Android or iPhone app for OBD for 2022 MG ZS EV to show cell voltages and temps

[peterseddon]

Are there any problems leaving it plugged in all the time? I put one in my previous car and it brought up the red engine light when first started.

No problems with this one some will set alarm off but I wouldn't leave it in ie over night (I have done this without any problems) as it does draw a bit of current not worth risking it also if playing with it just have car in ready mode as it's good practise
Ps you can drive around with it in some of the power gauges are quite useful also if you have a android box you should be able to display it all on car screen I will ask the developer to let it use Android auto

One thing to add is SOC is a bit lower then car display I think this is because it reads hole battery not just usable battery like the car shows

Morning, will this work with the elm 327 dongle? Thanks for all your input to this.

Some 327 will work for sure it really is hit and miss with these OBD2 dongles

I’ve just bought and received the nexa. Seems easy to click in and work the app. I can’t get any day on soc or soh however. Does this populate after I’ve driven it once?

 

[N2STY]

What app is that don't recognise it?

Car scanner. I’m iOS. I thought this was the one being talked about. My bad. Which ones do you use?

 

[N2STY]

The app that works on android is eZS I don't know iOS
Maybe you have a android tablet or a old phone?

Not really. I’m going through all the apps….! Will report back.

 

[muppet77]

Nope. I’m struggling to find an iOS app that gives me soc and soh with the Nexas.

 

[N2STY]

I have not heard of a iOS app dedicate to MG

I guess the question has anyone used another app other than the Nexa and viewed soc and soh using an iOS app?

 

[N2STY]

Have you tried torque ?
Here is a list of some iOS

 

[muppet77]

Here’s what I’ve tried without success!

Ouch could you not ask a friend to help if you only want to see the data occasionally?
Or some people have a android box thing for there car some will give you car play wirelessly as a bonus? Not really looked into this yet

Car Smart Android box

Whilst watching hundreds of MG ZS EV videos on YouTube I came across this video which uses an android box to convert the display into a android tablet which can load YouTube Netflix etc. Anyone have one of these or can recommend them? They’re about £80 on AliExpress.
