Do I have to use the app?

Using the App

You don’t have to use the RS2 app to get the job done with our OBD2 scanner. The scanner works great on its own, letting you check your car for any problems without needing the app.

Benefits and Features of the RS2 App

While the app is optional, it offers enhanced functionalities that can significantly benefit users by extending the capabilities of the handheld scanner. Here are some key features and benefits of using the RS2 app:

• Verified Fix and Parts: Access a database of verified fixes and recommended parts for specific vehicle issues. This feature helps streamline the repair process and ensures you get accurate, tried-and-tested solutions.
• Save and Export Handheld Data: Easily save diagnostic data from your handheld device to your smartphone for convenient access and sharing. Export this data to other formats for deeper analysis or to share with your mechanic.
• Scheduled Maintenance: Keep track of your vehicle’s maintenance schedule. This helps in maintaining vehicle health and can prevent costly repairs down the line.
• Service Guides: Gain access to detailed service guides that offer step-by-step instructions for various vehicle repairs and maintenance tasks. This is especially useful for DIYers looking to expand their automotive repair skills.
• Predicting Breakdowns: Utilize advanced algorithms to analyze your vehicle’s data and predict potential future breakdowns. This predictive feature helps you address issues before they escalate into serious problems, saving time and money.

While the RS2 app is not required for the basic operation of our OBD2 scanner, using it can enhance your diagnostic experience by providing additional tools and resources. The choice to use the app depends entirely on your personal preference and how you wish to manage and interact with your vehicle's diagnostic data.
