    CarScanner Pro is probably the easiest one to use out of the box and has a ton of PIDs and functionality built into it already. However I'm surprised that you haven't mentioned Torque Pro which indeed isn't that user friendly but being really lightweight and supported by a large list of plugins available, easy integration with other apps (eg. AA Performance Monitor) and ability to setup pretty complex custom PIDs I would argue makes it one of the best apps of its kind

    • @iamcarhacker

      Yes torque is also good but I didnt want to fill the list with very similiar apps.

    How reliable are the fuel consumption/mileage figures obtained from the scanner.
    I get about 10 km/l from the scanner but around 6 km/l when dividing the odometer reading by the quantity of fuel purchased.
    Indicative of a tweaked petrol pump dispenser or faulty scanner calculations or a bit of both???
