AlfaOBD compatibility

[Rlaf75]

I'm going to get the alfaOBD app and I'm curious if anyone used these or know if they are compatible with the alfaOND app?

I use that obd scanner. I have a Tazerdt, so don't need bypass harness

Does the TazerDT do the same thing as alfaOBD?

Does the TazerDT do the same thing as alfaOBD?

Yes and no. There are things they both do. But there are live features the TazerDT gast that alfaOBD can't do, and there are changes you can make with alfaObd that haven't been set up on the TazerDT. Theoretically the TazerDT could do everything alfaObd can, but it would need programmed to do it by Z-Automotive.

Is the tazerDT really $300? The alfaOBD app is like $50 and the bluetooth connector is $25 and the bypass cable is like $20. I don't know what the differences are between alfa and the tazer because I have zero experience with either. The only real things I want to do is cancel the fog light drop out with high beams, add the tailgate down warning light and add the right side auto dimming mirror if possible. As far as diagnostics, I'm a mechanic so I'm not worried about that so I don't think I can justify the extra cost for the tazerDT
