OBD2 adaptor & iOS app - BMW i3

[LordGrover]

Looking for a BT ODB2 adaptor compatible with iPhone/iOS to suit 2021 BMW i3 120 Ah.

I don't expect to clear codes or anything, simply to read and display stats and info.

Any recommendations for the device and/or app please?

There are a few on the market, but the easiest and best documented one that I could find is Bimmercode

https://www.bimmercode.app/

They do sell the OBD adaptor, but also list out which others they support. The app is easy to use and got get access to pretty much every feature. I used it to code mine from the limited tank size on the Rex model in the US.

Also managed to turn on the folding mirrors and stuff too.

The mi3 app was recently launched in the App Store, I saw it mentioned on speakEV so downloaded it:

My existing OBD adapters didn’t work however (I believe you need Bluetooth 4 for iOS) - I’ll likely buy the Vgate Icar Pro (just over £20 on eBay).

If you did want to use bimmercode the above adapter is supported in the app, tho’ it isn’t mentioned on their website.
