vLinker FS Bluetooth and BimmerLink/BimmerCode on IOS - AJB - 01-12-2024 The vLinker FS Bluetooth looks like the ideal tool for Ford using Forscan on iOS, because it's MFi certified by Apple and so has much lower latency than almost all other tools according to Forscan: https://forscan.org/support/show_content.php?lang=en&issue=li_recommend_adapter But I need to be able to run BimmerLink/BimmerCode on iOS as well, so I want a device that supports all BMW models as well as Ford. BimmerCode don't list the vLinker FS Bluetooth as supported for their IOS app here https://bimmercode.app/adapters/ , instead listing vLinker MC+ Bluetooth as supported on cars since 2008 But the vLinker MC+ Bluetooth isn't as good with Forscan, and isn't even listed as supported by Forscan from what I can see. Does the vLinker FS Bluetooth work on BMWs using iOS and BimmerLink/BimmerCode? Is it just missing from the supported list because it's new, and they haven't tested it yet, or are there actually features in the vLinker MC+ Bluetooth which make it better for BMWs, and better supported on BimmerLink/BimmerCode? Thanks!

However, in BimmerCode, you need to use BLE channel to connect. We have uploaded the latest version of firmware updater, VgateFwUpdater, which can change the connection mode of vLinker FS BT from MFI to BLE+BT3.0, and of course, you can restore it if you need to use MFI after the modification. If you need to change the connection method, please contact support@vgate.com.cn, I will send you the manual.

Some apps in Android use BLE channel connection, you can also modify BT+BLE to use BLE to connect the app. |
