Unfortunately, best way to know when to change is by visual/physical inspection. Computer only calculates(based on different factors) and does not measure. If the small dash light is on with yellow or red 'brake', that means sensor is tripped and will have to change pads.

Had a similar thing where service said rears needs to be changed. Got everything. Opened it up only to find I had 50% life left on pads. So now, I bypassed the cable and regularly visually inspect pads. On board computer is useless IMO.
