I'd like to know too. I have an android tablet and the Ultra Gauge I have puts a parasitic draw on the battery even when the car is off. I'm told new UG edition does not have that problem, but you can't get the free update for mine. If Torque is good, I might switch. Please report back what you get for sensor readings and how well the app can be calibrated to real world conditions.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
