What the app does.

NPN Dash connects directly to compatible NPN Classics replacement boards via Bluetooth. It allows you to monitor service intervals, configure system behavior and customize instrument cluster LED functionality.

NPN Dash connecting to device
Connectivity

Direct Bluetooth.
No internet required.

The app communicates with the hardware device directly over Bluetooth Low Energy. No internet connection, no cloud, no third-party services involved.

Direct BLE Connection

The app connects directly to the NPN Classics device. All communication stays between your phone and the hardware.

No Internet Connection Required

The app works fully offline. No data is sent to or received from external servers at any point.

Hardware Operates Independently

The NPN Classics device stores and runs service intervals and shift light configuration on its own — the phone is not required for the hardware to function.

Showcase

Test without driving.

The Showcase tab lets you trigger LED sequences and visual effects directly on the instrument cluster without the vehicle running. Useful for testing LED functionality and verifying correct operation after installing an NPN Classics replacement board or changing configuration settings.
