the tricky part is , to make sure you scan software likes your dongle device.(endless cloned ELM's, exist some good some horrible)
the scantool.net tools worked only with their software, (they cripple it on purpose ,custom made by Palmer,to only run on their tools , they did last time I checked.)
but if you buy SW from the true maker DIRECT, palmer soft direct, it works on vast numbers of tools. (ask them about yours first) the exact tool may matter.
there are other APPS that from android that are fully of FLUFF.
GPS tracking and other stuff, or Tweeting you for god knows what (tool to you)?
what also matters if the tool can do factory codes, (your car has none but a few P1xxx codes, that are easy to scan)
other cars have extensive, P1, P2, codes, and for transmission and vast other things, with cars with 12 computers on board and CAN-BUS talking to them all even the RADIO on the bus. ABS, and Air bags too.
But for this car, the DTC possible are tiny.
the inventer and maker of the ELM is in Canada. and they have this page (the only real ELM is here,)

or home grown apps, seen on open source sites
here is simple java version, that can be changed to any thing you want. using the AT command set.

but turn key android apps, there are i guess 300 or more out there, and reviewing them is impossible, as they change so fast. (an many are full of FLUFF)
We want the BEEF? (opposite of Fluff)
all factory codes tops my list but not needed on this 96 (the tools that do this are from $2000 to $10000) but I have Innova that does all jeep codes P0 P1, P2, on up. all codes in my JEEP books, to 2017
ABS
Air bags.
and can loop scan all 02 sensors, for sure. and graph them, and log.
