New video up! I am sorry that this wasn't the very first one I did.... Cuz it should have been.
Don't hit the thanks button hit the Forgiveness button!
Another outstanding video but at about the 4:35 minute mark you mention that the MX+ only works with Apple (iOS), that's not entirely true. MX+ works with both iOS and Android. The benefits of going with the MX+ aside from working with iOS is it's supposed to be slightly faster than the MX version and it comes with advanced diagnostic. There is no advantage of using the MX+ with AlfaOBD.

That is what I was trying to get across. Did it not sound that way? Damn. I felt like I was clear..... Did it not make sense?

I watched it again, you state that "the MX+ only works with Apple"
You should have said something along the lines that the MX+ will work with Apple products but AlfaOBD is not available for Apple.

I added your comment from here to my comments section on YouTube.
Thanks for catching that.

Thanks so much for these. I am another visual learner! Just installed AlphOBD on my phone.
Had already ordered the MX+ for use with my other software so that is what I will be using.

Awesome!!!
Once you dig deep in that AlfaOBD thread, you will be astounded on what this thing can do.
Happy Modding!

Pluugged in the MX+ and used AlphaOBD last night to correct the mileage and engine hours.
Then just to try it I set the global windows down. Everything worked perfectly.
Your videos make it so easy to use. Thanks so much for them!

@big daddys house -- well done! I enjoyed watching the first video -- you really are entertaining. Good stuff. Disclaimer, I am a Taser user, but I was still interested in what you started -- er improved -- here.

Good stuff!!

Do you guys prefer AlphaOBD on laptop, tablet or phone? I just purchased a 2019 classic and am leaning toward the laptop.

I love it on my Moto Z4 Android phone. Real easy to use after watch the Big Daddy's House videos.

Neither at moment because it doesn't work. Just crashes my truck. Prefer my hypertech speed tool which actually works

Thanks for vids. Your log upload video actually worked. The original instructions linked on other link didn't work as I didn't see it tell you to go to body computer first before. So I kept getting blank logs

Yes, the premium cluster is more sensitive to light out messages due to LEDs than the basic cluster. I’ll PM you to see what you got going on, so not to clutter the video thread.

Sooooooo, Happy Thanksgiving to those of us in America and Happy Thursday to everyone else! Lol
This last month I've be building a website on my off time and want to get your opinion on it thus far. It's only about 25% complete but I would like feedback. Brutal honesty is encouraged. [emoji6]
