    Compared to the $20 OBD2 readers, this one wasn't very helpful. It was good fortune that a friend gave me the adapter for no charge, and I just needed to pay for the subscription. I had hoped it could identify srs codes with the subscription, but it couldn't. I understand now why my friend gifted it to me. It's more sensible to purchase an inexpensive OBD2 reader for the cost of a 1-year subscription. However, with the cheaper option, you won't have to pay again unless it malfunctions.

    Oh, I am so disappointed! I really thought this app and scanner would be great for me and my BMW. I was hoping it would provide us with what we needed to ease the natural wear and tear of owning a BMW. But alas, it was not to be. The live data it displayed was way off, and you know how important first impressions are. It lost my trust right from the start, and I doubt I'll ever get it back. The app looks nice on the surface, but using it feels like something is missing. And don't even get me started on the coding descriptions; they might as well be in a foreign language. What a letdown!

    I am using the Carly Universal adapter and the full version of the app, but I am very disappointed. The main issue is with connecting it to my car. The connection keeps dropping, and it takes a long time to establish a connection every time. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, changing settings, but it still disconnects frequently. It's frustrating to spend time in the car trying to make it work, draining the battery or wasting gas. The app also takes a long time to run and doesn't switch smoothly between OBD2 and BMW codes. The interface is confusing, although you can eventually navigate it. There are unnecessary aspects on the screen like savings information and an irrelevant warning message.

    Great news! Everything's sorted out now. I had purchased the full version a few years back, then updated to the latest one and followed the migration steps provided on their website but ran into issues. I reached out to Carly for assistance, however, didn't receive any reply. This left me with a useless app and seemingly $60 down the drain. But it's all good now, the problem has been fixed. Appreciate the help!

    This app used to be really great, not flawless but definitely worth the money. But now, even though you pay quite a bit, they still ask for more money. They used to give code descriptions, but now they want you to pay extra for that service. It feels like something free apps would do, which is unacceptable when I've already spent over $60 on a one-year subscription. Over the years, the interface has gotten worse too. It keeps getting more complicated with added layers just to do basic tasks.

    The tool works fine, but the way you navigate it is just awful. The prices are for a whole year, which is crazy considering you also need to purchase an adapter separately. When you go to the main screen, it tries to predict if there's a problem code, but it doesn't seem accurate. It's more likely based on how long it's been since you last scanned your vehicle.
