In real time you can only log on to the vehicle once using the app / dongle. If you want to see how it was and then make changes then before you start do a backup of the car. Then with one device you log on to the car and get ready to make your changes With the second device you can look at the backup (offline) and hopefully that gives you what you need. The other option you have is to take a backup of the car you have with settings you want, then take a backup of the car you want to change But the two files into excel or some other comparison tool and this will enable you to compare and see what changes are required.

I will give a try, To log in with the devices. This exel way is good but really tedy, long, and complicated / : The best way could be if in real time we could log in, with 2 devises, easy to see Control units in one devise, and make changes in the connected OBD device. Simple and fast. Probable using a second account, from another. OBDEleven should find a solution for this. I understand they are protecting from pirates, and hackers, but probable can be another solution.
Thanks , Wish yu a nice day

I use the excel method a lot to compare pre and post changes and if both cars are the same then its a simple if statement to compare two cells. If the cars are different then agree its more complicated but not a show stopper.
As per my flow above you can in offline mode (connected to internet not car) see all the details of the control unit of the car you are trying to copy and you dont need physical access to that car.
Then with your other device connected to your car you can go through and view and make the changes to match the second car, you do not need a second account to do this.
You can with one account connect to two cars at once but you have to use different devices and have two dongles.
Hope that makes it a bit clearer.

I been doing tzhat too, many times. But is a lot of work. Found a way , slow but is working. 1.- Log in with the Tablet ( Just log the App with out the OBD Connected to the car) 2.- Open my garage and select unit and control unit I want to see ( Copy the data ) 3.- After that go for example to Adapations open it, and aftzer that you can scroll the page of line. 4.- Turn of the wify for Tablet, and start OBDeleven in Cell wit the OBD Conected to car , and star checking the diferences to make changes, and save.
Is really slow , becouse every time you finish one section, you must set off your cell conection ( OBD) , to set Tablet online again and change to long code, for example. And start the view process.

Garko no i have not seen anything about saving data on dongle, if anything I would have thought the save would be on the Cloud as that is how its done normally. But just so I understand you have two identical cars and you want to copy the coding from one to the other If that is correct then the long coding can be updated with copy and past very easily. Adapations the current method is one buy one and based on how you are doing it now I would have thought an Excel compare would be the best solution. This way you will have a single document with a full list of all the changes you need to make. After you have made all changes you can then very easily compare final results to ensure no errors.

Well.. I´m askig becouse here in Germany a company they sale adaptations cables and with dongles to update the coding, something silillar like the Apps we have here in OBDeleven. Hope somebody know how this guys are doing this.
I´m assking becouse I´m on the cars business, and do upgrades by myself in certain cars. Of curse all of them VW From 2015 to 2020 Upgrades like From Hallogen to Matrx. From Analog to Digital Tacho Front cameras for Light Assist Side Assist Kessy and Easy Open Displays. TMPS Electric Towbars And others.
But is teddy to be doing coding for all this cars when all of them are MQB the same.

yes I am aware of KUFATEC and OBDApp and many other which are not cheap and are one use only (sorry do only one thing)
I am sure that OBD11 could build something like that by storing info on the cloud and allowing you to download it but there solution for this is the one click app I am guessing.
But put a request in the request section of forum and you never know.
