Who would be interested in a tuner that flashed via your Android phone with datalogging and code clearing for around $200?

On my last car, this was doable and I'm sure the dev would be willing to work with this platform as it's a lot simpler tuning wise if there's enough support. It's an app you get on the play store, get a ODB2 to USB, and an otg cable and it's plug and play.

Ain't no way I would let any Android powered anything near my ECM or TCM but thats just me. My Android phone is prone to crapping out sometimes not something you want to have happen mid-flash.

Its completely safe. Quite a few people on the other platform had their battery die mid flash. You just restart the process, won't brick your ECU.

Either way, the dev said he wasn't interested.
