Apps that read CMP Retard Offset?

[Tdean91491]

Im wondering if any of you guys have found a decent app on the iPhone that reads the CMP Retard Offset using a blue tooth OBD2 adapter ?

If you don’t find one that works, I use a $30 RCA android tablet from Walmart to read mine using DashCommand and Car Gauge Pro.

I believe DashCommand is available on Apple devices as well, but I don't own any so don't quote me on that.

EDIT - Yup, quick Google search shows it in the Apple App Store.

Has anyone used this app before? The App Store doesn’t really give a good description of all the features it has.

I've used the Android version of Dashcommand, but it's been years ago. Seemed to work OK. Torque Pro always ran better on my Android phones so I ended up just using that. Don't think Torque is available on Apple, though.

What Bluetooth adapter are you using? I was looking around on Amazon & theres way to many options. Any idea on a decent one for the money?

I use this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074DWH8JR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
along with Torque Pro ($4.95 on Google Play)

Truthfully, all the cheap ones are hit or miss. I've got a bunch of them. I've got two of those cheap blue ones that 89RCLB posted, exact same model and seller, and they each work with one of my trucks but not the other. You can't make this crap up. Lots of people recommend the $30 BAFX but I could never get mine to work with either of my trucks. The only one I've got that has worked 100% flawlessly with every vehicle I've tried it on is my $100 PLX Kiwi.

Yeah, they really are hit or miss. But for $14.00 bucks I was willing to try it out. I've been lucky with mine, 100% success rate on four different vehicles.

I figured the cheap ones would be hit or miss. I’d like to try the app out before I drop 100$ on the Bluetooth OBD adapter.
