A30M V2.0 OBD2 Scanner Diagnostic Tool, 26 Resets, All System | Bluetooth Bidirectional Scan Tool, Car Code Reader for EPB/Throttle/Crank Sensor Relearn, Lifetime Free Update, Android & iOS

I've been using scan tools for over 15 years, but until now, I could only justify using a standard OBD2 reader that provided ECU codes. While those are useful for troubleshooting, modern vehicles have many different modules that can't be scanned by a standard OBD2 reader. Not only can the XTool A30M scan those modules, it can also interact with them through it's bi-directional capability, allowing you to run tests and even actuate controls manually. So far, I have scanned these cars: 2007 Chevy Malibu 2008 Lexus RX350 2009 Nissan Versa 2013 Ford Focus 2016 Kia Cadenza 2020 Toyota Tundra I've included several screenshots that demonstrate some of the codes I've encountered. I downloaded the Anyscan app from the Google Play Store onto an inexpensive ONN Android tablet from Wal-Mart. It functions at what I would consider a normal speed when connecting to the vehicle computer. While some reviewers have complained about connection speed, I suspect that is related to the age of the phone or tablet they were using to run the app. The only issue I had was not being able to connect to the car immediately after installing the app. This was solved by rebooting the tablet and I have had no more problems since. Bluetooth range from the device to my tablet is around twenty feet, but is likely going to depend on your equipment's capabilities. In most cases, I'm sitting in the car or standing next to it, so range is not an issue for me. XTool customer service has been excellent, both before and after my purchase. They usually respond to emails within 24 hours and are courteous and helpful. This is a company based in China, and they have better customer service than many American companies. One of the main selling points for me was the free updates. The other two tools that I was considering provide one free year of updates and then you have to pay $60 to $100 per year after that if you want to keep your software current. That's not a big deal for a professional mechanic, but for someone who just wants to work on their own car, it seems like a lot. Also, there are some scan tools that only allow you to download updates for one or two vehicles, but XTool allows you to download all of the makes that you want to. I went ahead and downloaded all of the common makes in the US and it used about 10 gigs of storage on my tablet. About half of that space was from the files for VW, BMW, and Mercedes. I've had this tool for several months and there have been many updates available during that time for the makes I have installed. Overall, the A30M and the Anyscan app are easy to use. The tool itself feels well-built and solid. The voltage display does not reflect actual battery voltage, but that's not a problem for me as I will have already checked it with a multimeter. This is an impressive tool and I have recommended it to several friends.

I’ve been running a large automotive shop for years, so I’ve used a lot of different scan tools — from basic code readers to much more expensive professional diagnostic scanners. I can honestly say the XTOOL A30M is one of the better tools I’ve used for the money. What impressed me most is how much capability it has in such a simple, compact setup. The wireless connection is convenient, the app is easy to navigate, and it works well for quick diagnostics without having to drag out a large scanner every time. We use scan tools daily in the shop, and this one has been very useful for reading and clearing codes, checking live data, running system scans, and performing service functions depending on the vehicle. The bi-directional controls are a big plus. Being able to command certain components on and off helps a lot when trying to confirm a problem instead of just guessing and throwing parts at a car. That is something I really value in a shop environment because it saves time and helps us diagnose more accurately. For the price, this tool offers a lot. It is not just a cheap code reader — it feels like a real diagnostic tool that can actually help in a professional setting. Of course, vehicle coverage and certain functions can vary depending on the year, make, and model, but overall I’ve been very impressed with it. XTOOL did a great job with the A30M. I would definitely recommend it to shop owners, technicians, mobile mechanics, and serious DIY users. I’ve had a very good experience with it, and based on how it has performed in our shop, I would absolutely be interested in trying and reviewing more XTOOL products in the future.

