You can download a scanner app (DashCommand and CarGauge Pro are decent ones) and, using a Bluetooth OBD adapter, can see the misfire counts, clear codes, etc.

Is the check engine light on right now? Was it cleared originally?

Here's the procedure for a wet compression test that should help determine the cause of the low compression.
