Revfinch is an OBD2 car scanner and car diagnostic app for ELM327-compatible adapters. Find out why the check engine light is on, read and clear trouble codes, and watch live engine data on your phone.
Reading and clearing codes is never locked behind a paywall. Plug an OBD2 adapter into the port under your dashboard, connect over Bluetooth, BLE or Wi-Fi, and scan.

GOOD TO KNOW
• You need an ELM327-compatible OBD2 adapter to read your car. Demo mode works without one.
• Most petrol cars sold in the US since 1996 and in the EU since 2001, and most diesel cars in the EU since 2004, have an OBD2 port.
• Revfinch reads standard OBD2 data. It does not do maker-specific coding or service resets.
• Revfinch is an OBD2 car scanner, not a replacement for a mechanic. Do not use the app while driving; set up the dashboard before you go.