I've owned the Anyscan A30M for over a year and thought it was great for the money. I used it with my IPad. I used it to help fix a couple of my cars and some friend's cars. The bi-directional and live data features made this a very useful tool and much better than most other scanners in the price range. The updates were free, without needing a subscription, which made this a very cost effective scanner. Then it just stopped working when I really needed it. It would not communicate with my Ipad. I went to the Xtool website but there was no mention of any problems so I thought it was a problem with my A30M. Since I liked the device so much and had a car with some issues, I immediately bought a new one but this new one had the same problem so I wrote to Xtool to tell them there may be a problem with their device. I learned the problem was caused by a software update. They emailed me that the experts were working on a fix and it will be working again in a couple of days. That was over two weeks ago and my new A30M is still not working with my Ipads. There was an update for the app (6.2.1) on the Apple store. I deleted my old version of the App and got the latest version but now It has a new problem. It gives a bluetooth failure error during startup. It still will not communicate with my Ipads. I have three Ipads and none of them can communicate with the A30M. I tried an old Samsung tablet that I had and I was able to get the A30M working. I still have a few issues even with the Samsung, but at least it works. It has been very frustrating trying for a couple of weeks to get it to work with my Ipads. If you have a Android tablet you may be in luck but if you want to use it with an Ipad you may have some problems. Xtool emailed me that everyone else have gotten their A30M working again (but not me). Such a shame for what was a once a fantastic tool. If they come up with a fix that actually works with an Ipad, I'll update my review. Update**** It works with my Ipad again. This after I bought a new Samsung tablet for the device. I couldn't wait any longer so I ended up buying the Samsung Tablet to get the A30M to work. I had not been able to use the device for about three weeks and I had a Jeep in need of repair so I bought an Android tablet. Xtool kept in touch and kept helping with my old Ipad and yesterday, after deleting the APP for the third time, rebooting my Ipad and reloading the App onto the Ipad, they finally connected. I was happy because I really like my Ipad Pro but after using both the Android and the Ipad, I think I'm going to keep using the Samsung because it seems to work a little better with the A30m. I also like the interface between the A30M and the Android (Samsung) better. I was very happy with the Xtool support. I think I emailed them just about everyday and they always answered back quickly. They never gave up trying to help. I'll rate the A30M 5 stars in the future if it keeps working. ***Update*** the A30M is still working great and Xtool keeps allowing me to update the software so I'm very happy and raised my rating to 5 stars.

I’ve been extremely impressed with the XTOOL A30M V2.0. For such a compact Bluetooth scanner, it packs feature coverage usually reserved for much larger, expensive diagnostic tablets. What stands out: Bi-Directional Control: Active testing works great—being able to command actuators (valves, pumps, relays, lights) directly from my phone/tablet makes troubleshooting fast and accurate. Full System Diagnostics: It scans and clears codes across all vehicle modules (ECM, ABS, SRS, TCM, BCM, etc.) rather than just standard engine OBD2 codes. Service Resets: Having access to 26+ reset functions (oil light, EPB, SAS, battery matching, brake bleed, etc.) saves a ton of money on routine maintenance. Wireless Convenience: Bluetooth pairing is quick and reliable, letting you move around the vehicle freely while checking live data graph streams. Excellent value for money for any home mechanic, DIYer, or technician needing a reliable portable scanner. Highly recommended!

I had a problem with my Infiniti QX80 rear air suspension that was sagging. I realized this when I kept hitting my head on the rear hatch and wondering why it was not raising as high as it used to. After reading similar issues, I replaced the air compressor which did not fix the problem. At this point, I was pretty sure it was the height sensor but that required a bidirectional scanning tool to diagnosis and install. I looked at numerous scanners. I have three vehicles and wanted something that could work with all of them at a reasonable cost. To say it was difficult to compare scanners would be an understatement. I needed something that could work with a 2006 Saab, 2013 Jeep and 2017 Infiniti. I spent hours researching. For anyone else, here is how I broke it down: - Bidirectional? Decide on whether you just want to know what the issue is and have a chance of fixing a simpler problem or whether you want all the information, testing abilities and best chances of fixing the problem. - How many vehicles? Many scanners will only work with one make. Some will allow you to add another for a cost but many had a two vehicle limit. - How many systems? Many of the scanners were limited in the number of systems on your vehicle that they would work with. Some will only look at brakes and airbags. Some will add additional systems such as steering, tires, etc. Oftentimes, the only way to know what systems are supported is to go directly to the website and enter your vehicle information and the scanner information. This was a royal PITA. - Updates? Many scanners would only give updates for a limited time and then charge you for additional updates. Overall, this was a mess. I finally decided on the XTool A30M. It worked with my phone so I could use it while walking around the vehicle, under the vehicle, or sitting comfortably in the vehicle. It has an active support with numerous updates. Updates are free for life. I can use it on multiple vehicles and have tested it on my Jeep, Saab and Infiniti. I used it to diagnose my rear suspension and determined it was the height sensor. I ordered a new one and installed it. The A30M did not have the system tool to calibrate the height sensor so I emailed their support. I received a reply within 24 hours over the weekend. I sent them a copy of the shop manual with the functions required to calibrate the height sensor. They promised an update within a week. In a few days, I received the update and was able to successfully calibrate the height sensor as described in the shop manual. Absolutely superior customer service. Overall, I cannot recommend this scanner enough. It supports multiple vehicles including a 2006 Saab, 2013 Jeep and 2017 Infiniti. It supports all of the diagnostic systems on the vehicles with the ability to view live data, read codes, actuate devices, and calibrate devices. Customer service was phenomenal with rapid response, super fast updates, and awesome follow up. It was just a pleasure to work with.

