Review on Autel AP200C MaxiAP: Advanced OBD2 Scanner with ABS Auto Bleed, Airbag Reset, Oil, Throttle, DPF, EPB, SAS, BMS Services | In-App Purchase | iOS & Android Compatible | Specific Vehicles by Scott Bradford

I didn't know what to expect from the AP200C so I was pleasantly surprised to receive such a powerful package with many Inclusive services! It's a tiny device, but don't let its small size fool you. Small enough to fit in a shirt pocket or purse, this little dynamo is packed with all the essential features. In fact, many advanced scanners that cost a lot more don't have some of the robust data capture capabilities that this AP200C easily offers. This device is not only compact, dynamic and powerful, but also offers a convenient Bluetooth function. This means you don't have to manually bind to the vehicle's OBD port to perform a wireless scan up to 33 feet away. Just download the app for Android or IOS and connect it to the scanner via your mobile phone. That's all. The companion app is well organized and handles complex tasks with ease. It's amazing how an object smaller than a bar of soap can process so much digital information so quickly and accurately! Truly amazing! The portability of the AP200C is particularly useful when access to a garage or workshop is not available. I intend to keep mine in the glove box of my car for emergencies. This tool can also be used at car auctions or dealerships or for personal inspections of private cars for sale. Simply connect the scanner to the OBD and instantly get the full history of most modern vehicles in seconds. Apart from an amazing set of full OBDII functions, AP200C can smoothly run SRS, BMS, ABS bleed, oil return, throttle as well as other more comprehensive higher level operations. Autel offers these and other diagnostics features as in-app purchases, so customers only have to pay for additional features when they need them. Why spend extra money on services you don't normally use? There are other Bluetooth OBD plug-in options on the market that do a decent job, but I personally don't know of a similarly compact model in the same price range. which contains so many top notch features. Autel developers have developed a very fine technology and combined it with a bug-free app to make the AP200C fun and enjoyable to use. Highly recommended! Pros: Compact design (app updatable) Sleek user interface Easy to use Speed Cons: No tablet support No case or carry case along with the included strap No lifetime free updates except OBDII
