Thank you for this very nice video: your opinion and your criticisms are justified and very useful, because you can't realize it until you've bought the product. I find the price of subscriptions completely excessive, especially if you're not a professional. That's why I bought the A30M, and I'd be very curious to hear your opinion and your test on A30M !
Thank you, I didnt test A30 yes, but it looks very good on paper. Full diagnostic features and no subscription cost, that is very rare in advanced devices like the A30M
Thank you for the honest write up. I nearly bought this. Then I seen the OBDeleven review. Unfortunately its not much use to me either as I'd like to change some settings within the car but its a Mitsubishi L200 (2016). At least I haven't wasted money 👍
in Serbia, we sell a carly adapter with a cracked application (premium version) for 120e, which means that there is no annual subscription... you pay once and that's it
Works only on BMW contrary to the ad which says it is universal! Don't works correctly on other cars... Refuse to reimburse based on German laws. License triggered after a single attempt. 14-day cancellation right not respected. Annual subscription renewal without notice of expiry - difficult contract cancellation. To flee !
They just tried to take a 3rd subscription payment of £145.89 from my credit card today. I’ve already tried to cancel my subscription a year ago and they ignore emails. Am waiting on them responding to a second cancellation request or the threat of legal action
I got it after 10 days. Tried it on multiple cars and no problems so i can't say it is bad other than subscription trick which i saw after i already got it.
I wasted money on this as well. I only wanted coding and misunderstood that it was $10 more. When you go to the site to upgrade it's actually almost $70 more if not done in the original purchase. The basic is USELESS! Although it scanned the codes, it didn't display the code and instead said it would "email" the code to me.????? Ridiculous. Additionally, the code was never emailed. When you try to read the code on your phone, it asks you for more money. I basically purchased a useless piece of garbage! I already have a Foxwell for both my Jaguar and BMW that give me everything I need except coding. I have emailed them 5 times and still nothing but an automated robot response.......How are they still in business? Is this even legal?
Most people have similiar experiences but I guess no one wants to take any legal action since it is not "that much" money. And they put lot of money in marketing... I see lot of car youtubers promoting it, always ads on youtube etc...
carly cheated on me too. I bought premium for €100, but they ask me to pay an additional monthly fee. and without payment he doesn't show anything at all. damn scammer company😖😖
You got no chance of cancelling this…they will not respond and you’ll have to change your payment details ( lost card gets you a new number) ask me how I know🤯 they would not respond to any contact about cancelling for months but guess what, the day after the renewal payment was supposed to come out ( in never went through as I changed card No) they were in contact straight away🤯to say payment had failed 😂😂
I bough this peice of shit but I have not received it yet. I payed £92.16 and when I found out that it was rubbish they will not return my money even though I have not got it yet!! They say that the scanner is free but the app use is £92.16 for the year!!
It's a scam for sure. To the point where they should be investigated for Shady business practices and fraud. This is a garbage product that only will read codes for one car I own.
I not belive nothing of the scanners you connect with bletoth, the suport its not of the best eather 👎 Trust more the scanners you conect direct too obd cable , like icarsoft fore exsample 😊
Well I don't know if you troll or work for Carly, but I paid 149€ for Carly so I would have to continue on the 149€/year subscription since they trick you into thinking that is one-time payment by hiding the fact that you only pay for one year. And in addition the scanner is free, so they can refuse your request for money refund because you "only pay for subscription." I also have Carly Review as blog post: www.iamcarhacker.com/carly-obd-review/ And comment section is full of people unhappy with purchase and Carly's shady practices. Are they all full of sh*t as well?

Thank god I searched it up first it almost caught me
Thankyou! I was all ready to buy the Carly but def not now, I'll look for an alternative👍
Glad it helped, it really isnt worth the price.

They do indeed made it difficult to find out that it's a subscription. Shady practices indeed. I ended up purchasing something else for my car.
True, they should put some money from marketing to actually make the device good

Glad it helped you stay away from Carly, and OBDeleven is great for BMW/VAG but not that useful for other brands.

Zdravo gde moze da kupim daj applikacija?
Just got scammed last night, 74 quid I paid thinking it was forever
Yea, I made same mistake paid 150€ 🫣
Same
I just ordered this thing. Will stop the order. I was expecting more coding functions.
Works only on BMW contrary to the ad which says it is universal!
Don't works correctly on other cars...

Yes based on the AD i thought I am getting great scanner, but reality was completely different.
They just tried to take a 3rd subscription payment of £145.89 from my credit card today. I’ve already tried to cancel my subscription a year ago and they ignore emails. Am waiting on them responding to a second cancellation request or the threat of legal action
They won’t cancel it, and won’t respond to any contact that concerns this, you gotta change your card number ( lost card👍)
I paid on PayPal and it did not setup a subscription through PayPal.
But they will not let you use it after 1-year is over
@iamcarhacker then I'll bin it. They won't get more money out of me.
Can I turn off the seatbelt mics on Audi TT roadster?
Sure OBD11 can do it. Its better than carly anyway
Can you activate my apple carplay in my GLC?
Better to buy then the Bmito or the motorsure obd
Carista doesnt support E46 or Z3. Do you know of an app that does for coding purposes only?
Try Bimmercode.
Unfortunately, Bimmercode does not support BMW E46 or Z3
I got it after 10 days. Tried it on multiple cars and no problems so i can't say it is bad other than subscription trick which i saw after i already got it.
Youre one of the few people happy with it 🤭

You try stopping your yearly subscription….no chance, I had to change my credit card🤯
In the UK you can block companies etc from taking payments via subscriptions.
It's not hard.
Just block them after paying it - done lol.
Thank you!
Welcome!
I paid £100 for this scanned only for the mercedes cars just to find out the whole thing is useless 🤦♂️ scammers
Same
Well shit, I just bought one. Thankfully it was heavily discounted. I'm gonna use it for a couple things then cancel my subscription asap.
Same 70 quid and paid 33 extra for all cars, thinking I can use it when I get a new car

You guys are tripping. 100 for a year. Yeah. No problem. Better than your scanner OBD scanner anywhere. If not post a reference for better ones!
Its not tripping because for 100/year you can have thinkdiag2 which does 20x more

Bluetooth is not really issue, even pro scanners from best brands use bluetooth...but carly is sh*t
DAMN!
,🔥
I use it for my BMW and Porsche no problem at al
You talk full of sh....
You talk about 150 a year 🤔 that not treu ..
