leafBefore you start
You need a supported Nissan Leaf, a compatible ELM327-style OBD2 adapter and an iPhone or Android phone. Read adapter compatibility before buying: iPhone uses BLE or Wi-Fi, while Android also supports Bluetooth Classic. The app is coming soon; these instructions describe the current app workflow.
Work through the introduction
- Open Leaf Pro and follow the introduction. The adapter step explains the hardware you need.
- At the connection step, scan for your adapter and select it. Grant Bluetooth or nearby-device access when your phone asks.
- Wait for the app to receive vehicle data. A discovered Bluetooth name is not yet a successful car connection.
- Check the detected battery pack on the next step. Correct it if you know a different pack is fitted.
- Enter your electricity price, currency and charging efficiency. Defaults are starting values, not your actual tariff.
Check your first readings
The Dashboard, Battery and Drive screens show different views of the same connection. Look for changing live values and check the car identity shown on the Dashboard. Before the first real connection, example cards help demonstrate the interface; they are labelled as examples. After a previous connection, a disconnected screen must not be read as live data.
If battery-health cards are locked, that reflects the paid feature set. Live charging, temperature and everyday driving tools are separate from the battery-health unlock.
Make it your own
Star a card to pin it to your Dashboard. Set preferred units in Settings and review journey permissions if you want routes recorded. Auto record is enabled by default in the current app, so check its setting rather than assuming recording only starts when you press a button.
If something is missing, follow missing readings before treating it as a car fault. The compatibility page explains model differences.