This scan tool is flat out amazing. While this market segment is very competitive, the bidirectional ability, quality customer support, and constant updates make this standout from the competition. I keep this in my glovebox for roadside emergencies and helping out a friend. The speed of the system and easy to use phone app are also wonderful. If you need a more capabilities, check out the D7/D8 for heavy duty use. Otherwise, this model will satisfy 99% of DIY mechanic needs. The functionality of the app is also a standout feature, with easy to read and accurate data displays, with live data as well. The display is top notch, and the build quality feels hefty. the built in flashlight is such a cool feature too!!

Modified review: I am editing this review and changing it to a 4 instead of a 1. It does work nice and does all that is advertised. My advice is to ignore any instructions regarding the scanning of the QR code on the package. That loaded an old APK file that didn't want to run on my new phone with a newer Android version. The company actually induces an issue by having you mess around with scanning a QR code to load the app. That's the only reason I can't give a 5 rating. All their instructions need to say is to simply go to the play store and install their Anyscan Xtool app. That works. To be fair the company was willing to give a refund even after the return date had passed, but all has been figured out so not necessary. Original review: Pain in the rear to use. App does not load on phones with newer versions of Android. The QR code on the package doesn't scan to match the product for support. AND I'M AN IT GUY! This item is a costly and useless brick. Total loss. Beware!

The XTOOL A30M has most (if not all) of the scan, monitor, and control functions to assist the home, or pro car mechanic to assess the condition of a vehicle's onboard diagnostic info, with the additional capability of testing / energizing critical components in assorted electrical subsystems. Whether preparing your car for state inspection, monitoring your vehicle for existing and potential problems, or troubleshooting specific vehicle functions, down to the component level, you will find this to be an extremely effective and portable tool to keep your vehicle in good running condition. It is also a great tool to flag problems, before purchasing that used vehicle! I have attached a typical use video, which showcases but a small fraction of this devices capabilities (there are many online videos that detail some of the A30M applications). As a retired engineer .. I hate reading manuals .. but I would recommend reading the XTOOL A30 manual to get a better feel for all the capabilities of this device (and to avoid setup problems). The XTOOL Anyscan app will work on most IOS and Android phones and tablets, but be aware that the base program requires over 1GB of storage on your smart device, with an additional 2GB to 6GB storage for the available vehicle make/model and special function downloads .. so don't go "crazy" trying to download all the update options (just download what you need)! As an operational heads-up ... the XTOOL Anyscan app can be installed on all your compatible devices, but the A30M bluetooth can only pair with one smart device at a time. If you happen to have more than one device with the XTOOL Anyscan app active (in the range of the A30M device) .. it may not pair up, properly. Note that some smart devices do not completely terminate a running app (even when you exit that app), so another device can still be trying to pair with the A30M. The quickest remedy is to use your unused smart device's Bluetooth setting to temporarily disable pairing with the A30M tool. The XTOOL A30M offers FREE lifetime updates (no strings attached, no credit card info, etc.) .. a terrific advantage over other products in this class. The breadth of the vehicle types covered is amazing, and the amount of bidiectional control options are a real time (and money) saver!

One of the best smart phone O.B.D scaner ever!!

Está muy bien pero el manual en español está incompleto contrario al manual en inglés, podrian enviarme los dos a mi correo electrónico ñ, se los agradecere

قطعه جدا ممتازة تغنيك عن محلات الفحص وفيها بعض البرمجات الأساسية تغنيك عن اماكن البرمجة مثل برمجة نظام ABS وبرمجة بوابة الثروتل وبرمجة الكفرات والخ تنفع للورش الصغيرة او الاشخاص في بداياتهم

I try my own awesome tools and I'm never regret

Very quick and helpful customer support. As my habit immediately after unpacking I through package to trash. Later when try to use device it was asking for activation code. In same time I ask xtools amazon support, contact emails from xtools website and provided model + serial number of device. In a few hour they all replied with activation code. And even after a month they checking if I have any issue or need help in use of device. Device it self is the best.
