Worked fine for me in just 5 min- just slightly flaky on initially connecting - but Iphone instructions weren't completely clear so here's the step by step that I did:
1) Plug it in to ODB2 port under your dash and set the car key to the ON position (don't have to start the engine) to read more data (wifi should work even off though)
2) Find the ELM wireless network on your iphone (settings - wifi) - mine said "CLKDevices" click connect
3) In iphone wifi settings change from DHCP to static
IP 192.168.0.5 (any ip other than .10 should work)
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Router 192.168.0.10 (you can probably leave this blank actually)
4) Get an app - I didn't research much and mainly just want this as a code reader and used Engine Link - (Torque Pro, Rev2 and many others should work too)
5) In your app connect to "192.168.0.10" and "port 35000"
6) Mine sort of connected (got a green light in app) but didn't get live data - I disconnected the wifi, turned the key to off and back on (and maybe replugged the ELM back into OBD2 port?) and it started working, stayed connected and I could pull CELs (trouble codes) and fuel/ live rpm when I started car etc etc.
Wifi Range is short - make sure your iphone is not reverting back to 4G or your home's wifi autojoin network if you are having problems.
Make sure to get the ELM327 Wifi version if you don't want to have to jailbreak your Iphone for Bluetooth (Android phones shouldn't have to)
