The Analog — Grid of 6 dashboard on a tablet: six round gauges for RPM, manifold pressure, coolant temperature, air-fuel ratio, battery voltage and throttle position.

What it does

Dashboards you design

Gauges, warnings and units arranged the way you want them. Build layouts in the browser with Dash Designer and load them in the car.

Datalogging on the device

Datalogs, captured starts and dyno runs are saved on your device, and aren't uploaded anywhere unless you choose to sync.

Works with your tune

Connects to the ECU over USB or Bluetooth and works from your own INI and MSQ files. Saved tunes stay on your device.

Tuning tools

Edit and burn your settings, curves and tables, and calibrate the TPS, with DashForge Plus. DashForge Pro adds quick-tune, output tests, VE auto-tune and a virtual dyno.

Navigation and HUD

Maps, search and routing, with an optional second phone as a head-up display over your car's local Wi-Fi.

Lap timer

Find tracks near you, time laps and sectors, and keep your best laps.

Logs and laps

DashForge's datalog viewer: a 49-second log with air-fuel ratio against its target, RPM, manifold pressure and coolant temperature plotted over time, with playback and zoom controls. — The datalog viewer, in every edition: play a log back, zoom in and choose the channels.

DashForge's laps on the map: a recorded lap drawn as a line coloured by speed, from slow corners in blue to the fastest straight in red. — Laps on the map, coloured by speed or g-force. The lap timer comes with DashForge Pro or DashForge Track.
