Mucking around with dashboards and stuff. Obviously not great when driving as you don't want to be eyeballing a phone, but reads codes and stuff. Seems to be a reasonable amount of development put into the app too.

You can set the gauges to record highest values etc, so in a race car you can check afterwards. Also the gauges can flash when over a certain value. Don't seem to have any audio/alarms though which would be alright, but there is a tiny bit of data lag from the ECU to the phone.

Ideally you'd have it running on a tablet in the dash somewhere if you were serious to use the gauges and not just the CEL checker.

Worth the app + dongle purchase though for some self diagnostics.
