    The developer is designing it specifically for the Ioniq line—and it shows. Car a Scanner was never great, and now that this is out, there’s no reason to use any other OBD-II app. The CarPlay display is gorgeous!
  • Provides so much information.

    I have a 2023 Ioniq 5 and it works flawlessly. Very easy and quick to set up. I love how I can use it with Apple Car Play and have all the info displayed on my screen while driving.
  • Incredible App for Ioniq 5 owners!

    This is a great App - no need to fuss around with the others that require a lot of configuration and are obviously built for ICE vehicles. Thank you to the dev.
  • Working with Ioniq 6

    Not sure what is “partially functional” regarding the Ioniq 6 but I’m using it with a MY2024 AWD i6 and I can’t find anything non-functional at first glance. Does the job, great stuff.
  • Excellent

    I love the CarPlay integration. This app is well-designed and feels like it should ship with the car. Can confirm it works well with my Kia EV6. Eager to try it out on a road trip!

    I’ve just started using this app but wanted to provide my initial impressions. Connection to my Veepeak adapter was instantaneous. The UI is very well done, with everything presented in an easy to understand format. I like the graphical representation of the items and how everything is well organized. The information presented is above and beyond what is normally available and, while most might be accessible through other apps, this is clearly tuned for maximum info with minimum fuss on the Ioniq 5. The CarPlay interface is great too, providing near real-time (probably only limited by transmission from the adapter) at-a-glance information for much of the most critical information while either driving or charging. It’s obvious a lot of thought went into designing this app. I can’t wait to see what other enhancements the developer has in mind.
