An innovative new product was unveiled during the APR distributor conference that everyone can be excited about; what will easily be one of the most powerful automotive apps in the world. APR has not yet provided a full press release, but they offered QuattroWorld an exclusive sneak peek. The product demonstration of the app through an iPhone showed multiple uses including the ability to change ECU programs, a virtual dyno, high speed data logging, fault code scanning, acceleration measurement, and much more.
This new diagnostic app is estimated to be released by Waterfest. It will initially be available for iPhone and iPad at launch, and will be expanded for availability on Android and Windows devices. What’s even more exciting? No cables…it will use Wifi for Apple products, and Bluetooth and/or Wifi for Android and Windows.
“Application development for mobile smart devices is certain to be the next evolution of automotive communication technology and APR is dedicated to fully integrating elegant solutions to further enhance the driving experience with the next generation of EMCS.” -Keith Lucas, APR Director of Sales and Marketing

Awesome news..
Oooooh, I likey!
Available in 2 weeks?
Honestly I’d rather see them put more effort into a TDI tune than a flashy app.
When will this app be released in the App Store?
Just make sure to build it for Windows Phone as well, since that will be the dominant mobile OS by 2015 or earlier according to multiple market analysis. There are a ton of gear heads on Windows with APR’d cars I know who would die for this.
