Trip and charge logging iPhone app for the Lightning

Awesome information recording, display and filtering. I’m imagining all the advantages for trip planning compared with guess-O-meter . I look forward to TestFlight beta. Sure beats my excel sheets.

If only I could find where the GOM is located on the CAN bus, I have so many ideas on incorporating it in some analysises. I searched every address in the IPC module but couldn’t find it there. Anyone?

App is really for entertainment purposes only but filtering by location would let you compare the numbers from previous trips. I’ll add it to the to-do list.

That looks like a very useful app! Add me to the testflight beta too if you don't mind.

I'll start a new thread with the TestFlight details as soon as it is accepted.

Right now plowing thru the last of the 'must have' features like database trip seeding so those without an OBDLink MX+ can run the UI if they wish to give it a try.

Detour this weekend into letting you know the app is recording in the background so it now has support for Notifications and Live Activities.

The optional notifications allow your Apple watch or phone has connected to the scan tool and when a trip or charge starts - no need to visually check the phone.

And if you keep your phone in some sort of holder, you can see what the app is doing in the Dynamic Island. These displays vary but you can count on the red recording indicator to let you know a trip or charge is being recorded in the background.

The lock screen shows even more detail, here are the trip and charge live activities rendered hion the simulator:

You can see the trip duration, distance travelled and weather conditions (left screenshot) where the arrow is your headwind indicator, here you are currently driving in a quartering strong headwind. The arrow rotates as your course changes where the size is an indication of the wind speed (light, moderate, string) and turns green when you have a tailwind.

On the right is the charing lock screen with elapsed time, SoC, and current power, Ford users won't see the range added since I don't know where it is in the Ford Can bus universe.

With this out of the way I can spend this week working on getting the bits and pieces needed for the TestFlight submission.
