Absolutely fantastic app. As with most things this configurable, you will have to configure it first (eg I had to enter my cars gear ratios to correctly show which gear I was in). So please don't complain that it doesn't work right after you install it! Learn how to use the app properly, it's worth it! Only issue I have - there is almost no information or properly detailed manual. Eg: what are gague maths, and how do you use them? Devs - please improve / create detailed manuals!

I bought a Bluetooth OBD2 and downloaded this app specifically so I could have boost, voltage, and AFR gauges in my 2011 subaru sti. Works great overall, but I was wondering: is there a way to get the app to refresh faster? I notice a lot of delay on the speed and RPM when I accelerate. I bought the first ELM327 Obd2 I saw on Amazon for $14, not sure if that could be the bottleneck.

Ok, had this for a few weeks now and paid for some premium dashboards. Great graphics of that there is no doubt, however when it comes to editing it's way too unpredictable, complicated and sensitive. I know there are some petrol heads out there that (At least claim they) understand it all but for your average joe like me it's too time consuming. I wish the developer luck and I'll pop back at a later date to see if things have improved (been simplified a little) but for me it's a no go

Thanks to RealDash team for the quick offer to help. app seems quite confusing and hard to edit at 1st when creating your own dash design, but if you go in the edit options and pay close attention to the gauges you'll see it is rather SUPER EASY to create your own design. Thanks you for recommending use of a image editor. as for connection to my custom ecu was a 30min job. if any issues using the app best contact RealDash for help 1st. last it works Great!!! Thanks Napko

By far the best app to connect with the car by a long shot! the only negative thing i can think of is that i didnt know about this sooner saving me messing around with usb connections on alternative apps. the team are amazing too! if you have a problem, dont uninstall leaving a nad comment, just email them and they help you more than you could hope for! ive never left a review for any app in all my years of having android but i just had to share the fact that this is amazing!

The app is designed very well, want to purchase the full version. But I am unable to configure the connection with my Android Auto for Volkswagen Polo 2013. Installed in Android Auto through another google account. The CarSetting app in Android Auto very well detect the speed, rpm, mileage etc etc with the default connection with the original cable without ODB2 But unable to find the tyoe of connection settings I have to configure in real dash to get the info. Please advice.

I think the app can be good if u are able to link it with your aftermarket ECU to Android radio. Bud i can't seem to find any information and assistance on how to link it with Dicktator Management. Can someone please help.

Its just great. Ive had it and used it for over a year now. I sim race, and of corsa lol I drive a Rav4 as well. In the car, toss my phone into its clip, load the app and go. In the sim rig, again, clip my phone into it's mount and go. Oh and I also have it on my old Samsung Tab3, acting as a larger secondary sim dash behind the steering wheel, much like real dash gauges. With my Sim Racing, Im pretty picky. Im not disappointed with this app. With my real car, I couldn't really care, the app seems to work well, but I really only use it for the speedo function. In any case, I have no complaints, and as well, if i did, the developer seems to be around to help. Maybe the developer could build in a dash cam? that seems all its really missing for my needs. Thanks for a proper decent product. Much appreciated.

Quite expensive as I had thought purchasing a gallery at $10.98 was equivalent to a full version. Turned out I needed to pay another $10.98 to get a full version. Left a bad impression of being scammed. After paying for full version, the map was shown but still could not navigate nor did it respond to voice. Chose Spotify as my music player but no graphics shown in the dash I bought. Should have allowed trial period for gallery dash boards as once you purchased you couldn't change anymore.

The app has a lot of customisation and it is presented well, not entirely user friendly as I had to scratch my head to figure out how to connect a WiFi odb2. There is lag, and some of the indicators do not work making it all in all a nice effort but pretty useless app Edit. It woul help if you had tutorials for us plebs. For example, I just found out to get the indicators to work I woul have to have the manufacturers PIDs. I think just simple step by step guides would help.

Good, but frustrating for DIY projects, mainly due to lack of good documentation or examples. Ive updated my review based on experience. The concept is great and the dashboards beautiful. Just what I need. Unfortunately, the documentation and support however are not so great. I'm using RealDash CAN, and whilst the target ids are listed, there is no information on what the valid units are for each, just a handful of examples. I was trying to get this to work on an Odroid C2 board running Marshmallow (listed as compatible in Google Play) through either serial or Bluetooth. Neither would even connect through RealDash despite the connection working absolutely fine via Android terminal apps. I wrote a long request for support via the website and uploaded serial log but got no reply. I eventually got it to work via LAN/IP, but I really preferred to use Serial/BT. Speed indicator: I finally got it working after wasting a lot of time and finding and changing a setting that means that it defaults to using GPS, even when the data is provided in the CAN stream. Why? This should be made clearer in the documentation.

Swiping up or down to get to the menu just exits the app. Unusable

Useless. The km/h goes up and down. Totally randomly. Even when I don't use it in the car. Calibrating, cleaning cash didn't help. Uninstalling.

It works in Forza Motorsport (2023) very briefly and then crashes. I'm using the FM7 option so maybe Forza made some changes since then. UPDATE: Thanks for adding support for FM8!

Could be 5 Stars but there is few issues 1st and most important I cannot purchase full version 2nd inputs I can remove but add input no I choose any and it does not add even the one I just removed. Every time I need to reset to default and it does not mater I'm logged in or no always same.

I just bought the full version and downloaded the update. Now it just keeps crashing! Not happy at all! I also used to have several different dashboards that doesn't even show up now!! Also, it doesn't connect to my ODBII anymore!!

5 star app, period. Dev helped me with several issues on the windows version, this is the best thing for streamers and youtubers doing driving sims, run it on another computer with the data multicast, capture it, profit. Way, way better than a dinky little pedal display, and doesn't move around like your in game dash does, and it looks killer on a wheel mounted device like a fanatec wheel with your last ten unused phone.

After Day 1 of using it; Does what I want, little hard to navigate sometimes, don't like the crappy graphics video game looks of the "garage". Just give me a list, I have a PS4 to play racing games. Also still trying to figure out why the codes I'm getting back are similar to codes I'm familiar with (emissions stuff) but NOTHING matches them perfectly. Going to keep messing with it. For price though, using with VeePeak OBDII reader, it's more than I could ask for. Will update in future.
