Welcome to the forum Robin,

I've moved your question from X150 to X300 forum. This is the place to post questions about your model.

You will find a very lengthy discussion on scantools in this thread in General Tech Help:

I have an Apple phone and many scan tools are not Apple compatible.
I have a Kiwi-3 OBDII Bluetooth thing, and there is a newer Kiwi-4 now available. It works well with my X300 and iPhone, although I’ve never had any codes, just lots of data live.
I use it with AutoDoctor software, total cost of device and software about $150 USD from memory
