SoundRacer OBDII Engine Sounds

Nifty idea and works well with my OBDII. Connection via Bluetooth was quick and seamless, then I piped the audio through ANOTHER Bluetooth connection to my stereo. When the sounds started piping out the speakers.... Pure joy. Only downside, and a pretty big one, the sounds when the RPM jumps between gearshifts are not smooth. Almost sounds like a lagging which doesn't feel natural. Would be good if that can be improved. I'm running on a Nexus 5X, a cheap China OBD2 and a 2011 Kia Forte with OEM stereo.

Working perfect on my galaxy nexus as of early august 2013. Only complaint is all the cars sound fake except the ferrari. That makes up for the others I guess.

The engine sounds are synthetic and really fake sounding. It seems to just have two different sounds for each engine which vary in pitch depending on rpm, then it suddenly cuts between them when the rpm gets high enough.

Hello, im not able to get all three green icons in the obd-ll screen, the car icon keeps getting red although it recognize the obd, please help me and make it worth my money

Sound is delayed when using OBD, not good, regret the purchase. If they can fix it then usefull otherwise waste of money.

Please add Wi-Fi support!! Many of us has OBDII modules that are not Bluetooth equipped. I think the software is solid,but I would have NEVER purchased if I knew you were never going to add Wi-Fi connect functionality for OBDII.

No use whatsoever. Paid for the full version, won't connect to bluetooth odb2 module at all, where all other odb2 based apps such as Torque do seamlessly. Complete waste of money and a total rip off.

I've tried all the protocols but still can't get the car logo to turn green even the apps detected my OBD2. So i need refund for that. How to get the refund?

OS: Android 2.3.4. (i.e. old one) ; Car : 2009 VW Jetta (CAN bus) ; ELM327 adapter : the "better" one by BAFX $24. Folks seem to say that this is solid/stable. Torque App connected immediately and works perfectly. It is sensitive to throttle position, engine speed, fuel pressure, etc. SpeedRacer found the OBD2 and locked on at CAN 11/500. According to the green OBD2 icon and info displayed on screen, the app correctly identified and connected to the CAN-BUS. But the Car icon stays red and the engine speed shown by SpeedRacer never changes. I tried changing all available options etc. Nothing has worked so far. Great idea but without the rpm via the obd2 connection, this app is useless.

Everything works really well no problems at all however I do wish that you could add more vehicle sounds like a subaru, monster truck a quad bike and a formula 1 car

Its says connected to bluetooth device, but obd2 indicator still on red., damn its so disappointed.

Well after ordering the v8 transmitter and was out of stock i thought id try the app for just £1.84 it connected up as it was shown in videos no probs whats so ever, you can choose all diffrent cars, it worked well i had a buzz in lower gears 1,2.3 its much effective . i have subwoofer 1200watt and 7x10 speakers this sounds pritty beefy.. there is just a slight gear shift adjustment needs amending but its very close to perfect..All people who have give so bad reviews are harsh. it could be the ob2 hardware that not workin in most cases. i have turned heads , its not meant to be serious its a fun app ITS ONLY £1.84 if you dont like it or not working you get your money back YOU CANT LOOSE . Kenneth gets my thumbs up congrats.

It took about 5 mins to setup all of its settings after that it seemed to work flawlessly, sound dynamics could be improved though.

Your program is not connecting with my OBD 2 which I'm using for the last 6 months in my car with no problems if there is no update or solution for this problem please inform me so I can apply for refund

I tried this app 2 times and could not get it to work it sees my OBDII but does not respond to anything that my car is doing please refund my purchase

It connects to my OBD2 adapter, but fails to connect to ECU because the correct protocol is missing. Can you send me updates for ODB2 protocols?

Totally cant work and feedback got no reply at all.

Auto detect protocol doesn't work. Tried all manual still nothing. 2012 Chevy sonic. If no fix I will request refund.

only reason I downloaded this app is because of the obd 2 support. but the Bluetooth can't connect to it even thought the device I have is paired with the phone. what the hell is "new Bluetooth connection" and "old Bluetooth connection"? wtf does that even mean? can't get the adaptor to connect to th3 app at all.

cannot get the app to work., despite driving the same car they use in their promotional video. Contacted the developer and didn't get a response. Poor.

