My take away...the XTOOL AD20 and the RepairSolutions2 are the best for under $50.
(Note, RepairSolutions2 are sold under different badges so choose the cheapest: Innova 1000 at $100 off amazon / blktech scanner 430 $65ish off amazon / Zurch sold at Harbor Freight $60 / Hyper Tough HT500 $50 at Walmart).
These both check all modules and have a great app interface. Note, in the video above, he corrected in the comments that his top pick Topdon requires subscription, so it's not a top pick. BlueDriver is also great, but their app design is getting dated in how it appears as it hasn't been updated in a long time, so much so that it's recent update jokes how they're still alive. Repair Solutions 2 app looks the best imo with the graphs and interface and what I recently picked up (off eBay for $40), but AD200 by XTOOL is a great pick that does a better job in getting the latest OEM codes for recent vehicle in the past few years whereas Innova waits for OEM to release it which can delay having recent codes.
Also, the AD20 Pro is sold new for just $20.39 on eBay from XTool-Online [ebay.com] making it a no brainer and likely would have been my choice.
If the later, then no, you'll need something that's bi-directional capable then these simple OBD readers that can only read and reset ABS-related codes. Look at the XTOOL AD30 for the best price imo in this category without future costs. (Note, the AD30D has more functions, and the AD30M has even more functions and the popular one). The Gearwrench GWSMARTBT (which is an XTOOL AD30M rebadge with some even extra functions) is also a good buy if equal or close to the M pricing. See the same eBay sellers for the AD30s.
