This app is the best car maintenance app in the App Store. It does everything it should, it works well and has regular updates. I used to have another one years back, but it became discontinued and did not have all the features this one has. I have tried a few different ones in between the old one and this app and none of them had the ability that this one has to keep records like this one can. I greatly appreciate that this is not a subscription app or one that makes you login just to use. It simply works, is highly customizable, tracks multiple vehicles, and has a good looking interface. The only thing I would like to see is in regard to the home screen icon on my phone. It looks a little dated and does not work with dark icons for iOS 18. (This still takes nothing away from the strength of this app though.). If you need a car maintenance app, download this one.

Hi, thank you very much for your comments, I really appreciate it. You're correct, the app, icon hasn't been updated to work with the new, iOS18 Dark Mode app icons feature, this is something I will be updating in a future update. Again, thank you very much for your support.

I have 4 cars, two are really toys. This app helps me keep track of when I last did maintenance and give reminders based on milage and time. A great help. Despite my one “issue” below, this app is for you if you want help tracking when to service your car(s). The only thing I would change is the the way it lists maintenance due, it is alphabetical or by % of service life left, no choice of of due date. So something due in 8 months may be “yellow” if it is every 5-6 years and listed before something due in 2 months that is “green” and but due every year. Of course for my idea to work it would have to estimate miles/month to project when you will hit a milage threshold, maybe that’s why it works this way. Just scroll down to see what the dates are and you’ll be fine.

Hi, thank you very much for your comments and feedback, I really appreciate it. I totally agree, the sorting feature for services needs some improvements, it's in my TODO list already. Thank you again.

I found this app after another I was using is no longer available on my new device. After trying a couple of others I found this app to be very complete and customizable with services.The only recommendation I’d like to make on this app would be the addition of “hours” to miles and kilometers for a vehicle. This would allow more complete tracking of a boat, tractor, etc and keep everything on one app.Also, I really hope the developer will create a very similar app for home maintenance tracking. Seems like most would be very similar, would want to upload a picture of receipts for each service if applicable.

Developer Response
Hi, thank you very much for your comments, I really appreciate it. I'll see if I can add the tracking by hours feature in future updates. I agree, a home maintenance tracking app may help a lot of people but I won't lie to you, maintaining an app is not an easy task but I'll definately considere it. Thank you very much for the great suggestions.
Great app!

I’ve tried 10 different car maintenance apps in the App Store. This one was the best among the ones I’ve tried, and probably the best in the App Store. It has a simple yet modern user interface. It allows for a wide range of customization, iCloud and local backup, and freedom with adding and maintaining services and repairs. The best part of the app is the developer; they are active and constantly updating and improving the app through user feedback. They are willing to help with any questions that might arise through email which I have had personal experience with. Love the app and the developer is awesome!
