Don’t be fooled!

Requires subscription for individual use.
This used to be decent but now requires subscription. Now I regret previously buying the OBD2 Carista device.
I use it for my personal car(s), not as a commercial tool; there’s no reason to charge a subscription fee for this.
And a one time fee for $10/month is too expensive. Bought their hardware, now they’re trying to get even more money out of you. Shame on them. Just greedy.
There are better free options out there for diagnostics and much cheaper generic OBD2 devices. Don’t be fooled!
Do not recommend, and will not support future devices/services.
——-
I suggest making this completely free for up to 2 cars per year. Your ratings and downloads will go up, and users who will actually get use out of it to be worth the subscription fee will rise as well.

Great value

Very happy to see updates and additional support for my mk7 GTI increasing the value of the Carista. I feel like there used to be monthly subscriptions that were better than the weekly ones. A week is sometimes not enough to review the changes and decide whether you want to keep them or not. You cannot undo a change if your subscription expires.
Overall a great tool for the money. Looking forward to more features and customization coming.

Carista - Catch 22

Catch 22 - In order to use the Carista adapter, you must suscribe to the introductory offer, which is 1 month free, but by doing that your suscription will renew at $52.99/year unless cancelled within 30 days of the « purchase ». Problem is that the provided link to the Carista web site, that should allow you to cancel your suscription does not allow you to do anything...!!!

Audi Q5 FY 2017+

Bought this thing over a year ago, Audi FY 2017+ years as not supported at the time, which I knew and it was okay. Used it a few times during trial and emailed the guys about the supporting 2017+ Q5 and they said they’re working on it and stuff like that. Yet we’re still waiting for support to come out after a year and a half... and still nothing. I emailed them once again and they totally changed their mind and said they’re not gonna work on it any time soon, BS!

Works well but totally over priced.

It did a great job customizing my VW Passat but it’s grossly overpriced.

Great app but too expensive

The app works exactly as advertised, I was able to reset my service due warning and make some customizations I never knew possible on my Audi. Great job guys! However, the only reason I cannot give it 5 stars is because of the ridiculous yearly pricing! I find this app seriously overpriced. It seems to me that for a regular user who needs the app roughly twice a year to reset some service due warning it shouldn't cost that much! Why can't we just pay one time fee and that's it?...It seems much more suitable...

Great for my 2014’ SQ5

I’ve been able to make the rear brake service easily with the app. Plus some lightning and windows/roof customization ;-)
Hopefully I’ve been able to do them all during the trial period... I would not pay 52.99/years for customizing...

Slow AF

One time I tried to scan my 2015 VWGTI for trouble codes and it drained the entire battery. The next time I tried it took 35 minutes to get to 90%
Any other app on the market would’ve scanned the car 10 - 20 times in that amount of time. It’s time to step up your game guys, wait times are an EXTREME ISSUE!

What happened to Code reading?

Code reading used to be free! What happened?
Your premium plan is a bit much just for me to clear an engine code.
A $1 day pass might fly. Even then.
I love the simplicity of your app. but the price change is a bummer.
