OBD2 bluetooth readers..

Why do you think it is a better choice.

Is a certain app better than another?
I use Dashcmd and am very happy with it

More and cheaper choices for readers with Android. Would rather use Bluetooth than WiFi. Apple Bluetooth does not work reliably with some aftermarket Bluetooth devices (specifically Parrot for Bluetooth phone use in the truck, even though Parrot is supposed to work with Apple). Much wider choice of phones with Android, some less expensive than Apple products, and some more robust (i.e., waterproof) than Apple products.. iOS after 6.1.3 is a mess. Cheaper chargers and accessories for Android.

Is a certain app better than another?

Can't answer that one with any certainty. When I went looking for an OBDII reader for my iPhone 4S, I couldn't find anything I liked, so I just bought a new Edge Evolution programmer with multiparameter gauge display. There were more choices available for Android, but I don't want to change phones just for this.

and now everyone is bickering about phones haha..

I went with a cast off boost kyocera hydro running some old version of android that my girl had laying around after she upgraded, everything works so far, there are a few free apps that have what i want, of course the one app I like for how it displays the info, won't communicate with the damn bluetooth reader.. figures.. but there are more apps i haven't tried yet, so hopefully I will find one I like.... total cost involved so far, $12...

That is really cool info. I had no Idea they made such a thing and have recently thought about buying the scangage II but for $20 for both Ill try this first. Already ordered the reader from amamzon. I love this website.

I have an ELM Bluetooth adapter and I run an Android based stereo and use the torque app on it as well as on my phone
