If its not Dashcommand compatible it's useless to me.

Just thought I would mention it. Should have created a new post instead, sorry.

I wonder if eventually someone will launch a competitor to dash command with AppRadio support.

They do, unfortunately, the only comparable one that I know of is Torque, and they're Android only at the moment. I'd love to see an iOS version of torque.

Is that appradio compatible? ARLiberator lets you run whatever you want, but if that has any chance of jumping ship it needs to be AppRadio compatible on Android first.

Dashcommand is the only OBD2 app that works with the App Radio.

Torque runs great on the appradio 2.  I use it with one of those cheap obd elm 327 units.  I've always had a fear of leaving it plugged in because of battery drainage, but from this thread, it appears that my fear is unjustified.

Not on the iPhone. You need to indicate that.

You need to indicate that, since the following statement is false.

Danny did u get the GoPoint BT1A for 134 or GoPoint BT1 for 100?

You need to indicate that, since the following statement is false. 

 

So you are saying Torque is listed as compatible for the iPhone from Pioneer and that it can be controlled from the head unit?

I got the BT1 not the BT1A. Main difference being the BT1A supports both android and iPhone. Mine only supports iPhone.

You just said App Radio.  I didn't know from that statement that we were being iphone specific.  Sorry about that.  What about dynolicious?  Isn't that similar to dash command?

Again,  not compatible for iPhone to control from the unit.

so... i bought the ELM 327 BlueTooth OBDII and installed dashcommand on the iPhone4. The ELM will not connect with the phone.

 

Is it a 'bad unit' (all i get is a red light) or is it incomaptible with iPhone4?

 

Thanks!

Where did you buy it and who made it? Most of the ELM 327's are Chinese made garbage and don't work. 

Posted May 14, 2013 · 17:00 UTC#42

crap.

 

I bought it off Amazon from overseas... 

Posted May 14, 2013 · 20:34 UTC#43

You got garbage.

Where's the best place in the UK to get the GoPoint BT1?
