  1. MobileCommandISR beta iPhone/iPad and side app update

    Originally I wasn't planning on it partially because of the liability issues. However, I have figured out a way in which I can figure out some of the functions and features in apps like Carista, turning off the seat belt ding and things like that. So I'm investigating that and might add that to...
  2. MobileCommandISR beta iPhone/iPad and side app update

    I am getting very close to finishing the MobileCommandISR beta. The beta is nearly done.... I plan to submit it to Apple this week. Once it clears review I can start putting TestFlight builds out to testers and validating it across the rest of the TNGA-F vehicles. That means Tacoma and Tundra...
  3. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    For those of you following along on this thread, just wanted to give a quick update. I did a long cross-country trip testing the app, found a few minor little bugs, so those have been corrected. I'm now setting up the test flight for beta testers. I have tested Carista ODB@ adapter as well as...
  4. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    Yeah just updated with a link to all the details on the app which also has the adapter information...Thanks!
  5. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    The Vgate vLinker MC+ is the one I am using, so I know it works :-). I got it because it had a lot of functionality ...so I am building against it...not sure I am using averring it can do as I am really limited by what Toyota puts out on the CAN Bus, etc. but so far I have been able to do...
  6. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    This is the one I got and have been testing with. https://amzn.to/4fL4XJ2 They're pretty easy to use. They just slot into the ODB2 port, which is underneath your steering wheel to the left, and that's it. And then you'll just link to it with the Bluetooth. You don't do it in the Bluetooth...
  7. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    You will need to have a ODB2 Bluetooth adapter because that's were it actually gets its data. So there are lots of different ones that are available. I have a list of ones that I've been testing, one I've tested and the ones I will be testing Once I'm finished with all the testing and the beta...
  8. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    Little bit of an update. I have completed build 22. I have gotten the Pitch/Roll. traction. gotten horsepower. So a lot of this stuff is coming together. I have a cross-country trip from Atlanta to Arkansas this weekend were I'm really going to be testing it heavily. But here are a couple...
  9. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    That’s a fair concern, but the 30-versus-100 figure isn’t a general BLE limitation. Some inexpensive BLE adapters are slow, but good BLE adapters can transmit much faster. The actual update rate also depends on the vehicle, ECU response time, number of requested PIDs, adapter firmware, and how...
  10. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I currently use the Vgate vLinker MC+ in my research, as I started looking at building this app, that one came out as having the most information available. I don't know how much different it is than any of the other ones, but this is a list that I sort of have currently that we're going to be...
  11. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I’m getting ready to begin real-world beta testing for MobileCommandISR, I’m looking for Toyota owners willing to help test the app with their vehicles and Bluetooth OBD-II adapters. A sincere thank-you to everyone who volunteers. Your interest and willingness to help mean a lot. I won’t be...
  12. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I'm not sure how Toyota does it. It's a mystery to me. But what I'm going to be doing is a one-minute running average based on the fuel flow and the total fuel in the tank and then also taking into account the EV portion of it so that over any one minute in time you'll have a fairly accurate...
  13. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    Yeah, just displaying the data though I will capture the data for a trip and I’ll have the ability for the user to capture all the data and use it later on. It will be encrypted on the phone and only accessible by that user and exported by that user.
  14. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    Did a bunch of testing/PID Sniffing last night and here is all the data I can currently capture from the ODB2 I will continue to "sniff" out the other items, right now I am working diligently to find the Roll/Pitch info. At minimum I can use the iOS devices accelerometer and pipe that data into...
  15. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    It should work with all Gen 6 vehicles, including Tundras, Tacomas, and Sequoias. Although I can't validate that yet, but I'm going to see if the dealer will let me test it at their location. But all the TNGs should use the same PID code. So it'll work across all forerunners, six gen.
  16. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I don't know if I’ll have it in the thousands in the final designs,. , although that is the level of detail that the system does provide. I may make that an option in the settings so, individuals can decide accurate they want it to be. Also, working on a better true distance to empty based on...
  17. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    Great....I am working through a few details now figuring out how to set things up with "test flight" which allow me to give people beta versions to test....standby Also just mocking up some car play screen now
  18. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I've done all my testing is with the vGate vLinker MC+. All the data you are looking for is available in the TechStream app (which is the one the Toyota service centers use). I am slowly capturing all of them so I can add other things to this app or another larger app I am looking at building...
  19. Building iOS App for 6th Gen (fuel, average miles, and other data)

    I have not written code in over 20 years, though I'm an engineer and work in the tech sector. But with all the AI vibe coding, it's really gotten me interested in writing apps. In fact, I even have an app on the Apple App Store now (AI Tagging App/Plug in for Adobe Lightroom). So I decided...
  20. OEM Switches that ACTUALLY Match factory switches

    I am looking for OEM style switches to control my lights (bumper lightbar and roof rack lighter) that look like the OEM switches. It seems all the ones I have seen have blue backlight and not white and the laser etch symbols are tough to see during the day. I purchased a few and installed...
