Tire Scan DOT/TIN
Read tire DOT/TIN · age code
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Read sidewall DOT/TIN with camera or type-in. See week/year, age, OK·Watch·Replace, and plant offline. Built for standing next to the car — EN + 中文.
Tire Scan · DOT/TIN reads a tyre sidewall DOT/TIN and tells you when it was made, how old it is, whether to keep or replace it, and which plant made it.
ONE JOB ONLY
• Decode DOT/TIN age (week + year)
• Clear status: OK · Watch · Replace
• Offline plant lookup (NHTSA list)
• Auto-save readings (and camera photos)
• Works offline after install
• English + 简体/繁體
This app does not check size, PSI, tread depth, shops, model names, or wheel position.
GET THE CODE THREE WAYS
• Live camera — point at the sidewall for automatic detection
• Shutter or Photos — still image OCR
• Manual entry — type the code and tap Read
OCR accepts a full sidewall code (about 10–16 characters, includes a letter, last 4 = week/year). If OCR fails, enter the code manually. Short or date-only codes work in manual mode.
AGE VERDICT
• OK (green) — under 6 years
• Watch (amber) — 6 to under 10 years
• Replace (red) — 10 years or older
Age is a common reason to replace a tyre even when the tread still looks fine.
PLANT LOOKUP
Offline NHTSA equipment plant data. See brand, country, manufacturer, place, plant code, and active/closed when known.
HISTORY & SHARE
• Auto-save every successful read (local on device)
• History newest first — tap for full record, swipe to delete
• Share a single summary image (code, status, plant, photo if any)
DESIGNED BY THE CAR
Single main screen, bilingual UI, light/dark, first-launch tips. Bottom banner ads only.
IMPORTANT
Results are for awareness from the codes you scan or enter. They do not replace professional inspection, manufacturer guidance, or legal vehicle checks. Dirty sidewalls, lighting, and partial markings can affect OCR — use manual entry when needed.
Tire Scan · DOT/TIN — sidewall age, clearly.
