Torque pro app ?

Hey.
So I was playing with my new ELM 327 Bluetooth Obdii and torque pro app and I noticed it's not very accurate when it comes to 0 to 60 mph. I haven't changed any of the settings on it, So I was wondering if anybody is using it and if there is anything I can change in the sittings to get more accurate readings.
Thank you !

Nope not much you can do. OBDII is generally somewhat laggy. On top of that, your odometer and speedometer are read from the rear wheels. And since torque reads from those parameters and wheelspin is a thing, it's generally inaccurate.

Yeah, the 0-60 and quarter mile times are pretty off for sure. I don't use it for that at all, once I found out how bad it is.
