Had a rough start to get this established and working. Been great ever since. I know a VW CC sport. Most of the programming works. There was one for the radio that says it’s compatible, but for whatever reason it doesn’t want to change but other than that, it’s been excellent. I wish it was more clear on its upgrades. Do you have to buy another module? Can you upgrade the software in it and it’s not easy to reach out
Developer Response
Hey there,Thanks for sharing your experience. Sounds like you may have bought our older (white) FirstGen OBDeleven devices which were low and out of stock towards the end of 2023. Please note that these older units only support Android and do not support iOS systems - we try our best to label it thusly on our web-store as well as appoint respective notices on the OBDeleven mobile app too. The latter of which informs users that it only supports newer (black) NextGen devices. Hope that helps you better understand the compatibility of our apps and devices.
Slow

Incredibly low to identify vehicle and very slow scanning. Also, if you don’t do absolutely everything exactly right it will not connect, such as key on engine off, hood popped, etc. meanwhile my topdon topscan connects and scans without issue and in a fraction of the time. Also, if you have ‘24+ VW make sure you really research rather than relying on descriptions on a retailers site before you buy it, as you will be severely limited on what you can actually do due to SFD2 being very restrictive, even though the resellers will lead you to believe it is capable of doing everything under the sun. If they can gets SFD2 working and maybe speed up connection time I’ll revise my rating.
Developer Response
Hello,Thank you for your detailed feedback.We’re sorry to hear that the connection and scanning speed did not meet your expectations. While connection time can vary depending on the vehicle and communication system, it should not be unnecessarily slow. We’d be happy to investigate if you contact our support team with your vehicle details.Regarding 2024+ Volkswagen vehicles, SFD2 is a manufacturer security system that currently cannot be bypassed by third-party diagnostic tools. We appreciate you highlighting this, and we’re continuously working to improve performance and expand supported features where possible.Kind regards,OBDeleven Team
A major bug
HGuzel03
I bought OBDeleven about 2 years ago and have been using it on all of my VW’s with no problem. Have used the live data function numerous times, the quick apps were awesome, HOWEVER. I recently made the switch to an F10 BMW and every time I open the app to scan the car or do whatever, the car cycles itself. So it shuts off the car completely then cycles back to accessory mode. This should not happen, it isn’t normal. Also, the lack of a live data panel is a huge downside. I need to see when the car last did its regeneration, how clogged the dpf is, and various other parameters. PLEASE FIX/ADD THESE FEATURES!!!
Developer Response
We’re glad to hear you've had a positive experience with OBDeleven on your VWs. However, the car cycling issue with your F10 BMW is unusual. Please contact our Customer Support team for further investigation via the "Help" section inside the mobile app.Regarding live data, it’s a highly requested feature for non-VAG cars, so every extra vote helps push it forward. We appreciate your feedback and will share your suggestions with our engineers and developers. Thank you for sharing!
It’s ok

The app itself is ok but I wish they would just update the VAG app. I know you can use it for VAG vehicles but in my opinion it’s not stable enough it constantly disconnects or doesn’t connect period, but then I go to the VAG app and it works perfect just slow. If I do get connected and I’m going to look at any live data it’s too many steps to get to the option or find the right option. Other than that the GUI is way better and the scanning is faster but still needs more work
Developer Response
Hello. We’re sorry that you’re experiencing connection and live-data issues in the main app. We genuinely want to improve the new app so it becomes as stable and convenient as the VAG app. Please contact our support team with your device, vehicle, phone, and app details, and let us know which live-data parameters and steps are causing difficulties. They will investigate the issue and help resolve it, and your feedback will help us improve the experience for all users.
Minor bug fixes and improvements for better performance and a smoother overall experience.
