Default Did any one have tried ELM327 WiFi?VCDS-Mobil?

Ross-Tech finally got a free app VCDS-Mobil, I got it on my IPhone just wandering if it'll work with ELM327 WiFi
Of course we can get the HEX-NET directly from Ross-Tech for $400 or try ELM327 Wifi of amazon for $25 and see if it works...

I was just looking at the Ross-Tech website because I was about to purchase a VCDS cable. I saw they have the VCDS Mobile public beta available now. They are asking $400 for the dongle and software.

Should I be considering this, or should I just get the standard PC version which is not in beta? I'm guessing better to get the PC version, but just checking if anyone has more info.

It is absolutely worth getting the HEX-NET.
Quite a few of us have been testing it for most of the year, and it's about to come out of Beta as a USB connected device.
When connected via USB it work with VCDS on a laptop in 'classic' mode just like a HEX-USB+CAN.

Still a few niggles on the WiFi side but it has made huge progress.

Should I get the $399 version that says "10 VINs" or the $499 version for unlimited VINs?

If you don't plan to use it on more than 10 vehicles, the 10 VIN version would be OK.

At some point down the road, you will be able to buy a license key to upgrade it to unlimited.
When that will be and the exact cost hasn't been determined yet.

I know Richard Solomon has one but not sure which version.
You may want to see what he has to say as well.
