have!.Version: 4.6.19

One Man’s OpinionApp works pretty good. I’d like to see an update that would add gears to the trans mode with automatics in mind but it works well with manuals. The fuel mileage is more accurate than the onboard computer of my 2014 Ram truck. You do need a WiFi OBD2 device which some come with programming but mine didn’t hence why I purchased this app..Version: 4.6.19

Ok rewritten review hereApp is working fine although it has no data for any Honda vehicles. When I connect it, then open some window I can not go back to menu window (home window). Can that be fixed along with adding Honda vehicle datas? Update: it’s still just ok but kinda disappointed that I don’t think it has Transmission Fluid Temperature... please update it for ATF Temp then I’ll change my rating for the device/App!.Version: 4.8.11

Great AppThis is a great and simple app. Easy to read gauges with more info that you'll probably need. I needed something simple to read codes and reset, but it does a lot more. I know there are bigger apps that may be more specialized but this is well worth the money. Saved me a lot of time..Version: 4.6.19

OkayOkay app. Works for a short period of time until it crashes and can’t be used at the opening of the screen. Takes uninstall and reinstall to fix momentarily until it stops working 4 or 5 uses later. Would like this to be fixed otherwise I won’t be able to use it anymore :(.Version: 4.8.13

Excellent alternative to expensive scan toolsFor $10 plus $10 for vehicle specific dealer level PID access a huge savings over scan tools that cost hundreds or thousands of dollars. Very powerful tool for vehicle maintenance and trouble shooting. Saved me hundreds of dollars in shop charges. Love it..Version: 4.6.19

OBDWork very well !!!.Version: 4.6.19

Rev-It-Up!Great App.! works as described. Helped diagnose some issues not known. Awesome!.Version: 4.6.19

Works quite wellI am using it on a 1999 Honda CR-V. It works quite nice especially with the iPad. The iPhone looses Bluetooth connection from time to time..Version: 4.8.15

Excellent! Works on iOS 10.3.3 AUTHORS PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE!Excellent! Works on iOS 10.3.3 AUTHORS PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE!.Version: 4.8.15

Solid productKeep the App updated and it pairs wonderfully with my now old PLX kiwi..Version: 4.8.9

Issues with speedMy speed always glitches out and I’ve tried multiple different dash things on the app that I downloaded, any tips to make it work correctly instead of it glitching out?.Version: 4.8.14

DashCommand is Awesome!As long as you have an OBD2 dongle that works, the app works awesome..Version: 4.8.14

GREAT APP, NICE INTERFACEHas been working great over the years ! Only thing is I can’t input the right gear ratios for my 2008 GTI, it says gear 5 must me higher than gear 4, which is not the case ! Hope you can resolve that issue !!.Version: 4.8.12

Not working after io14Have used this app for years with no issues until updating to ios14 now it won’t connect to interface.Version: 4.8.9

Almost perfectWish you folk would adopt the Apple CarPlay interface so your app could be used via newer cars in dash Bluetooth connectivity programs. Aside from that the program has been valuable for years of car ownership. As well it allows for helping others with their car coding issues..Version: 4.8.3

Is this updated for version 14?Is this up-to-date because I cannot connect?.Version: 4.8.9

Works wellI probably use it about 6 times a year for my vehicle and for various friends and family It is however easy to misplace and I may have to order a replacement as mine has gone missing TryingtolearnActual.Version: 4.8.5

Wow!Everything you could want. This is an excellent app for added vehicle info!.Version: 4.8.5

So out of dateI think the UI needs an update. So boring compared to many other apps, and now cars are coming with more advanced computers in the dash so this app could become redundant by 2020. Maybe just cleaning the app up a bit. Allowing it to run in the background would be nice too. Works ok..Version: 4.8.5

AirbagQuestion for the programmers? Will you add the airbag code reader in update? Thanks.Version: 4.6.19

Decent but needs Trans tempThis is a good app but having trans temp would make it 5star. Until then 3 stars.Version: 4.8.3

Is niceI like.Version: 4.8.3

AmazingWorks good. Really happy on how the app works. Would like to see it to be able to Work with apple CarPlay..Version: 4.8.3

Great toolHave it for few hrs now . Use it on all 5 vehicles . And keeps getting updated making easier to use . Would recommend.Version: 4.8.3

Worked wellThis app worked extremely well up until a few months ago when the expiration came up. Updated app and still the same thing. Was one of the best apps up to that point..Version: 4.8.3

Dash commandWhat a great tool for the diy’ers. Always ready to be used. Erase codes, see parameters and performance while you drive. Awesome. This is a true review from a real customer..Version: 4.8.3

Gee wow, first update in two yearsI used to love this app but clearly the developer doesn't. First update in two years.Version: 4.8.0

Excellent OBDII AppI have used DashCmd for a while now and it works amazingly. It has all the dials that I need to keep track of all on a easy to read layout.Version: 4.6.19

Works but not updated anymore??I used it with an inexpensive ELM WiFi. Works well. However, it appears that the app hasn’t been updated in a year? Are you not continually developing??.Version: 4.6.19

Ok but...Decent for basic diagnostics but I have a couple codes that are only available with the GM add on!?!? I see I can add a GM pack for $10 so I may try that..Version: 4.6.19
