Apparently there some apps that run on the Iphone, do you have any problem with yours or is it accurate?
I want to get it because I don't trust the infiniti dealership here.

It works well. Besides reading codes, it can display a wealth of information: from catalytic temps to intake air temp to 0-60 times to estimated hp & torque.
The Bluetooth readers basically send all that data to your phone or tablet. I don't want to say they are all the same (evidently some are faster than others, some drop the connections, etc) - but their function is basically the same.
Here is a thread I started some time ago on this topic: Torque..no not that kind

Dash Command seems to have good reviews for iOS. App is $10 plus the cost of the OBD Bluetooth reader

Looks like Dash Command for IOS wants wifi...
From Palmer Performance web site:
DashCommand™ for the iPhone/iPod touch utilizes the built-in GPS & accelerometer sensors in the iPhone to provide advanced features such as the skid pad, race track, and inclinometer. It also includes virtual dashboards using our patent-pending DashXL™ technology. High quality software combined with the iPhone's sensors gives you the most convenient diagnostics & display solution anywhere.
Using WiFi technology and a supported hardware interface, you will be able to connect your iPhone to your OBD-II compliant vehicle and monitor, log, and playback vehicle information and parameters (GPS & accelerometer features are fully functional even without an OBD-II connection).

Do all these provide Live Data, or do I have to read the description closely? I don't want something that just reads a code, I want more from it.
At Advance Auto, the cheapest OBD II scanner that have a live feed is $99, and if I want to read ABS codes, it's $250.
Will any of these give me live info as well as ABS codes?
I am most interested in this one:
Or this one:
I know it's quite a price difference, but will either of them give me both live info as well as ABS codes?
