How does it work? Looks nice to have the convenience to use with my iphone

All it is, is the cable. Looking promising but the Dashcommand which they show, and you think you get but it's a 49.99 app. There are a few free but think i'll wait till the price comes down on the cable.

I'd get an Actron PocketScan or something like the cheap ~$20 scanners instead.

Not that the app versions aren't great, or even a software version you could use on a laptop, but we're still a ways off from having those be available at decent prices.

Although I guess if you can afford a $300-400 phone, $100 for a cable and $50 for an app is within reason.

So I was able to get a trial copy of DashCommand, and lets say it's not worth close to 49.99. The app interface is not near the quality I believe it should be. Now what it can do and do what it is showing then the price is alright. I didn't have to cable to try it out, but i will be looking into the future with this. I know SCT is working with Android now. Think i'll wait till they get it with the iphone or get myself a android.

So 150 just gauges or 475 and you get all the gauges and tunes.. not to bad.
