A brick wall that i've smacked into with hex codes

Questions about Thunkable

I’m currently attempting to make an app for my mechanic shop. I’ve mentioned this before. I bought a Bluetooth obd2 plug that was capable of transmitting live data. the issue is, apparently the obd system has an immensely complicated hex system that ive been trying to wrap my head around for about a week now. . .

I see all of these apps using a (not web) api to parse this data. I’ve spent almost a year on this platform trying to get this app working only for the thing, that i assumed was going to be the simplest, and is the most crucial to be something that I don’t think, from what i know, thunkable is capable of helping with.

all I’m attempting to do is get some data from the sensors every so often based on time or the cars mileage, assuming i can parse it.

does anyone know of a function that i could possibly use to overcome this?
