Default Ideal OBD scanner, ideally bluetooth

Hi all,
Made a new thread to try obtaining an up to date recommendation on what Bluetooth scanner to buy.
I have purchased a scanner that has its own unit, works well, but I'd prefer a Bluetooth scanner so I can view live data on my phone.

Will any generic one work well to find codes, or do I have to pay £30 onwards for one that isn't so generic?

I used to use the Torque Pro, but it quit communicating with the ELM 327 (on either vehicle), so I've dumped it.
So that's one I guess you can mark off.
