Mini WiFi OBD2 scanner for iOS, Android and Windows - check engine codes and live data
Model code: VP01 Manufacturer: Veepeak
Veepeak OBDCheck VP01 (sold on Amazon as "Veepeak Mini WiFi OBD2 Scanner") is a small Wi-Fi OBD2 adapter that works with iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets and Windows PCs. Plug it into the car's OBD2 port, turn the ignition on, join its Wi-Fi network and use a compatible app to read and clear check engine light codes and watch live engine data such as speed, RPM, coolant temperature, O2 sensors, mass air flow, throttle position and fuel trims.
How it connects: the adapter creates its own Wi-Fi network (SSID "WiFi_OBDII", IP 192.168.0.10, port 35000). This network has no internet access, so your phone stays offline while connected. Apps need the "local network" (iOS) or "nearby devices" (Android) permission. There is no Bluetooth. The power LED is not visible – check the Wi-Fi list to see if the adapter is working.
The adapter has no app of its own – it works with third-party apps such as Car Scanner, OBD Fusion (iOS), Torque (Android), Infocar, FourStroke, Dr. Prius, OBD JScan and OBD Auto Doctor. Some apps or in-app features are paid.
Vehicle coverage (generic OBD2 functions only): most OBD2/EOBD-compliant cars and light trucks – USA 1996+, Canada 1998+, EU 2001+ petrol / 2004+ diesel, Australia 2006+ petrol / 2007+ diesel, Mexico 2006+. Not supported: OBD-I vehicles, commercial vehicles (HD-OBD / J1939) and motorcycles. Most EVs and PHEVs need special apps and not all are supported.
Not supported: advanced diagnostics (ABS, SRS), manufacturer-specific data such as transmission temperature, and maintenance/service light resets. It is a generic OBD2 adapter, not an ENET Wi-Fi adapter, so it does NOT work with BimmerCode, BimmerLink, MHD or ProTool; also not compatible with OBDeleven, Carly or Carista.
Specifications: ELM327-compatible, Wi-Fi only, 9–16 V operating voltage, 85 mA current, -40 to 85 °C operating temperature, 48 × 25 × 32 mm.

Its best-known products are the OBDCheck adapters. They plug into the vehicle's OBD2 port and connect to a smartphone or tablet over Bluetooth, so users can read and clear check engine light codes, watch live sensor data and build custom virtual dashboards. The range includes:
Wireless OBD2 adapters: OBDCheck BLE, a favourite among DIY mechanics, and OBDCheck BLE+, the advanced version for enthusiasts.

Veepeak adapters don't come with just one app. They work with popular third-party apps such as Car Scanner, OBD Fusion, Torque (Android), BimmerCode, OBD JScan and Dr. Prius. This lets users choose the software that best fits their vehicle and needs. They support the standard OBD2 protocols and work with most vehicles sold in the US since 1996 (Canada since 1998).
