Reviews

No connection!!!

I tried several times to make it work but it doesn’t connect with my car at all.


Not worth the money
3274600915

The latest update removed a most important feature; being able to record and display while in motion. I bought device and the new and improved update ruined the device. It is now not much better than visiting an auto parts store and getting scans for free. I consider the marketing a bait and switch scam.


Completely NOT friendly
fdsafdsafdsa

The app is painful to use, I eventually gave up and bought a different one and their app was very intuitive and user friendly/easy to use. This is garbage, move on.


Absolute Garbage
bassmaster1106

I gave it one star only because I couldn’t give it zero. Once I finally got it to connect it said the firmware needed an update. After wasting a lot of time with three failed attempts it says it can’t be updated. Total waste of my time, don’t waste yours even trying to use this garbage.


Nearly Worthless
bscunningham

Software is EOL 4 years ago and was hobbled the most basis functions at that time. It’s hard to believe reputable stores like Napa still sell it. If you came her e to get the software after just buying it TAKEBIT BACK! The HT200 I bought at Walmart works great for $50.


Disappointment
Nonscan

Good luck getting a Bluetooth connection to the device. If there is a magic way to connect, it is kept secret. No trouble-shooting advice can be found on Actron.com and there are no manuals. It could be such a good tool if only it worked.


Decent tool for its age
Bobalewie

It performs decently. I purchased this several years ago so newer units have more capability.


Great device
12364arturo

So many bad reviews, so it does get a bit annoying connecting at first but the trick is to force close uscan app if you have it open, then go to Bluetooth settings select uscan give it a minute or two after it connects then open up the app it should work fine , if not force close app and reopen, great for trouble codes abs and airbag lights customer service is terrible tho had to pay twice for add ons


Crap after update
Bli182_2001

After the update I can’t even get it to connect anymore


This device is totally useless.
Billybobbuckaroo

I bought this less than a year ago and used it once. The code info was very limited and mostly inaccurate. When I tried to use it a second time a few months later, it would not sync with my iPhone blue tooth. Kept getting message that device was not turned on or vehicle was moving which neither was true. It is crap. Don’t waste your money.
