DASH app

Hey,
Just saw this: http://techcrunch.com/2014/01/25/dashs-smart-driving-app-a-fitbit-for-cars-arrives-on-android/?utm_content=bufferace91&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Has anyone here used it, or anything similar? Is it a bit gimmicky? One thing I'm not sure is whether it can offer live GPS tracking? I've enough gadgets in the vans already so don't want to bother with something unless it's truly useful for me.

Any feedback appreciated

I use another app called torque which has been around for a while now. Imo its the best obd app

Edit: forgot to say it tracks you on GPS if you want it to. It will even post updates to twitter. Actually I think you can set it up to log most data from your engine

Thanks for that. So does the device connected to the vehicle do the tracking itself or does it rely on a bluetooth/wifi connection with a mobile, which itself is connected via 3g etc to the net, or does it do the tracking independently and you can then track it regardless of who's in the vehicle I wonder (a thief even )
