Hello guys, I have recently bought Pro version and it is very good with real connections with vag car electronics.
But where is dashboard page? I don't need scan my car every day. I extremely need some individual live data parameters, grouped in one "home"/dashboard page, with adjustable update rate for each. And secondary will be also high appreciate availability to add some buttons for individual basic setting onto the same home/dashboard page. Thanks in advance for any response. PS I think lots of people share this desire. Look at the millions Torque Pro downloads from market, in spite of the fact that it's simple poor dashboard for most cars.

There is currently no "dashboard" option like in Torque Pro. It is a feature that we would all like to see however. Currently, there is only the option to view the live values coming from a single channel. Not even VCDS has a dashboard option either, but it will allow you to graph and log up to 4 channels at a given time (so you can easily build your own dyno-sheet knowing your car's weight (including driver).
Eurodyne's Maestro tool has a nice dashboard option, but it's layout can't be adjusted like that of Torque Pro.
Edit: VCDS can log all channels at once, but polling is slower (for obvious reasons).

Thanks for the answer. That's why I'm posting in "request" section VCDS is another world of usage and its not useful in every day driving. So why I've bought Obd eleven. VCDS have its place in the market, not a good idea simply copy it and not exploit mobile features. May be it will be faster to do some hot links-buttons for user live data. It's really unusable and dangerous trying to change channels in driving. And logging channels of course)) As yet Obd11 is only 5 minutes toy unfortunately if you have VCDS and basic skills of coding and so on.

I didn't realize that you posted in the "Request" session.
VCDS is useful in daily driving for me as I have my VCDS attached to Windows 10 tablet PC (mounted to my dashboard where I can view the channels in real-time (while they are being logged). My car participates in both drag racing and autocross events, so I have to monitor a few parameters (for engine safety and peace of mind).
I'm sure there must be a good reason why the development team hasn't implemented the dashboard option yet for this app even after numerous requests.

Hello, I really cannot see the reason why the developers do not want to create the dashboard function. It's indeed the only reason I did not buy the device yet. My car is Audi A4 B5 without FIS, without OBD2 protocol support, and thus I cannot use ELM327 and applications like Torque. I have a rear view mirror with Android 4.4 and bluetooth and I can split the display to 2 parts on it. It would be great to get the selected information to display in adjustable way, may be even with applets. I think, a function like this can be created easely. Or maybe they could open or just describe the API for third-part developers.
