    I'd use their suggested app. Or hit the app store and check reviews

    So I am using the torque pro app on a very old android device I have

    It's working fine

    I am using it to monitor:

    RPM
    Coolant temp

    QUESTIONS:
    If leaving obd2 plugged into car, will it drain battery?

    Does torque Pro allow to see instant fuel mpg or trans temps ?

    Thanks

    I've left mine plugged in for 48hrs no problem. There's a fuel mileage addon for free in the google play store Yes on trans temp also

    I have the free Android version and yes, it will give you instant MPG as well as average MPG.

    I don't get that... That is the Instant MPG, as I was exiting the highway.

    I get 20-23MPG usually. Lowest has been 17.89MPG

    when you let off the pedal and drift your mpg shoots up since you are not "applying" the gas pedal but still "moving"

    avg is the better # to follow. I've hit 114mpg once, now that's a hyper-mile taco baby!

    and btw, mine's been plugged in for 380 days, no problems :)

    you can also look and clear codes on the free version of Torque
