Deep scans work best with UstaOBD.

UstaScan works with most ELM327 Bluetooth adapters for the basics. For deep scans and the most stable connection, use UstaOBD, designed and tested by us together with the app.

Already have an adapter? Deep scan also works on good-quality adapters such as: OBDLink MX+ · vLinker MC+ · vLinker MS · OBDLink CX · OBDCheck BLE+

On iPhone and iPad, use a Bluetooth LE or MFi adapter. Very cheap clones, often labelled v1.5, can drop the connection or miss protocols.

Other brand names belong to their owners. OBDLab is not affiliated with them.

Questions before you download.

Will UstaScan work with my adapter?

UstaScan works with UstaOBD and most ELM327-compatible Bluetooth adapters. For deep scans and a stable connection we recommend UstaOBD, OBDLink MX+, vLinker MC+ or vLinker MS. Very cheap clones can drop the connection or miss protocols.

Do I need to pay to scan my car?

No. Reading and clearing fault codes across all systems and viewing live data are included. Extras like the HUD, AI report and used-car check can be unlocked with a short video or a one-time Premium payment.

Does it work on diesel cars?

Yes, as long as the car supports OBD2. In Europe that covers diesel cars from 2004 onward.

Can clearing codes damage my car?

No, but clearing a code does not fix the fault. If the problem is still there, the warning light comes back. Fix the cause first, then clear.

Which languages does the app support?

UstaScan is available in English, Korean and Arabic, with a full right-to-left layout for Arabic.
