5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need in one scanner, best Android based scanner
UPDATE: This scanner does allow access to the Android home screen and does have Google Play Store. The Google Play store allows me to install Android Apps and tools to use, like email, photo editor, screen recorder, and 3rd party hardware (thermo imager).I'm a career flag rate mechanic and love using the x431 to scan, diagnose, program, and rest codes.I assume you've read the x431 "description", but now you want to validate your purchase.Is it worth it?Well let me explain how I use the x431 (daily), to make me extra money repair vehicles.Every vehicle the enters the service department requires a multipoint inspection before any customer concerns are addressed. After the multipoint I address customer concerns and suggest maintenance and repairs based on vehicle mileage, vehicle age, and worn components. Most mechanics use their vehicle scanners to ONLY scan vehicles with concerns. I USE THE x431 TO SCAN EVERY VEHICLE.While performing my multipoint inspection and looking under the vehicle, I can wirelessly scan the vehicle for current and/or historical problems (not all codes generate a check engine light). Once completed, I email the vehicle scan to the client along with the multipoint inspection and/or suggested services and repairs.This added service (free scan) to my multipoint inspection, has built trust and respect with my clients. Could you use this same strategy with other scanner? Well yea... But the x431 makes the process fast and simple. I do not need to stay in the vehicle during the scan, because the OBD2 interface is wireless; the tablet stays on my tool box. Once the OBD2 interfaced (VCI) is installed the x431 auto detects the vehicle VIN and runs an "All Scan" with the click on one button. After the scan I can send the report from the same screen, on the tool. Other scanners make you export the scan to PDF, then save it to a thumb drive/cloud, then email it to the client. TIME IS MONEYHere are some great examples of courtesy "ALL SCANS" making me money:2015 Honda Civic:I found a code for "Alternator Output Low", the code was "Historical" but the key cycle ID was recent. I informed the customer of my findings and suggested an alternator test; the vehicle has over 125,000 miles so the odds the alternator is slowing failing exists. Using an amp clamp and DVM, I monitored the alternator amp/volt output, then used the x431 to change the alternator output. The alternator performance test failed when I set the output to max; the alternator was replaced and I repeated the test to demonstrate the new alternator did fix the problem. Some will say turning on all the vehicle loads is the same thing, but disagree, the x431 Bidirectional support ensures the Engine Control Module commands the alternator to output. 1 hour diag, 1.5 hour alternator replacement2017 F250 King Ranch Edition: All Scan revealed a problem with the automatic running board on the driver and passenger side. The vehicle is equipped with runner boards that extend when you open the door and retract when you close the door. When the running boards are retracted they have a seamless look, and I missed it at first glance. The customer just bought the truck and didn't know these running boards where a feature. I upsold 1hr diag to determine the fault and quickly learned each motor was unplugged. Plugging each motor back in did make the code change to historical but the running boards didn't operate correctly when I opened the doors. Using the x431 I used the bidirectional support feature to command the running boards up and down; this proves the circuit from the computer to the running board motor is good, but the physical switch that commands the running boards to drop has a problem. I discovered each door had a problem with the latches due to previous hail damage repair. I replaced the door latches and the problem was resolved. 1 hour diag, 4 hour door lock replacement x42015 Subaru Forester. The check engine light was on but the customer didn't mention the light being on. My scan revealed a P0420 for the bank 1 catalytic. The customer assured my they know about the code and they've cleared it several times; they just don't have the $2500 to replace the catalytic. I then responded by saying "Did you a P0420 test performed? Because a P0420 code is not a part number". The customer approved the diagnostics, using the x431 I discovered the front O2 sensor was reacting slow. I used the screen recorder function and sent the graphed data to the client via email. Over the phone I walked the customer through the video and explained the diagnostic procedure I performed. The front O2 sensor was replaced and the readiness monitors all checked green. 1 hour diag, 2 hour O2 sensor Replacement.I also use the x431 to perform all the advertised service functions, service resets, and bi-directional support everyday (without problem). I just wanted to show you how this tool can money before the customer has a complaint. My customer's love this service and they've been more accepting of purchasing tune-ups, flushes, and other services.
5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for automotive technicians.
The scan tool is better than my Matco Tool scan tool I have. The Launch also does way more The my matco. It has a different layout but it seems to be alot faster and more versatile than the matco. Also there alot more tools I can buy for it making it more efficient. I would recommend this launch to anyone that's in the automotive industry or a serious do it your seller. Its also more user friendly than the snap-on on the market.
1.0 out of 5 stars Could not register
If customer support figures into your purchasing decision take the time to figure out what you are buying. When I followed the instructions contained in manual I got a different outcome from the one identified therein. This is an internationally configured device and as such no support in the USA is available. There are other potential issues as well because of it not being configured for the USA market. When I called Launch Tech the US distributor for Launch I made this discovery. There are issues with purchasing new updates after the two years of free updates expires. I was never able to resolve the the registration issues and because of these problems I’m returning it. The seller may be an authorized for worldwide sales by Launch but these I’m told are not specific to the US market and as such numerous functionality issues may occur.I neglected to state in the above that during my attempts to register this device I kept getting a message that the component I was attempting to register was already registered to a different account.This indicates to me that I’m not the only one returning this item. Repackaged return? Seek out posts online that identify the issues with not buying a device intended for the US market.

No lo pienses, si estas en la industria de los carros vale la pena, lo mejor sus actualizaciones de 2 años, a mi me funciona al 100%
3.0 out of 5 stars Graphing is laggy
Purchased in 2024, I have had it hooked to roughly eight different vehicles from Honda, ford, dodge, chevy and vw. Works fine. The unit is lagging in the graphing. When troubleshooting fuel trims, trying to zoom in is impossible. Not sure why. I have e had it close out on me a couple times for no apparent reason as well.Update, so far the scanner has worked well. I dropped it a star because it constantly wants me to log in when booted up. Then I have to get code from a china website that take a few minutes if it shows up just to put into the unit to access a item I spent a fair amount of money on. Its like its not really yours. If that email doesn't show up your not able to get into use that scanner.
