Carly for BMW Pro (Old Vers.) App Reviews

iPhone found the wifi dongle easy. Cleared my codes and reran to see current code. Easy to use

Using elm327wifi OBDII connector with this app is a very power diagnostic and coding tool with this app. Clearing codes while driving is amazing. Clearing codes before the dealership is amazing. The app is a must have for bmw enthusiast. My 08 e90 loves this thing. Totally worth the money.

This app literally has saved my life, it works perfect for any issue on my BMW. It reads all kinds of codes that can be set off by the computer. It is very versatile and efficient in what it does. Certainly the BEST!

Great app waiting for update to disable seat belt warning for Mini Cooper R56 2009. Keep up the good work guys!

Was working perfect prior to update. Now the app just closes during the readout. Useless.

Great little app for reading / clearing error codes and doing light coding tasks.

I cant say enough about this app. Its great! It has saved me hundreds of dollars by allowing me to code pretty much anything I want, which I would have otherwise needed to have the dealership code for a lot more than the app and adapter cost. Its straighforward and easy to use for anyone, whether you are technical or not. The guys at BMWhat are always happy to help and very responsive. Highly recommended. As an update, and in response to some others who have had trouble since a recent update. I had some of the same difficulties as others after the update. I assumed it was related to a reflash from the BMW dealership at a recent visit. I contacted the guys at BMWhat and they said they were working on another update. I downloaded the update yesterday and connectivity was smooth and seamless, and now all coding options are back and everything I coded ran perfectly. Every app has glitches from time to time, when this one does, the guys are on it, and are very responsive to my inquiries. Still love the app. For reference, I have an 2011, E90 series 335i and use an iPhone 6 connected with the BMWhat WiFi OBD adapter.

Works wonderfully. Glitches on the update but after reinstalling a couple of days later bugs seem to have disappeared. /shrug Also, add on features are worth it.

There appear to be gaps in the models supported: For instance the E60 535i x-drive is not supported, which is amazing considering it is a pretty common model. My other gripe with the app is that for $50 or so it does not include all functions. You have to make an in-app purchase $50 to reset service indicators and to register a new battery. Both of these tasks seem like they are extremely common for a DIY user, and they are using this to squeeze a little more money out of their already paid users. For a (very) pricy app, I am disappointed that I am being nickel-and-dimed this way.

Easy to work with excellent tool. I use it on all our Bimmers.

I don’t usually write product reviews, even for the good ones. This is in fact my first product review, ever. Why? Because this app is that good. I used to code my BMW’s with a laptop and cable, it was tedious. It’s been a while since I coded my cars and completely forgot how to do it. Along came this app. It’s wonderful, very easy to use and there’s no fuss. Simple wifi obd device and your phone, that’s it. I was also able to clear a few non-important codes and register a new battery easily. I love it. Please add support for newer BMWs.

This app literally paid for itself in the first 15 minutes I had it. Very user-friendly and appears to be a stable idiot proof platform. Good Job. A+++

One of the main reasons I bought this app was to program my E71 X6 to close my trunk with remote.Ive had this app for over 6 months and still nothing.

Just after I bought my M3 the check engine light popped up. Turns out there was a bad tank of gas and it triggered a sensor. For less than the cost of very expensive dealership labor I was able to clear the error and do the simple coding on the E9x platform the app allows. Cant wait for additional improvements in the coming months and coding ability for the F3x/F8x platforms.

I updated to the latest version of the app which now has support for coding and service reset for my 2007 525i. Very nice user interface, plain English descriptions on the coding page gives you a description of the various options that you can tweak on the car and there are lots of them. Obviously this app can be used to read and clear error codes from all of the cars controllers. Again it is leaps and bounds better than your standard code reader. I am using it with the app manufacturers new wifi obd2 adapter. Had few questions which were answered quickly by the app development staff in Germany.

absolutely disrespectful. I cant believe I spent over $100 for something that doesnt work adapter + app

This, along with the OBD device you need to buy separately (widely available at online retailers) is an amazing solution to determining whats causing your "check engine" light. Consider that a visit to a dealer service center involves not only paying them a shop rate to plug in their $1000+ tool and charge you time and labor to just look at your fault codes (and then more $$ for highly marked up parts and labor), this app gives you the the same info. If you are a do it yourself kind of person, the fault code may reveal something relatively easy to fix yourself like a battery, ignition coil or O2 sensor replacement. It also could reveal something more serious that requires more expertise to resolve (and allow you to prepare to spend some $$$ to get it fixed by a pro)! You can also clear the engine light if the fault codes were generated because of an anomaly that isnt a permanent issue requiring any action at all. Extremely easy to use. Plug in your OBD device (purchased separately), connect your smartphone to the device private wifi, and start reading codes! I saved hundreds of $$ in the long run when I learned my faults were: ignition coil, O2 sensor and vanos solenoid. I was able to get those parts (new OEM) for about $225 and do 2 of the 3 myself. The other cost me an hour($100) labor from an independent mechanic. Dealer quoted me about $1000 in parts/labor to do those same items!

Looks like bmwhat sold out to Carly. So now everything I bought within the app no longer works. The wifi obd that I used worked absolutely great until this update. Now the app tells me I have to buy one of those. I didnt pay $50 for an app and numerous add ons to now be useless.

Bought this to code new battery in sisters 135i but it is not supported so I thought at least I can do some coding on my e86 Z4M Coupe. Well it only shows e85 Z4M Roadster but no big deal its basically the same car. However to my disappointment, coding is not supported for this car. What a waste of 45 dollars on this app and 75 dollars on the Carly wireless bluetooth adaptor. Very disappointed to say the least.

Works perfect. I am able to do coding to my 650i convertible using my iPad! AWESOME
