Technical Definitions

inCarDoc OBD2 ELM327 Scanner works

as fault code scanner: read Check Engine
(MIL) state, details, related freeze frame
data, find descriptions, and clean stored
diagnostic trouble codes (DTC). Users
store and share diagnostics data when
looking for professional service/repair
assistance. Please note that the app
supports only parameters and ECUs
specified with the OBD2 standard, which
is Engine and Emission systems.

Advantages to use the inCarDoc Scanning

tool

Firstly, portable scanning tools save time.

Drivers diagnose Check Engine errors by
sitting in the car with smartphones.
Secondly, regular check for the presence
of DTC reduces the risk of unexpected
breakage. Therefore, if the code is
returned when cleaning engine errors, it is
necessary to contact the service station.
The inCarDoc application is not limited to
a single diagnostic tool. Drivers can use the
fuel to economize and read real-time
parameters.
INCARDOC.COM
ECONOMIZER
Special mode for presenting and tracking the
car’s fuel economy/consumption. Allows
presenting both in-drive (instant and average
MPG) as well as per trip, per day, and other
statistics. Please note, that feature is available
when appropriate economy parameters (MAF or
MAP+IAT+RPM) are supported in your car.
InCarDoc Pro is available for Android users as an app to buy.
And iOS users can upgrade inCarDoc to PRO by in app
purchase.
T he app has custom
SOLUTIONS
REAL-TIME PARAMETRS
Reads real-time engine and vehicle OBD2
parameters from car’s sensors: speed,
rotation (rpm), coolant temperature,
pressure, lambda, and multiple other
sensors data supported by your car. View
data via Chats and graphs.
ADAPTER
The app developers decided to realize a
custom adapter with a stable and high-
quality connection. The adapter supports
Bluetooth and WiFi settings. The
following capabilities of the adapter:
Read & Clear diagnostic trouble codes
• Support Full OBDII protocols
• Support iOS & Android devices
• Smart parameters scanning
• Reliable and stably working adapter
• Wide range of cars compatibility

WEB SITE AND

SUPPORT
When the app started gaining
popularity among the users,
developers create a website. The
incardoc.com is a platform to
communicate and search for
solutions connected to diagnostics
on a forum. Web visitors can read
blogs and world car news.
Users can call service support via
app by email or in sire's forum.

 Interview
The developer of the apps is PNN Soft. The company has 20 years of experience. Here is a
short interview with developers

What was the most challenging aspect of

developing a mobile app?
The first thing that comes to mind is those technologies. Now the implementation of many is
simple, and the necessary information is more accessible.
But it was difficult to realize the versatility of the application and configure stable
connections for a wide range of models and brands of cars.

How long have you been working on this app?

The first version on inCarDoc was realized in 2013 and the development process took a
year. We realised an app for Android. After a year and a half, the inCarDoc appeared for
iOS. Street Racing Speedometer is older by a little. This app has fewer functionality
solutions than inCardoc, and it is available only for Android.

What are your future plans and expected features for

the coming new versions of this app?
PNN Soft keeps up with the times, and constantly monitors trends in the field of mobile
applications for cars. inCarDoc is 10 years old. It is an anniversary for us, and we will continue
updates. We have a gorgeous plan for the app and new products.

Which product do you speak of? Can you tell

us a little bit more about this plan?

We will announce this when the time comes. But our team is
working on improving the application and promises to please
our users.