Already bought but cannot run more than 3 times without data!!! I want a refund!!!

Every application I have that connects to obd2 works just fine, and yet your application does not. I am able to connect to bluetooth, and the obd2 signal is received, yet the third car symbol stays red. I fiddled around with all the obd protocols but to no avail.

Connects very well on the elm device and on all my phones and tablets. Rpm reads without delay but the sound is delayed so its internal to the app and not the hardware. It does not run in the background . It needs to be open all the time.

Doesn't work. The free app works better.

The Muscle Car sounds like a worn out Chevy Camaro NOT a Shelby. The others sound somewhat OK at IDLE ONLY. Rise and fall sounds like a mid-90s midi chip, making them sound tinny and dreadful. Refunded. UPDATE: Gave it another try. It discovers the ODB II adaptor and sets a protocol, but does NOT talk to the ECU, despite assurances that it has all the protocols possible. Disgusted, disappointed, and dismayed, I advise you all to save your money and don't buy this app. Feel free to play with the freebie.

1 second audio delay on ELM 327..not acceptable! wast of money!

Is the worst money you can spend .is like somebody robbed you

Let me start out by saying i am not new to obdII Bluetooth apps. But this app just will not connect to my adapter. All my other adapters work without a fail, but this one. Won't work on my 2014 dart. Other cars I have tried are older but do work. Thus: The sounds do what it says, yes, but the actual sounds it produces are gawd awful. Completely unrealistic and not worth whatever price it is. Sadly, I didn't have time to refund. SAVE YOURSELF!

Doesn't do anything after connecting to obd2

Not respond , only 2 light up the blue tooth and obd turn green ...car icon still in red.help to solve this problem as I already purchased this apps thanks. Car model hyundai avante 2009.

This does not connect to my 2013 Volkswagen gti mk6 regardless of what protocol I chose. The third light never turns green

By time fiddled with it refund time went and does not work properly. I managed to get mustang working one time somehow but nothing since.volvo v40 phase 2 2002 protocol 9141-2 5 baud. Please help. Galaxy s5 android kit kat. Torque pro works just fine on this protocol so elm 327 working fine.more stars when working.

I can get it to connect however it constantly stops reading the data stream and updating my RPMs. Its basically stuck. In this state its a waste of money.

The engine sounds are synthetic and really fake sounding. It seems to just have two different sounds for each engine which vary in pitch depending on rpm, then it suddenly cuts between them when the rpm gets high enough.

Absolutely amazing application

OBD2 works well but I hate the sounds because they are almost movie-like... A plain, standard V8 as you would hear in real life (A 2005 Mustang GT with standard exhaust for example) with less video-game effects would be appreciated and more enjoyable than to ride Need for Speed on the way to work.

Of all the apps in Google play that plays supercar engine sounds via OBDII, yours didn't even make the grade. Of every phone I own, using the same generic ELM327 bluetooth adapter, it has worked on EVERY application downloaded that uses OBDII, EXCEPT THIS ONE, which it NEVER gone past "trying bluetooth connection" on both old and new methods, irrespectively of every OBDII protocol being configured for. Of all those 5,000 downloads, less than 1% got to work with their existing adapters and devices. But you left the rest of us in the dust. You ave two options: You fix this kind of issue, or you better pull it out from the store, for selling something that is now flagged as a total fraud.

Bought eBay obd. App doesnt connet to obd but works fine with torque and even a cheaper engine sound app which makes it even more annoying! Should of saved my money and got hardware version

I saw the original 12V units you attach to your car, however, they were pricy. I got this thinking it would be cool it was pulling from ODB-II but the app fails to get the RPM in any reasonable time, after that it only takes whatever RPM the engine was at for that fraction of a second and stays there. I have tried on Jelly Bean and KitKat and both fail, On S3 and S4, and also two different ODB-II Bluetooth adapters. Other apps all work fine as described. Just wish this one would start working. ISO15765-4CAN11/00 and app recommended ELM327 adapter.

I have a 1998 BMW 3 Series, and it does not recognise the OBD protocol. Unfortunately the OBD-II was only added to the BMW 3 Series in 2001, so I had to use an adapter to convert to OBD-II. I connected the ELM327 device and it connected to it just fine. If you could update the app so that I can use it, that would be great.
