Release notes

Website — 21 September 2026

Available now at mqbone.app

• Signed-in Home. Sign in with Apple with the Apple Account you use in the app; the site then shows your MQBone Home instead of the marketing pages, with About MQBone to go back. Website sessions last up to 15 minutes.
• Website garage. Save up to 25 vehicles — a VIN and a name — to your website account, rename them and remove them. It's separate from the garage in the app: nothing is synced, and removing a vehicle here removes only the website record, never a vehicle in the app or an activation on that VIN. Saving a vehicle doesn't activate it.
• Your activations. A read-only list of the vehicles activated on your account, with the vehicle number partly hidden and the time it was last checked. There's a Check again button; the page never refreshes by itself.
• Datalog review in the browser. Your MQBone Home is now two sections, Garage & activations and Datalogs, so the viewer has the room it needs. Open one of your CSV logs in the tab, search its channels and draw up to eight at once: Normalised overlays them on one 0–100% axis, each scaled to its own full-log range, and Native units gives every channel its own chart in its own units. One cursor reads all of them at the same recorded sample, with minimum, maximum and mean for the whole log, and you can zoom by dragging across a chart or by typing a start and end time. The file isn't uploaded and nothing is stored in the browser. The web viewer opens up to 10 MiB; the app's own viewer handles up to 50 MiB.
• Compatibility, at a glance. The home page now shows the engine and DSG controller families MQBone programs, with their operations on each card, and an expandable list of further controllers and adapters to confirm with us.
• Help, release notes, privacy notice and terms, all working without JavaScript.

There is no checkout: website payments are switched off, and the prices on the home page are planned prices rather than an offer for sale.

MQBone for iPhone and iPad

Coming soon · no public download, App Store or TestFlight link yet

• Vehicles and setups. Vehicles saved against their VIN on the device, each keeping its own gauge layout, chosen PIDs, units and scan history.
• Live data. Gauges and graphs with running minimum and maximum values; a configurable landscape cockpit on iPhone and a separate dashboard layout on iPad.
• PIDs. Metric and imperial units, Mode 22 and HSL data where the controller supports it, and PID definitions imported from your own CSV file.
• Recording. Datalogs written to CSV, started by hand or on a trigger, with a lead-in before the trigger and a delay before recording ends.
• Logs. CSV import and sharing, a graph cursor, per-PID selection, and a map for logs that contain location data. The in-app viewer opens files up to 50 MiB.
• Diagnostics. Read and clear fault codes, controller information, scan history and the adaptations the app supports.
• Widgets. Widgets on MQBone's Home tab for the selected vehicle, the adapter connection, fault codes, the last datalog, motion, and weather with density altitude.
• Programming. Calibration, full flash and recovery for Simos 18.1, Simos 18.10 and DQ250 MQB (0D9); calibration only for DQ381 G1. DQ200 MQB, DQ400 MQB and DQ500 (0BH / 0DL) need their controller and software confirmed with us first — see compatibility.
• Account and purchases. Sign in with Apple, one-time activation per VIN, and Apple in-app purchase including purchases left pending until Apple resolves them.
• Languages. 27 interface localisations, right-to-left layouts and text size support.

Your vehicles, setups and logs stay on the device; the website garage is a separate record on your account.
