Default OBDeleven Pro - Any issues with coding/adjustments?

I want to buy the OBDeleven pro for doing some adjustments in my 2019 Q7 Prestige?. Any concerns with coding/adjustments messing up the vehicle electronics and computer?. I also have an iOS Apple phone. I heard the device has limited functions with Apple phone.

there is a forum dedicated to the OBDEleven, you might find some info there. It helped me when I was coding my Q7. https://forum.obdeleven.com/board/135/4m-f7

I’m using the IOS version of OBDELEVEN pro. No issues. I’m able to code most of not all the known modifications so far. I also signed up as a “tester” so I’m getting all of the app updates via TestFlight

Been using OBDeleven Pro on iOS since it came out. No issues, however I did notice a few strange behaviours. I've made a few simple modifications such as 'needle sweep', online traffic information...etc. However, I've noticed that when I used adaptation on enabling automatic parking brake, I started to notice a few strange things such as 'parking brake malfunction' and soft door not closing properly. After I set the 'automatic parking brake' to no (default setting), the problems went away.

Does the coding/modification voids the factory warranty?

Only to the extent that a specific thing you break via coding would not be covered. For example, if you change coding related to parking sensors and then your parking sensing fails: probably not covered. But if your engine has a fuel injection problem that has nothing to do with your coding, it would still be covered.

Thanks for sharing the video. It made me change my mind of buying the OBDeleven. It is not worth the hassle in case something goes wrong and then Audi would deny the claim under warranty.
