AndrOBD is an open-source Android application that connects to a car's on-board diagnostics (OBD) system via any ELM327-compatible adapter over Bluetooth, USB, or Wi-Fi. It reads and clears fault codes, records and charts live sensor data, and supports plugin extensions such as MQTT publishing.

Use cases

  • read and clear car fault codes from my phone
  • view live OBD sensor data on Android
  • record and export vehicle diagnostics to CSV
  • connect an ELM327 adapter via Bluetooth, USB, or Wi-Fi
  • publish OBD data to an MQTT broker
  • test OBD app features without a car using demo mode

When to choose

  • you have an Android device and an ELM327-compatible OBD adapter
  • you want a free, open-source alternative to commercial OBD apps
  • you need fault code reading, live data charts, dashboards, or head-up display
  • you want to extend OBD data handling with plugins like MQTT or GPS

When to avoid

  • you need an iOS or desktop OBD application
  • your vehicle or adapter does not support ELM327-compatible OBD-II
  • you need manufacturer-specific proprietary diagnostics beyond standard OBD-II
