ScanMyOpel supports ELM327-based Bluetooth/WiFi interfaces on all Android devices. Please note - could be compatibility issues with some noname ELM327 interfaces. If you are experiencing problems with establishing stable connection with the ELM327 interface, please send us logs files for troubleshooting.

Recommended ELM327 version is 1.4/1.4+. Proper connection with Chinese versions of ELM327, other then 1.4 is not guaranteed. Recommended interface - ObdLinkMX.
Dont use cheap Chinese v2.1 ELM adapters, they in most of the case will not be able to work properly with our application.

Additional info on recommended interfaces:

In case of any issues with app it is possible to save log and forward it on [e-mail] for troubleshooting. From application's slider menu it is possible to enable logging as well as to send logs to us.

Attention!!
Please connect together pins 7, 3 , 12 and 8 in your ELM 327 interface.
On some model diagnostic of AT/ABS can be connected to pin 3 or 12 in the OBD plug. Since in ELM only used pin 7, you may not get connected to other modules.

Ratings and reviews

I have had this app for a few years. it appears that some functionality has been removed. I can no longer reset DTCs and now it only displays a maximum of 2. The full version is too expensive. Maybe £10 or £15 for lifetime would be reasonable. Hence the single star. I will just use something else to reset the DTCs.

I used to have the full version of this app 4 or 5 years ago for my Zafira-A (Z18XE) and worked well with the ELM I bought. Later on, it kept failing while trying to connect with the ELM and ended with : 'uncompatibel ELM'.I had report the problem with the cs and sending the log data to them without any progress. They only asked me to update the app but still NOT working. Now,I tried again with the lite version and it seems the same result occured. I don't think to purchase this app ever again.

Refused connection. Would not connect to 3 different obd2 devices all of which work with other apps with no issues. Couldn't comment on the functions of the software because it failed at step 1.

What’s new

- Fixed: the app could fail to launch when you had no internet connection
- New: optional "Fast adapter timing" setting (Settings screen) for quicker data reading - try it if your ELM327 adapter supports it
- Improved: faster, more responsive live data reading
