The car diagnostic app you'll actually understand

The STEER car diagnostic app is a free iPhone app (iOS 18+) that pairs with the $99 STEER Bluetooth OBD2 sensor and turns your car's onboard diagnostic data into plain English. It shows a single 0–100 SteerScore, active fault codes with severity, dashboard-light explanations, scheduled maintenance, and NHTSA recall status for your VIN. AI Mechanic chat is included free (3 messages/month) and unlimited with STEER Pro ($99/year).

The four tabs of the STEER app

Each tab answers one question — and only one — so you always know where to look.

My Car

Your car at a glance.

Today's SteerScore, any active issues with severity, recent scans, and a quick-glance battery + emissions readiness status.

Mechanic

When something seems off.

AI Mechanic, the dashboard lights library, and a manual diagnostics flow where you describe a symptom and STEER suggests likely causes.

Plan

What's coming up.

Scheduled maintenance based on your make and model, plus any active manufacturer recalls for your VIN.

Garage

The boring-but-important stuff.

Your cars, your STEER sensors, your account, your billing. Multi-vehicle is included with STEER Pro.

What's free, what's Pro

Safety-relevant information is never paywalled. Pro is for depth and ongoing protection.
