FORScan Lite - for Ford, Mazda for Positive User Reviews
✓ Great toolBest scan tool app I've used. Easy to set up. Tons of useful PID's, easy to set up graphs, and the ability to email reports. Add on modules allow for key programming. Also reads chassis codes and software versions. I don't see an easy way to get readiness codes. Too bad it's only for Ford and Mazda..Version: 1.3.2
✓ Brilliant………Ford TechnicianOutstanding App for checking/clearing DTC’s, Data logging sensors, recoding injectors, DPF regeneration, module resets, Working in a Ford dealership this is a very quick and efficient way of accessing data from the modules when the Ford online diagnostic is down, I started with the bbfly Wi-Fi adaptor with HS/MS can switch which works very well and was inexpensive to buy, I have just bought the Obdlink MX+ Bluetooth adapter which automatically switches between HS/MS can and seems to be faster, There is also a Windows FORScan version with more functionality allowing key programming, module programming, asbuild data etc with an extended licence, Personally I’ve had no issues with this software used on both iPhone and iPad, Highly Recommended 5*****.Version: 1.5.12
✓ Needs quality of life featuresFORScan is an absolute necessity if you own a Ford or Mazda and do your own maintenance and repairs. It’s a terrific and powerful app that gives you access to sensors and functions of your car that other apps cannot. It is very powerful and affordable. For about $35—the cost of the app and a *real* OBD-II HS-CAN/MS-CAN scanner—you can have a diagnostic tool that’s as capable as the one at the dealership service center. That makes this a no-brained to have and use if you do your own maintenance; it’s one of the best tools you can buy for your tool collection. That being said, I wish it had a “demo mode” that saved the last known connected vehicle’s information, so I could explore the settings without wasting fuel or draining my car’s battery. The app is very deep and can be overwhelming. I’d like to be able to sit down for an hour or two and just explore all the options without being connected to the car. For instance, you can set up “dashboard” panels to display different sensor readings to help you monitor the car and you can save different “dashboards” to quickly reuse later. There are hundreds of sensors to choose from and they’re divided into different categories that can sometimes have cryptic names (fortunately there is a search function). It can take a very long time to sift through all the sensors and pick out the ones you want to monitor and you need to be connected to the car to do so. I’d like to be able to take some of my free time—watching tv on the couch or something—to set up my “dashboards” and have them ready to go when I need to use them, saving time during the actual repair or diagnostic. I implore the developer to look at the “Car Scanner” app in the App Store for inspiration and an idea of what I’m talking about. They have a demo mode where you can use your last connected car or a dummy, default car. It really makes learning the app itself a lot easier and more convenient. This frustration doesn’t ruin the app, though. It’s really a fantastic app, that could just be a little better. Don’t hesitate to download it and help support the development. We need more resources to help make it easier to work on our own cars as the industry (and corporatism in general) tries to make it more and more difficult. And a tip: you do need a fully-featured, non-bootleg OBD-II scanner dongle. You can find more information on FORScan’s website, with specifically-listed makes. Basically, it needs to have the ability to switch between “HS-CAN” and “MS-CAN” modes to access the different kinds of sensors (most of the bootlegs only access HS-CAN sensors, I think). Look for a scanner that specifies it is HS-CAN/MS-CAN capable. If the dongle has a mechanical switch, it’s a pretty good giveaway that it does, since that switch changes modes. Also, you can just consult their site for recommendations..Version: 1.4.3
✓ Please make temp gauges available in Fahrenheit!!Love the App but can you please make the temp gauges available with Fahrenheit readings. Thank you..Version: 1.5.0
✓ 7.3 powerstrokeThis app is awesome!!! It has so much info and so many gauges and tests. It DOES do the injector buzz test for the 7.3 powerstroke. Well worth the money!.Version: 1.4.5
