Map becomes laggy when OBD device is connected

Bug Reports

I am experiencing a performance issue with the ABRP app on iOS.

When my OBD device is connected to ABRP, the map becomes very laggy and does not run smoothly. The map movement and navigation animations frequently stutter.

When I disconnect the OBD device, the map works normally and smoothly again.

My setup:

  • Vehicle: Kia EV6

  • Phone: iPhone

  • Platform: iOS

  • OBD device: Vgate iCar Pro 2S

  • ABRP version: 1.2.3 (4567)

The issue appears specifically when ABRP is receiving live data from the OBD adapter.

Could you please check whether this is a known issue or if there are any recommended OBD/Bluetooth settings that could resolve it?

Where does this happen?

    Thanks for reporting! We are going to release an ABRP 7.1.8 beta in the coming days; you can sign up for it using Installing the ABRP Beta version - we think this could solve your problem.

    In any case, if you can also submit a bug report (Display & Appearance → Show bug button, then press the bug button on the map) and we can see the details of what is happening.
