A very open ended question, but at a high level:

for iOS OBD dongles, they create a wifi hotspot for the phone to connect to which allows OBD requests to be sent over wifi to the dongle, which will return the response from the ECU

This application simulates the service that these dongles expose, but you can connect to it directly using an ip, and then you can send OBD codes to it. for example 010B will get you Intake manifold absolute pressure.

This project isn't really in active development anymore, so there may be better solutions out there

So basically create a TCP socket to communicate with an IP at a certain port, i get that. What about communication over bluetooth?

No support for bluetooth in this application I'm afraid, feel free to add it in!
