Car Control - OBD2 keeps your whole car in one app: cheapest fuel nearby, GPS trip recording, refuel log, tyre sets - and, with Pro, maintenance, deadlines, documents and statistics. Plug in an ELM327 / OBDLink adapter and you also get a full live OBD-II dashboard.
Local-first by design: your car data lives on your phone and works fully offline. No account, no analytics, and we never sell your data. The free version shows a small banner ad; Car Control Pro (a one-time purchase, no subscription) removes it for good.
FREE - EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO DRIVE
- Fuel-station price finder - Italy (MIMIT), France (Roulez-Eco), Spain (Geoportal Gasolineras), Luxembourg, United Kingdom (CMA). Daily refresh, ECB exchange rates for cross-border drivers.
- GPS trip recording with route map, average and max speed, distance, duration, GPX export. Optional automatic start and stop when the car moves; a foreground service keeps recording with the screen off.

FUEL PRICES - IMPORTANT
Fuel prices are shown only in countries that publish them through an official centralized system: currently Italy, France, Spain, Luxembourg and the United Kingdom. The data comes from these public sources and may be incomplete, delayed or inaccurate when a source is not updated on time. Car Control only displays this public data and is not responsible for errors, missing updates or any decision made based on it - always check the actual price at the station. Every other feature works in any country.
PRIVACY
The app needs no account and collects no analytics; we run no servers and never see your data. Location is used for trip routes and nearby stations - in the background only if you enable automatic trip recording. The free version shows advertising served by Google AdMob: in the EU you are asked for consent first, and you can change your choice any time from Settings. Pro removes advertising entirely.

LANGUAGES
Car Control is available in 24 European languages.
OPEN GUARANTEE
