Wi-Fi Elm 327 adapter alternative

Hi All,

Forscan is without doubt the best tool I have ever used and I would very much like to continue using and supporting it.

I have been using Forscan Lite for IPhone/IPad for many years and have a Wi-Fi Elm327 adaptor which no longer connects/works.

I only want to check for DTC’s and monitor various PID’s etc, just as I have been doing successfully for years, I don’t want to do anything fancy.

I would like to continue using a Wi-Fi adapter as it best suits my needs, what would be the best one to connect and use.

Thanks in advance, George.

I use that adapter to connect vehicles via Android bluetooth to FORScan Lite and FORScan. It also works with AlfaOBD for Android and Windows.

Got the Vlinker FD+ BLE adaptor, the WI-FI version is no longer available.

Reloaded Forscan Lite on my IPhone and it connected automatically to my car, and Forscan.

Much more compact and faster than the old adaptor was too.

Seems to work very well, so back in business with Forscan.
