Car dashboard light just came on? Don't panic — scan it.
Car Warning Identifier uses on-device AI to recognise car dashboard warning lights from your camera or a photo. In seconds you'll know what the symbol means, how serious it is, and what to do next. No sign-up, no internet needed.
HOW IT WORKS
• Point your camera at the dashboard and tap scan
• Or choose a photo of your dashboard from your gallery
• Get the light's name, severity and clear next steps
• Not sure which symbol it is? The app shows the lights that match the colour it detected so you can pick the right one
KNOW HOW SERIOUS IT IS
Every light gets a simple severity level:
🔴 STOP – pull over safely (e.g. oil pressure, engine overheating, brake system)
🟠 CAUTION – get it checked soon (e.g. check engine, ABS, tire pressure, airbag)
🔵 INFO – just letting you know (e.g. high beam, cruise control, fog lights)
CLEAR, PRACTICAL ADVICE
• What the warning light means
• Step-by-step: what to do right now
• "Can I keep driving?" answered in plain language
• What a FLASHING light means (e.g. a flashing check engine light)
• Read-aloud mode, so you can listen instead of reading
• Find a mechanic nearby with one tap
LIGHT LIBRARY – 32 SYMBOLS
Check engine, oil pressure, battery/charging, engine temperature, brake system, ABS, tire pressure (TPMS), airbag (SRS), power steering, stability/traction control (ESC/ESP), low fuel, seat belt, door open, hood open, parking brake, transmission temperature, glow plug, DPF, AdBlue/DEF, key not detected, service reminder, bulb failure, washer fluid, frost warning, fog lights, high beam, low beam, turn signals, cruise control, lane assist and more.

Useful for every driver: new drivers, rental cars, borrowed cars, or that symbol you've never seen before.
