Probably just as good as most other ELM327 BT adapters. Haven't seen much of the UI so I won't comment on that.

Note the hidden up sells:
DISCLAIMER: Purchasing the Carista OBD2 adapter does NOT unlock the paid functionality in the Carista app.

Personally I like the PLX Kiwi and your choice of free or premium app.

Looks like a fancy-packaged ELM327 bluetooth reader. I bought one for 1/4 that price and it works great with Torque and other ODB2 apps.

Looking around Amazon for different ones. Which brand did you buy?
