Useful for checking codes but it can’t access some modules adaptations. Asked for help before and not resolved. Same issues with this and the other vag app they made.
Developer Response
Hello,Thank you for your feedback.We’re sorry to hear about your experience.

2 days to change a basic setting?!
CatCalamity 2
I got the app and dongle based off of recommendations from a friend, and tried using it for the first time. All seems normal, asks me to sign in immediately, gets me to connect to the car.It then asks me what Volkswagen car I have. It gives me four options, and I accidentally tap the wrong one. This wouldn’t be an issue if the app worked on keyup, not keydown. But since it doesn’t, even though I didn’t let go on the wrong car, the wrong car was selected for my connection. I let the scan finish and disconnect, then go to reconnect. It defaults to the same car. Okay, let’s check Google. All people are saying is that you need to contact support.Surely not, surely it’s a basic setting. I mean, they charge people $100/year and $200 for the dongle, it can’t have a glaring issue this bad.Wrong!I tried contacting support, and it started me with an AI chatbot. It gave me very generic advice ‘why don’t you disconnect and it’ll show’ or ‘close and open the app and unplug and plug in the dongle’. Guess what, even deleting the car from my garage and uninstalling the app doesn’t work. Support robot has to be told that “No, none of your solutions work” before it sends the request through to support.Then, what does it tell me?‘The support response time is on average 2 days’2 days?! For one misclick?Garbage

We are terribly sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with our mobile app. Your feedback is important to us, and we apologize for the inconvenience you've faced. We will work to address these usability issues and imrpove our support team's responsiveness.Moreover, allow us to clarify that while the vast majority of VAG models are identified correctly, there are rare instances when that is not the case. To avoid further incompatibility concerns and confusing setting menus, we've opted to have such far and few between cases handled by our specialists manually; the operation itself isn't complicated but requires a human element to properly assign the correct vehicle base, or else many of our offered services just won't apply right. Our customer support team will gladly assist you with changing the incorrect vehicle base - all we could ask of you is a little bit more of your patience and understanding while our support crew clears a path to your help inquiry and sorts things out. Keep in mind that our human agents tackle support requests Mon-Fri, between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM UTC+3, thus weekends naturally fill up our support inbox, making Mondays the busiest day of the week for our helpers. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, your feedback won't go unheard as we strive to enhance both the user experience with our device and mobile app, but also the support we provide for our community when things go awry.
Be very careful

While it might read the fault codes DO NOT install any of the apps. They may not be compatible with one’s car. And pressing the uninstall button does not reset the values back to their original settings. So the problems persist. My car cannot be turned on without the horn and siren constantly going off and the windows won’t open.

Promised a lot, delivered very little

Disappointed with this device, very little usable functionality with a paid subscription. Have ended up just buying Vagcom instead - much better as a tool for diagnostics, service resets and programming.
Developer Response
Thank you for sharing your experience.With a paid subscription, OBDeleven provides full diagnostics, fault code reading/clearing, live data, long coding, adaptations, and access to One-Click Apps depending on vehicle compatibility. Functionality may vary by model year, control unit software, and manufacturer security systems (e.g., SFD/SFD2 on newer vehicles).If specific features did not work as expected, we would be happy to review your vehicle details and clarify what is supported.
You can now pair OBDeleven 3 directly with Trip tracker, so it only tracks trips made in your vehicle.
