MAUD-Connect App

Important notes for the use of the app:

Position the cell phone in a non-slip manner after activating the MAUD-Connect app and before starting the journey.
As required by law, the operation of the cell phone while driving is prohibited and MyAutoData GmbH assumes no liability

Requirements of the use of the app (absolutely necessary):

Mobile phone with data plan
GPS-location enabled in the mobile phone
Bluetooth activated

Step 1: Plug MAUD-Adapter into OBD socket

It is typically located on the driver’s side on the left below the dashboard in the footwell (see reference image).

If you need extra information: How do I find the socket in my vehicle ? www.wikiobd.co.uk/

Step 2: Download and open MAUD Connect App

Step 3: Location "always allowed"

The app needs your permission to identify the driving route.

Location instruction – When opening the app for the first time, please select the following:

iOS (iPhone)

Allow when using the app
Select “always allowed”

Android

Swipe down from the top-edge of the display
Keep pressed location gedrückt. If location is not shown:
1. Click on edit ✎ or settings ⚙. Drag location in to the quick settings.
Click on app permission
Choose Access always allowed

Step 4: Login Instruction

Enter here the same login-data as at app.myautodata.com

Step 5: Connect vehicle with OBD adapter

Start engine
Select bluetooth symbol

The app then automatically connects with the OBD adapter

Step 6: Trip reason, driver

Trip Reason:

Private: Ride serves a private purpose
Business: Ride serves a business purpose (e.g. drive to work)

Driver: Choose, who does the drive

Remember my choice: default setting until next change

Important Note: If trips are made by the spouse or child, they must use their own cell phones with their own MAUD Connect app! Otherwise, the driving data would be mixed with each other and therefore unusable! However, the access data for the login are always identical with those of the vehicle owner (Main)

Step 7: Check odometer, start and end trip

Before the very first trip, take the mileage from the car’s odometer and enter it into the app.

After several trips, sporadically check whether the mileage in the vehicle still matches that in the app. If necessary, correct the mileage in the app before starting the trip.
To do that: Type in the new number and click „Change“ → a blue frame around the mileage indicates that the change has been made.

Start trip:

Recording starts automatically as soon as the vehicle is in motion.
Display: „Trip on xxx started“.

After that, the display automatically changes to “Recording trip data” which means that the trip is currently being recorded.

End trip:

Optional automatic or manual:

Automatic: 2 minutes after the engine is switched off
Manual: Click “Stop recording trip” before switching off the motor!

Daraufhin wird die Fahrt automatisch beendet und in dem System gespeichert

Feld: „Trip on car was recorded“

Step 7: Show trips in MyAutoData
