About this app
Your car has been trying to tell you something. OBD Pilot reads the codes and explains them in language you actually understand. Plug any ELM327 adapter into your car's OBD2 port (every vehicle made after 1996 has one), connect via Bluetooth or WiFi, and OBD Pilot does the rest: WHAT IT DOES • Reads confirmed and pending trouble codes from every control unit • Shows you live engine RPM, speed, coolant temperature, fuel level, and more • Translates cryptic codes like "P0420" into plain English with real next steps • Captures the engine state at the moment a fault was stored (freeze frame) • Auto-saves every scan as a shareable PDF report CHAT WITH YOUR CAR Ask anything in everyday language. "Is it safe to drive?" "What does P0420 mean?" "Why is the engine running hot?" OBD Pilot's AI assistant uses your real diagnostic data to give specific, practical answers — and you can send photos of dashboard lights or engine parts for visual analysis. NO HARDWARE? START WITH DEMO MODE Toggle Demo Mode in Settings to explore every feature against a simulated vehicle. Realistic codes, real-feeling live data, the works. COMPATIBLE WITH • Any car or truck made after 1996 (US) / 1998 (EU) • Standard ELM327 Bluetooth or WiFi OBD2 adapters • Generic adapters like "OBDII", "Veepeak", "Vgate iCar" OBD PILOT PRO Free: unlimited diagnostic scans, live data, code lookup, PDF reports Pro ($4.99/mo with a 1-week free trial, or $39.99/year): unlimited AI chat and detailed AI analysis SAFETY FIRST OBD Pilot is an informational tool, not a substitute for a qualified mechanic. Always confirm any finding with a professional before performing a repair. Never read or interact with the app while driving. PRIVACY No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Your scan history stays on your device. AI requests are sent to OpenAI for processing; we do not log them on our backend.
