- Automatic bus type detection, all optimizations are done automatically
- Support for custom PIDs, formula based evaluation (experimental)
- Added support for physical ECU addressing, major speed improvement
- Improved OBD debugging support
- Further update rate improvements
- End to end sensor data queuing minimizing real time effects
- Support for extended channels: gear, odometer, brake pressure, individual
wheel speed, steering wheel angle and rate - requires scripting or
custom PIDs
- Support for ReDrive sensor
- Support for Cycling Speed and Cadence (CSC) sensors
- Disabled generic sensor configuration
- Support for VC601 TPMS sensors (experimental)

User Interface
- Lots of User Interface refinements
- Hall of Fame filtering by Group
- Further iPhoneX layout improvements
- Edmunds support removed (discontinued by Edmunds)
