FIXD Automotive

OBD-II car diagnostic sensor and app

Overview

FIXD provides tools and resources to help drivers understand and maintain their vehicles. The FIXD Sensor plugs into the car’s OBD port and pairs with the FIXD App via Bluetooth to translate engine codes, show issue severity, monitor multiple vehicles, and provide maintenance guides and videos. A Premium plan adds estimated repair costs, a mechanics hotline, emissions pre-check, and vehicle history, while free features remain usable without it. Its goal is to help drivers understand problems, reduce surprise repair costs, and keep cars running safely.
