Pros & Cons
Pros
Bluetooth obd reader is fairly easy to use on my 2011 135i. Can communicate with all of the various can bus subsystems on the car. We have a 2011 bmw x5 e70 and this scanner locked right into the dme, and did things that other scanners couldn't.
Excellent product as always from ancel. Researched and found this on amazon. Worked like a charm. However, there are a few clues that suggested it might be just a little bit more.
It starts scanning for the tool immediately and connects within seconds of turning the car on. The connector fits. The bt code scanner works well.
Cons
The app and the written instructions are poorly translated from chinese. Despite the false statement compatible with iphone, ipad & android devices, there is no support for android. Only worked few a few things on my bmw.

Easy to use the best part is that it’ll redirect you to the internet depending on what code you have.
Price
Saved my self about $200 to $300 from going to bmw dealership
Local bmw dealer wanted $250 to reset an airbag light that came on after i replaced my passenger door window regulator.
Competitiveness
I'm not that tech minded but this was super easy to use and better value for money that other options out there.
This is a fabulous bluetooth dongle from ancel.
I bought this to scan my bmw to get more details than my other scanner and it does in fact provide manufacturer specific codes.

Anyone who owns a bmw knows how expensive it is to have a dealer diagnose an issue that being said this tool pays for itself in the first use
