OBD2 scanner function of "clip" not working, does it work for you?

OK, not sure if I will get shouted at for this but here goes.
I have a "Clip" and on my previous Megane and my current Koleos the OBD2 scanner function does not work.
Everything else works fine and I can see error codes, record PIDS, etc.
Does anyone have a similar device and if so does the OBD2 scanner work?
Thanks

I have a bluetooth one, but the only problem I have had is sometimes paring it to my phone.... but not really a problem.

Thanks Wanda, yes I have a couple of those type. A WiFi and a Bluetooth one.
The type I am referring to is the Chinese copy of Renault clip. This works fine for most functions apart from the OBD2 part which displays the data like your Bluetooth one.

Can you get good readings for fuel trims? This seems to be a compatibility problem for the Renaults and readers that I have had.

I got an app on my phone OBD check which is well worth it (£4.00). Has real time fuel economy, power, oxygen, just about everything you would ever need. Even checks for errors, but cant get rid of them though.

Thanks Wanda, does this app show values for STFT and LTFT(short term fuel trim and long term fuel trim).
