You think that with all the cars getting around these days with these systems that manufactures of the "better" obd dongles would be giving us a program to use on the in dash screens. This would be so much better than your phone or tablet stuck somewhere. Would also be a good selling point. Not sure what limitation are involved though. Your thoughts?

It is not a Sync issue or a developer issue.

Specifications for apps are set by Apple and Google, this is the issue. Basically like video, moving gauges would be a distraction and is another reason I have my own gauges in view without having to look across at the screen.

Unfortunatly it is what it is, there are pros and cons.
