Note:
Fix your CarDroid in a car if you connect
CarDroid via an OBD-II extension cord to avoid
getting false notification.

diagnoses your vehicle automatically and keeps
records of its condition. When an error is

code. Once you log in to your web account, the
“Events” section will have trouble codes and their
descriptions. This data can be used for reports
and detailed statistics.
Driver behavior monitoring. You can also setup
your account to receive notifications in case of an
unsafe driver behavior: hard acceleration, hard
braking, speeding, risky maneuvering, etc.

away, hit in a parking lot or in case of a break-in
you will receive an alert.

about the critical conditions of a vehicle: high
engine temperature, low fuel/oil level, unusually
high rpm, etc.
Positioning and tracking history. You can see
where your car is located at any moment, track it
online and check the vehicle route for any period
of time.
Microphone remote listening. The CarDroid
supports audio input/output through microphone.
To speak to the driver of a vehicle or listen what
is happening inside a car dial the number of the
SIM card installed inside your CarDroid (only
from the trusted numbers).

act as a Wi-Fi hotspot. A password can be set in
your UonMap account.
