This app is beautiful. I can receive CAN messages perfectly. Unfortunately app crashes immediately when Transmit. Perhaps we can work together to solve this issue Tristan? Thank you in advance

I have and PEAK PCAN adapter attached to the ODB-II of a 2012 Chrysler 300 monitoring the high speed bus (500 kB/sec). I have the WiFi bridge running. When you app attaches to the bridge it almost immediately crashes. If I remove the adapter from the car it attaches fine and does not crash. It appears there is so much traffic on the bus that the app can't handle it. I've tried on both a Samsung Galaxy Note II and Evo 4G LTE, both very powerful phones. Seems the app can't handle the load. Would be good if I could somehow filter out messages, or just turn off the receiving. I think that would solve the problem I'm only needing to send messages for what I'm working on.
