Multiecuscan app for iOS

Both Windows and iOS version have the same coverage and the same functionality. The iPhone/iPad version, however, is completely separate from the Multiecuscan for Windows and it is also more expensive. It can only be purchased from Apple’s App Store and it is not linked to the Windows’ version. The licensing is also different - it can be purchased only for a year and stops working after the period expires. Also, for the iPhone version you will need an iOS certified Bluetooth/BLE interface or a WiFi interface. The iPhone Multiecuscan app works only with CANtieCAR v4.x/v5.x WiFi, CANtieCAR v5.x BLE, ELM327 WiFi, OBDLink MX WiFi, OBDLink MX+ Bluetooth, Vgate vLinker BLE/WiFi. It does not work with other interfaces.
The iPad version of Multiecuscan also works on the newer MacBooks with M1/M2 chips. You can install it directly from the AppStore.

Currently the Multiecuscan App supports the following OBD interfaces:
- CANtieCAR v4.x/v5.x WiFi - The interface should be updated with recent firmware and switched to WiFi mode (from the SYSTEM.INI file which is in SYSTEM folder on the flash drive). The CANtieCAR should be plugged into OBD port of the car and the RADIO led on back of interface will blink in white to indicate that it works in WiFi mode. The iPhone/iPad/MacBook should be connected to CANtieCAR_WTCxxxx WiFi hotspot.
- CANtieCAR v5.x BLE Bluetooth - The interface should be updated with recent firmware and switched to Bluetooth mode (from the SYSTEM.INI file which is in SYSTEM folder on the flash drive). The CANtieCAR should be plugged into OBD port of the car and the RADIO led on back of interface will blink in blue to indicate that it works in Bluetooth mode. No further configuration required on the iPhone/iPad/MacBook.
- OBDLink or Vgate vLinker WiFi - The iPhone/iPad/MacBook should be connected to the WiFi hotspot of the OBD interface.
- OBDLink MX+ or Vgate vLinker FS Bluetooth - The iPhone/iPad/MacBook should be paired and connected to the Bluetooth device. This should be performed from the Settings app on the iPhone/iPad.
- Vgate vLinker BLE - No pairing/configuration required on the iPhone/iPad/MacBook.
- ELM327 WiFi - The iPhone/iPad/MacBook should be connected to the WiFi hotspot of the ELM327 interface.

Please note that Multiecuscan App will needs permission to use WiFi and Bluetooth on the iOS device. It will ask for this permission the first time, but in case you have disallowed it by mistake then you can check this in the iPhone's Settings app:
Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Local Network -> Multiecuscan (turn ON).
Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Bluetooth -> Multiecuscan (turn ON).

The connection with WiFi interfaces may also be interrupted by the "Wi-Fi Assist" function on iPhones. This function usually does not cause problems, but you can try to turn it off if you have problems with the connection between iPhone and OBD adapter:
Settings -> Mobile Service (scroll to bottom) -> Wi-Fi Assist (try to turn OFF)

Scan vehicle/modules

Click the "Scan" button on main screen to perform full scan for modules and DTC codes in each module. The app will display the SCAN screen and will start the scanning process. The full scan usually takes a few minutes and the app will display the progress.
