Anyone Tried The Torque App For Andriod?

Great little app. I'm using the paid version. Works well with my el-cheapo China BT adapter. It's fairly fast and stable.

I used the Passat theme and changed the colours a bit to match the the BA dash.

Me thinks I need this, buy a cheap tablet and mount it near the ICC could be an option to make it easier to read.

I've been using the ELM bluetooth and torque app for about 6 months now and never had a prob. It syncs in secs on start up and its great to use at the strip as boost gauge. Also if your phone has video out you can run it to an ASL RGB box and then up to your ICC. All you do then is select AUX and bang your phone gauges now appear on your ICC. That is of course as long as you have a colour ICC.

^That's awesome

I think I would be sitting the phone on the dash and using the HUD on the windscreen, showing boost for my launches

can this be done with iphone or android only?

Yes you can use iphone but you will need to use an app called REV not Torque! also I think you may need a Gaol bronken iphone due to some bluetooth connection issues or something!

Ok thanks for that. Stupid iPhones!

If there's an IPhone OBD app that can connect over WiFi, you should be able to use an OBD adapter with WiFi. They are more expensive.

Torque is an awesome app. Been using it for over a year. I'm using the scantool OBD2 bluetooth adapter. It goes to sleep when not being used so you can leave it plugged in all the time and leave it hidden behind the dash without draining the battery.

Does anyone have any custom PIDs for our Falcons? Some of the generic Ford ones don't work on our cars.
