Announcing: Carista app for iOS can change your RC-F's personalized settings
Hi guys, we've been hard at work on our iOS version and it's finally done! With Carista for iOS, you can change your Lexus Personalized Settings just using your smartphone and a small OBD dongle that plugs into the car's diagnostic port.
For iPhone/iPad: get it from the Apple App Store (released today!); you also need a WiFi ELM327 OBD device: http://www.caristaapp.com/hardware/?platform=ios
For Android: the app has been available on Google Play Store for a while now; you need a Bluetooth ELM327 OBD device: http://www.caristaapp.com/hardware/?platform=android
The set of customizable settings (LPS) that Carista supports differ based on the year, model, country, factory options, etc. But luckily, Carista shows you the settings that your specific vehicle supports for free, BEFORE you have to pay. If you want to be able to CHANGE settings, you need to buy the Pro Package, which currently costs $19.99 (USD). It's an in-app purchase through the app.
That's about it Let me know if you guys have questions or run into issues. And enjoy your RC-F the way you want it, not necessarily the way it came from the factory. P.S. all setting changes are reversible.

I don't want to buy the OBD device just to check what settings could be customized, can you post a list of that instead?
Can this app do anything that I can't directly from the vehicle? Thanks.

That would be enough reason to buy this app, every time I want to wash my windshield at night I have to turn off the headlamps to avoid it from splashing blue fluid all over the hood.
