CarPowerTest - dyno bench for Android
This app is engineered to be as accurate as possible, whatever the car, or the phone it is used with, thanks to exclusive processing.
You don't need any connection to use it, the processing is based on your mobile phone's accelerometer sensors.
The accuracy is very close to a real engine dyno, bench, but of course much cheaper.
It has been developped as a diagnostic tool, as a dynometer bench would be, perfect for detecting power losses or improvements (after ECU remapping for example).
