Doug_Baliko Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Besides a PC desktop computer we use Apple products for computing and communicating. What appliances can be used to read a GS-911? Will any older PC based laptop work with any version of Windows? I'm just trying to figure out the cheapest way to use it if I buy one? And does anyone know if there is a version of the GS-911 coming that will work with my iPad? Thanks. Doug Link to comment
AnotherLee Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Hi, Doug - Here's where to find the word from the horse's mouth: ***Link to Hexcode FAQ*** Scroll down to find which computers & OS's work with their software. IPhone? Not at this time. Lots of info here... Link to comment
Beemah Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Unfortunately the GS 911 hasn't been compatible with Apple so far to the best of my knowledge. I have the GS 911 pro model with blue tooth and have found in my case that it is fairly easy to link with android devices. I have linked mine to an HTC One cell phone and most recently when I changed phones I linked it to a Samsung Galaxy S5 with no problem. I've also linked it with my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 pad with no problem. I agree with the earlier poster that it would be wise to check Hex Code's list of devices. I don't work for Samsung, but just pointing out that the GS 911 seems to link up pretty easily to their products. The GS 911 is a great investment, I never leave home without it. Good luck with your choice of devices. Link to comment
lkraus Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 A newer model is in development that would work with any device that has wireless connectivity and a web browser, and will support the K1600 and RTW. It's been several months since I've heard any news on the beta test. Some mention of it here: http://www.bmwmoa.org/forum/showthread.php?71283-quot-GS-911-WiFi-quot-beta-testing-has-started!&p=913646&viewfull=1#post913646 Link to comment
NickInSac Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I've read where others have used PC emulators on their macs specifically virtualbox on their macs for the the GS-911. https://www.virtualbox.org/ I am sure there are other emulators out there. Good luck. Nick Link to comment

Good luck. Nick +1 to VirtualBox. It's easy to set up on a Mac. Ask us if you need help to download / install etc. Thanks Link to comment
