Apps (little software applications) allow you to customize your tablet to do the things you like to do. Some of the apps listed are free, while others are fee-based (meaning you have to pay for them). Additionally, some apps are initially free, and then require in-app purchases if more features and functionality are desired. Listed, you will find some app recommendations we have come up with based on recommendations and reviews.
CLTCC Library Services does not endorse any fee-based apps nor is it liable for reimbursement of any apps paid for by patrons.
AutoCodes is a reference tool for mechanics. It lists over 50,000 OBDII(OBD2) codes for a variety of makes and models. This is useful for those with tools that don't list the whole description of the code. It can also help you figure out parts and other information. There are even some videos for reference on some of them. Of course, you need to provide your own OBDII scanner and obtain the codes before this app is useful. However, it is free with no in-app purchases. It does have ads, but they're not bad.
Car Scanner ELM OBD2 is a scanner app. It connects to OBD2 scanners over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and spits out the codes it sends. It's also useful for a variety of purposes and other things. It even allows you to customize some of the codes for better and more accurate information. It worked in our testing and we didn't see any serious stability problems aside from restarting the app every now and then. People seem to really like this one. Most of its features come for free. The full version goes for $5.49.
Torque is another car scanner app. This one is fairly simple. It connects to a scanner device via Bluetooth. You can then see the scan codes on your phone. It features full OBD-II support. The app can take measurements of things like engine fault codes, performance data, and more. The app is also customizable. You do still need to buy the Bluetooth car scanner yourself. However, this app works quite well displaying those codes.
We're reaching a little bit with this one. Udemy is an online learning platform with a ton of different courses. Some of those courses involve auto mechanics. Mechanics generally know how cars work. However, taking the occasional course can keep the brain sharp. Courses are relatively inexpensive, although some can climb as high as $50. The app lets you watch video lectures and view the instructor's various files. It's good for what it is, even if it's not what you normally think of when it comes to mechanic apps.
