EV Dashboard

Overall I love the concept of this app. The information is fantastic. It provides far greater insight into what’s happening with your vehicle than the standard displays. The only issue I have is with the car play display. If you use a spot screen to display other information, like the radio station, then the information icons for this app become too small to read. It’s just easier to read the phone. Unfortunately on the phone you need to scroll to get the pertinent information. There’s far mor information available on the phone but the key stats are not collected together like they are on the CarPlay display. It was clearly designed to display without the split screen but it’s a common setup so I’m disappointed there isn’t an easy work around, like eliminating one or 2 icons to get them to fit on the screen in the larger format.

After reading the reviews on here and on Reddit I decided to go ahead and spend the money for this app to use with my Ioniq 6. I wasn’t able to get it to sync with my Veepeak OBD2BLE adapter, even though it was on the list of adapters that are compatible. I did all the usual steps with no luck. I emailed support (Greg, himself) and explained my situation. He got back to me within a half hour and gave me his phone number to call so we could troubleshoot the problem…on a Sunday…in the summer. I sent a screen cap of the message I was getting and he hadn’t seen that one before. But he walked me through several steps and eventually asked me to confirm, in the app settings, that Bluetooth was enabled. It was enabled in the general settings but It wasn’t in the app itself (for some reason). Issue solved. The app fired right up. And I spent the next hour plus geeking out over the inner workings of my I6. Goodbye Car Scanner. Hello Ioniq 5 Companion. It’s well worth the $13. Thanks Greg. I hope you make a lot of money with this app.

I’ve just started using this app but wanted to provide my initial impressions. Connection to my Veepeak adapter was instantaneous. The UI is very well done, with everything presented in an easy to understand format. I like the graphical representation of the items and how everything is well organized. The information presented is above and beyond what is normally available and, while most might be accessible through other apps, this is clearly tuned for maximum info with minimum fuss on the Ioniq 5. The CarPlay interface is great too, providing near real-time (probably only limited by transmission from the adapter) at-a-glance information for much of the most critical information while either driving or charging. It’s obvious a lot of thought went into designing this app. I can’t wait to see what other enhancements the developer has in mind.
