Diagnostics Apps

What interface are you going to use with them. The VAG 1.1 software even if it supports the latest cars is going to require an interface which supports CAN so a cheap generic one is not going to work.
The apps which display turbo boost you will need to make sure they specifically work with VAG cars as they do not have an actual pressure gauge and instead it has to be worked out using the engine speeds and MAF data. I know for example that the popular Torque app works but its engine diagnostics is pretty poor as it doesnt produce the same fault codes as VCDS does as it only supports ODB2.

I was looking at using one of these to hook it up with.

Not sure if they're any good so hoping someone could advise.
I just thought this might be a cheap and easy way to check for fault codes and delete them myself.
Thanks for your reply.

Don't waste your time you'll only get generic codes
If thats the kinda thing you want look at x431 auto diag android or idiag for apple its just the adaptor 40-109 usd ,each brand software 66usd each
These have great coverage from personal experience i would stand over x431 than snap off
