The document scanner in the notes app is my go-to

I took a picture of my truck, with it's hillbilly gun rack and off road tires, then created a Note, and scanned it as you suggest.
The output came back as "Redneck. "Big Redneck," to be more accurate.
Damn, that would have been a great username.

I got one. It’s semi useful. I did reply in the prior thread. Every auto parts store will do it for you. So it’s not really essential unless you are in the boonies.
You will need an app plus a unit that pugs in to your sensor as posted above. Make sure it works with all apps and download an app that works with all sensors. Some of them are proprietary.

Waste of money if the vehicle is newer and has all the safety features like TPMS, ABS, VSC and so on. I bought a professional scanner on Amazon that was cheaper than a full blown pro scanner because it only comes with the software for one manufacturer. It is $10 to download additional manufacturers. It is a good deal for people with only 2 or 3 makes in their driveway. With the pro scanner you can get live data of every system in the car and reset and program just about all of them. It is the Autel Diaglink which is the DIY version of the MD802.
