3. Torque Pro (OBD 2 & Car) (Kshs 395)
If you’re a car enthusiast, you’ll probably want to check out this one. The Torque Pro app turns your Android device into a car diagnostics and performance monitoring tool. The developer says the app lets you “see what your car is doing in real-time, get OBD fault codes, car performance, sensor data and more” simply by connecting it to a compatible OBD 2 Bluetooth adapter. The app apparently offers a customizable dashboard where you can choose which widgets and gauges to display. It uses your phone’s GPS to log your location alongside engine data from your car, allowing you to pinpoint exactly where you were when specific engine events occurred. Additionally, the app functions like a diagnostic scanner, reading and clearing fault codes from your car’s computer, which can help troubleshoot problems and save on repair costs.
From the description, it seems a Kshs 395 investment in Torque Pro app wouldn’t be such a terrible idea, which perhaps explains why the app is in this week’s top 5 trending Android apps in Kenya.
