Apparently you need the Wifi version for iPhone/iPad. Heard rumour of a BT version for iPhone somewhere though...

It's not that the bluetooth doesn't work on the iPhone, it's just apple is very restrictive as to what you can and can't do with their devices, a jailbreak or a root would, didn't probably solve it

So I got the obd2 adapter and the torque app is failing to connect and asking me if my ignition is on. Any advice?

Thanks. Tries with car on acc, on and running. Torque app finds the dongle, connects, but then scans for protocols and says it can't read ecu. Either I got a bad obd2 reader or my cars port is messed up.

However, my ignition must be on (but engine doesn't have to be running) to get any readings or data to come through from the ECU.