✓ Best ever OBD softwareLoaded onto my iPhone 4 and iPad 2. Works perfect and give me a huge amount of data. If this is the lite and very will to pay for the full version when it is released. Great job note: I used this on a Mazda3 and Mazda BT50 On other cars not in the car type list it will not work. Had to use a generic (far less information) OBD.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Absolutely amazing!!!This with a wifi odb2 and your iPhone makes a great ford scanning tool. Best $5 I have ever spent. I hope they expand and make a VW and Toyota too. Great app and great service. Keep up the excellent apps..Version: 1.3.4
✓ Pays for itselfI used this in combination with vLinker MC+ obd2 adapter to fix a rough idle issue in my mustang GT. I did the “reset all adaptations” procedure.Version: 1.5.16
✓ ABSGood app told me which ABS sensor had failed..Version: 1.3.3
✓ If yo own a Ford, you need this appThis app allows you to access more data about your Ford than you know what to do with. You get access to every single PID and the testing and mode $06 info is great. A must have!.Version: 1.4.3
✓ OMG The App I have been looking for!For months been having transmission issues after install....was able to clear TCM module through this app!!!! Save me money and head aches....Version: 1.5.7
✓ Worked perfectlyI needed to read the PIDs from the GEM in my 2003 Escape in order to diagnose a problem with the "door ajar" light. This app, in conjunction with a wireless OBD2 adapter, worked perfectly. It connected to the vehicle on the first try and communicated with all the modules. It checked for DTCs in all of them, showed me a fault I didn't know I had in the keyless entry module, indicated how to fix it, and cleared the code afterwards. You can select which PIDs you want to monitor from any module, it's all fairly intuitive. I was able to confirm that the door ajar switches in the driver's door and tailgate were permanently indicating "closed". I haven't used this app for anything else yet, but I'm happy to give it five stars because it did the specific job I bought it to do and gave me a bonus fix into the bargain. It's worth the price for that alone..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Exceptional valueActually provides more diagnostic info than my Actron scanner!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great with OBDLink MX+I’ve been using this app with the ODBlink MX+ device and it performs very well. The layout of the dashboard isn’t as pretty as some other apps but it by provides comprehensive coverage of PIDs for Australian Fords, something that seems lost on other app developers peddling software to the Australian market. If you have an Aussie Ford and a suitable adapter (e.g. like the ODBLink MX+) then you won’t go wrong with this app. I gave it four stars only because it’s not that nice to look at and the steps to set up tests are a little convoluted..Version: 1.5.5
✓ Fantastic AppUsed on my Ford C-Max hybrid and Ford Excursion 6.0L Diesel.Version: 1.3.11
✓ Great app. Don’t believe the negative reviewsIf you use an approved OBDII wireless connector (see recommendations from their website), this app works flawlessly. Helpful for uncovering issues or performing resets of common functions, especially for newer Fords and Mazdas..Version: 1.5.15
✓ Excellent appThe App works well and provides the data as described. As others have said the displays are a little small but do the job. I would like to see Apple car play connectivity. Just for the display function alone would be a great addition. That way it wouldn’t matter that the displays are small on an iPhone. Cheers Mark..Version: 1.5.10
✓ Part time mechanic/ rebuilderI had an airbag (SRS) light on the 2014 Mustang I'm rebuilding. I had already replaced the airbags and had the control module reset by MyAirbags, clock spring, seatbelts, etc., but still had an SRS light. I had an old ELM327 but was reluctant to buy an App because many people said the ELM was only capable of reading ECM codes. I gambled and purchased the ForScan app and it worked perfectly. It gave me the error codes (faulty front impact sensor) and cleared the codes so the SRS light is off. (I had another impact sensor to replace it). ForScan saved me a hundreds off what I would have had to spend on a dedicated SRS reader or dealership expense. Thank you.Version: 1.3.1
