Am I looking at the wrong Torque? Doesnt work on newer versions of Android, and their webpage recommends a bunch of $150 OBD BT readers that are all discontinued a decade ago.

It's not the freshest app but it works

Huh, I have a OnePlus 8t on Android 14, so one version behind. There are other apps that'll read obd2, but I haven't tried any of them so I can't make a recommendation. Torque's been the standard for years though, so it's too bad that it's apparently behind on updates

Panlong Bluetooth OBD2 OBDII Car... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PJPHEBO?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
