    Hi

    Can you please explain a little bit more?

    Do you click at your car → Edit connections and then OBD connection button?

      Yes. The ABRP app shows iOS vlink during OBD scans, but not Android vlinks. This wasn't a problem before, but it's now become a major issue. (Note: The phone's Bluetooth connection is fine; the problem is with the ABRP OBD scan.)

        You need to select the iOS vlinks. ios stands for BLE.

              There are no problems with other OBD applications.

                According to my colleague ios stands for BLE while Android stands for classic BT. So if you want to connect you need to select the ios.

                        Hey, if you want to use OBD with ABRP, you need to use the BLE interface of the OBD dongle, which is the one with iOS in its name. So disconnect the Android one, and just use the iOS named one in the app. Those are just names, not really OS related interfaces. iOS means the Bluetooth Low Energy interface, Android is the classic BT interface, which is not supported by iOS. BLE works on both though.

                          İos =iphone

                          BLE =Bluetooth Low Energy interface

                          Ok.ok……

                          Could you send me a YouTube link on how to connect an Android phone to an iOS Bluetooth device?

                            just select “ios-vlink” in ABRP when trying to connect to the dongle. You probably need to disconnect the “android-vlink” from your BT settings before.

                              It used to work when I connected it to the Android Vlink dangle, but why isn't it working now?

                                We only support BLE since forever, so it probably never worked as intended from the app.
