Any of you guys played with this app, in your Jeeps in particular?

Been using it for a while now. Bought the app and a $20 adapter off ebay or Amazon. Doesn't do mileage and power without vehicle weight (never weighed my junk without the trailer hooked up), but it has been pretty handy otherwise, and I know about what my mileage is, just from having watched it for so long. Use it to read and clear codes on my friends'/relatives' cars, GPS speedo, all the basic sensor info, compass, coordinates, various other stupid things... For ~$25 total, it's hard to complain.

Same. I like it for the novelty and to have a cheapy scanner around.

Worth the cash.

I like it especially for the 'engine status' open/closed loop. I can watch exactly when it goes into open loop.

I have it. on my galaxy tablet, it was the only way to use my USB scantool adapter. the interface is kinda clunky, but it is phone based. It would be cool to see some dedicated Jeep layouts.

Been using it on my XJ with a KIWI adapter. It's great for data logging, CEL resets, and to see how far your speedo is off with a different size tire.

Thanks guys!

Heard about it on the Chrysler 200 owner's forum from a guy that uses it in his newer than my XJ C5 Vette and 200 S but wanted to make sure it would work on OBD2 XJ's too before getting anything. I run E-85 in my 200 during warmer weather and would like to try E-20 to E25 (splash blended since there are no blender pumps around here) in my XJ, which ran good on the one tank of E-21 it's seen so far, but would like to know what the computer is seeing when I do. Apparently the programing for the Pentastar/6-Speed Auto Mopars bump the timing a good bit (not sure if it's ignition, cams, or both) and I think our computers bump the ignition timing some for the E-21 judging from the changes in it's sound and behavior in comparison to the typical E-10 we get here in the Chicago Burbs.

You can see timing, vacuum, power/torque/load, and most of the sensor data, in a few different formats. It's so little money, I think it's a no-brainer if you have an android phone (presuming you don't already have a dedicated code reader or OBDII device like the ScanGauge, UltraGauge, etc).
