Yea I have used it quite a bit, it does a pretty good job giving you vehicle specific “possible problems” causing the code. I have a 2002 ford ranger that I use from time to time. It threw a lean code and gave me like 10 different possible causes.. so I looked up the code and found that it is commonly caused my a cracked vacuumed line.. makes sense lol. I have yet to fix it so idk if that is the problem or not. However the reader listed an air leak as the first few possible solutions. So it seemed like it was up to par with understanding what normally causes certain codes. From my understanding you don’t need cell service for it to work but I am not 100% sure. If it is true tho when on a trail, it could be useful. Here is a screenshot of that code for the ranger. Hope it works haha

Now the only issue I have had with it is on my moms car, she has a 2005 Chevy Aveo.. the reader simply will not work on her car. It will try, but fails to connect every time. But every other car I have tried it on it works great.
It also gives you live feed of certain components and that is pretty cool.
All in all if you have the 100$ to buy one I say go for it, it’s a fun tool to have and sometimes makes seeing a check engine light not as bad.. at least I can use this gadget haha
Also I believe torx makes one as well but a lot cheaper, I have no experience with it but many say it is almost identical to this one by BlueDriver.. so if money is a concern maybe look into that one?