✓ NOT a Lite appThis app is not a lite version of a more robust app ... it gives you an enormous amount of insight to your vehicle ... a bit of a learning curve but invaluable. I had problems with my Elm device st first and the customer Service was excellent and helped me fix my issues 100-percent. I have already saved a lot of money being able to diagnose problems that the dealer would’ve charged me a ridiculous amount of money for and I was able to fix myself. For a Ford this was better and cheaper than all of the other apps out there and I have tried many! The developers continually keep this app relevant and up to date. Thanks for this app!.Version: 1.4.3
✓ Works greatYou have to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit by tapping on the pids and selecting Fahrenheit when adding them to your data view. I didn’t realize this was possible for a long time. The app works great, allows me to see a large amount of vehicle data that other scanners can’t see or they just get wrong. Works on my Mazda too..Version: 1.5.12
✓ Great app. Just need F and PSII would give 5 stars but I cannot find a way to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit. Or kPa to PSI. It’s annoying to do the conversions. But it’s a great app. Also wish the display was customizable. Used on 6.0 Powerstroke Ford..Version: 1.4.4
✓ Great app, helped diagnosed Mazda Warning triangleGreat for DIY and read manufacturer specific code and troubleshoot by inspecting PCM values.Version: 1.5.20
✓ Works greatUsed on my 2015 F350, works great to monitor all pids..Version: 1.3.8
✓ AmazingVery easy to use and it’s one of the few that allows my diesel to run injector operation checks!.Version: 1.5.10
✓ In A Class Of It’s OwnBetter than anything out there. Take the time to learn it. You won’t be disappointed. This is as good as most scan tools. Use this especially with my 6.0. Highly recommend..Version: 1.3.11
✓ Great!Forscan is great. Those who know, know. I loved it in the computer and being able to use it on my iPhone is even better, no cords. Keep up the good work!.Version: 1.2.3
✓ User attention to detail pays offTried it on my iPhone and it worked great Tried it on my iPad and I got a odbc device chipset error saying odbc device was a clone and not compatible. Removed odbc device and reattached, followed the prompts about the different can bus toggle on , etc, when it was done with the setup it worked fine. So basically if you switch devices you have to re set up I got more than what I expected interns of functionality and actual data that is represented. Lots to learn about the odbc ii modules Great app.Version: 1.4.4
✓ AwesomeThis app makes you wanna buy nothing but fords and Mazdas!.Version: 1.3.11
✓ BMS reset is worth $6Bought this app for $6 instead of paying a dealer to reset Battery Management System on a 14 Escape. cheap for what it does. Thanks.Version: 1.5.8
✓ ProblemI have the device makes with an Bluetooth I bought it that it makes an I hope that the program is modified to operate Bluetooth or I want to recover my money with thanks Judge / Walid al- Muntasir.Version: 1.2.4
✓ One of the bestOne of the best ford car scanners out there. My only niggles would be make a cleaner UI and add service options to change car settings like in the main pc app. Apart from that, the app is pretty flawless..Version: 1.3.11
✓ Great scan tool for ford diesel trucksI was skeptical about this app. With Larry mixed reviews I thought I’d give it a shot for $6.So glad I did well worth the money. I have a 02 7.3 power stroke. it dose everything I needed KOEO tests KOER test, Injector buzz test and cylinderContribution test To name a few.I guess the laptop version allows for programming as well but this is a pretty full comprehensive app for your phone..Version: 1.5.12
✓ Great app!This application used with the appropriate protocol adapter gives access to all modules on manufacturer bus! Can monitor hundreds of parameters in real time and display/clear fault codes. Some minor bugs such as application closing when deleting many items of monitoring list..Version: 1.2.3
✓ Finally worksOriginally never works and then after multiple hours of testing and reconfiguration it finally me decided to work.Version: 1.5.14
✓ Worked perfectWorked great with my Mazda CX-5. Has PIDS that I couldn’t get on other scanning software. Well worth the price!.Version: 1.5.21
✓ Just what I neededI paired it with the kiwi3. Works fantastic on my ‘99 Powerstroke 7.3. Was able to do a buzz test on injectors, monitor trans temp while towing etc. lots of great features..Version: 1.5.7
