Default Scan tool

Has anyone bought a OBD wifi or Bluetooth scan tool with a boost gage for their I phone? Which one and which Wifi or Bluetooth unit did you get?
Thanks

just to make sure you know since some might not. there is a way to follow or subscribe too a thread without posting. If you click on the Thread Tools at the top right you can hit subscribe.
Although Brand didn't share this in the most friendly way I do agree with him that posting to a thread with follow is not the most desirable ave.
Thanks in advance for your consideration in this.

Doug

I've got the MX, works great with the Torque App. It's pricey, but don't make the mistake of getting one of those $19 junkers you'll see on Ebay.

Yup, I'll 2nd the Torque Pro app. I have an Android, so I got this:

I think they make an iPhone version too.

It's BlueTooth, and works quite well.

Well, hi guys! Brand, methinks you overreacted. Collins, I understand you don't like what he said, but no need to get that hostile.

Just a warning this time, but don't let it happen again.

I have the ScanLink ODBLink MX that I use with Torque Pro. Easy to use, and I'd certainly recommend it.

They also have a Wi-Fi version that is aimed at iOS devices (this one uses bluetooth). I have Android, so not an issue, although I can't believe that modern iOS doesn't have bluetooth.
