VEEPEAK OBDCheck BLE, Bluetooth OBD-2 Diagnostic Device for ABRP, EVNotify, LeafSpy, Torque

No, an OBD2 app is required but not included. There are many great third-party OBD2 apps available for download from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store (some may require purchase). The features they offer depend mainly on the app you choose.
For general OBD2 functions, we recommend Car Scanner ELM OBD2, Infocar or OBD Fusion (paid). They cost between 0-10€.
Some advanced apps require a subscription or are more expensive, such as BimmerCode or OBD JScan.
For advanced vehicle-specific functions, see the app recommendations listed below:

• Toyota & Lexus: OBD Fusion, Carista OBD
• FCA: OBD Fusion, OBD JScan, AlfaOBD
• Ford, Lincoln & Mazda: OBD Fusion, FORScan Lite
• Nissan & Infiniti: OBD Fusion, Carista OBD
• Volkswagen/Audi/Seat/Skoda: Carista OBD
• BMW & Mini: BimmerLink, Carista OBD
• Others: GaragePro Car OBD2 Scanner

The OBDCheck BLE is compatible with Apple iOS devices via Bluetooth LE. You should not pair or connect in the iOS Bluetooth settings, but connect directly in the app. Note: Wi-Fi is not used.

It works with Android smartphones and tablets, but may have compatibility issues with some Android head units due to lack of support for certain Bluetooth profiles. Due to the complexity of the market, we do not have a compatibility list. For some Android head units, you can check the Bluetooth settings and see if the pairing PIN is disabled or incorrect. If that does not help, please contact VEEPEAK or the head unit manufacturer for assistance.

You can leave the adapter connected for a few days if your car battery is not too old and your electric car is driven frequently. However, if you leave your electric car parked for longer than a week, we recommend that you disconnect the device.

Most electric vehicles (including PHEVs) do not comply with standard OBD2 specifications, so you may need a suitable app for connection, e.g. Car Scanner ELM OBD2 (select the appropriate connection profile), ABRP, LeafSpy, EVNotify, EV Watchdog, MyGreenVolt or CanZE.

Most OBD2 apps only offer basic diagnostics for electrical-related check engine lights. You need a powerful app that can perform advanced diagnostics for your specific electric vehicle, such as OBD Fusion, OBD JScan, AlfaOBD or Carista OBD. Contact VEEPEAK or the app developer to check if it is available for your electric car. Warning lights for maintenance requirements cannot be read or reset as there is no error code for them.

The readable parameters depend on what the manufacturer has installed on the OBD2 system. In general, newer electric vehicles provide more readings and a faster update speed.
