Does this app not have the ability to read ecu’s in the background while doing other things? Super glitchy and dropping connection like crazy. Normal?

I had some connection issues once in a while when using my phone (usbc to ethernet to obd), now I just use ethernet directly from my laptop instead and I've never lost connection or had any other issues.

I’ll give it another shot tomorrow. With tech these days I never know why issues arise; but sometimes they seem to vanish as quickly as they arrive.
We shall see!
Thanks for the note.

It's probably your OBDII dongle. Which brand/model do you have?

The wired connection is better (more stable and faster).

Thank you for inquiring!

Oh I believe that's the one I'm using as well, it's a little slow due to being on bluetooth but no signal cutting out on my G12 and G01. The wired option is more reliable in case you're inclined to try it out.

Thank you- may have to do that.
