You're beat with Apple equipment unless you can run Windows in Boot Camp, so I'm told here.
FORScan Lite is simply a monitor type app where you can view different parameters and reset a check engine light. That can be used with iOS.
All my stuff is Apple also. My solution was to grab a cheap Lenovo laptop with Windows 10 to use for FORScan. Download FORScan direct from their site. Download FORScan

The liability issue is a safety issue. If you leave your vehicle running in the garage, forget, go inside and it runs all night and causes a fire or carbon monoxide poisoning. These trucks are so quiet now, I can see where it can happen. The dealer can enable police mode, they will bring up DPF % Soot on your dash, but they won't do the horn honk, seatbelt chime, ect that we can do on Forscan.

I just got my Forscan and OBDLink MX so these are high on the list. Hoping to start small this weekend.

Ditto. My OBDLink MX arrived yesterday. FORScan has been downloaded and licensed. Will start by backing up the as-built files.

I'm looking for a solution as well. Ford dealers cannot/will not disable it, and FORScan requires a windows based computer, which I don't have. Anyone in the DFW area willing to help?

Thanks,

Cole

Buy the $30 adapter and download the software. If you can pay a bill online, you can use forscan.

(Assuming you have a 2019 or older. 2020 hasn’t been figured out yet)

If you're looking for someone to perform the Forscan mod for you in the San Antonia area, you'd probably have better luck asking that in the Forscan thread (link below).

I’m also looking for someone in the Ft. Worth area that would be willing to make a few FORScan changes to my 2019 F250.
I would be more than happy to pay them for their time and trouble.
