Android app in development

Know before it is due

Every car you own, every service it has had, and a reminder that arrives while there is still time to book it.

Open your garage Works in a browser today — the app is coming.

  • Counts down in days and in kilometres, whichever runs out first.
  • Speaks your language, including Arabic right to left.
  • Keeps your data to itself. No adverts, no trackers, no resale.
01

What it keeps

A maintenance record is only useful if it is complete, so the app asks for the whole car — not just a nickname.

The car as it actually is

Brand, model, year, engine, fuel, transmission, colour, plate, VIN, and what it read on the odometer the day you bought it. Reference data is translated, so a Toyota Corolla is تويوتا كورولا when you switch to Arabic.

A history that adds up

Every service with its date, the odometer at the time, what it cost, and the receipt attached. Costs total per currency and are never converted, because an exchange rate from three years ago is not a fact.

Reminders before, not after

Oil, filters, brake fluid, timing belt, tyres, insurance, registration — each with its own life in months, kilometres, or both. The one that runs out first is the one you hear about.

It learns how you drive

Two odometer readings a week apart are enough to work out your real daily distance, and the distance countdown uses that rather than an average nobody drives.

More than one car

A household, not a spreadsheet each. Every car keeps its own history, its own schedule, and its own notifications, and a car you sell keeps its record without nagging you again.

Your units, your language

Kilometres or miles, four languages, and full right-to-left layout in Arabic — chosen once in your account and honoured everywhere, including the text of the notifications.

02

How a reminder decides to arrive

This is the part most maintenance apps get wrong: they remind you on the day, which is the one day it is already too late to do anything about it.

  1. 01

    It works out when the item is next due

    From the last time it was done, plus the life of the item. An oil change every 12 months or 10,000 km is two deadlines, and the app tracks both.

  2. 02

    It converts distance into time

    Using your own daily distance, taken from your odometer readings. 10,000 km at 40 km a day is 250 days; at 120 km a day it is 83, and the reminder moves accordingly.

  3. 03

    It warns you four times, then once more

    Thirty days out, fourteen, seven, and the day before — or 1,000 km, 500 km and 200 km out when distance is what governs. Each milestone fires once and never twice.

  4. 04

    It arrives at a civilised hour

    Nine in the morning, in your own timezone, in your own language. An overdue item says how far past it is, rather than pretending it is still coming.

03

The same reminder, in every language

Not a mock-up: these are rendered from the same translation files the server uses to send them, so what you read here is what would land on your lock screen.

On your data

The app exists to hold a fairly complete picture of your car and your spending, which is exactly the kind of thing that should not be sold, mined or handed to an advertiser. It is not, and there is nothing in it that tracks you. The policy says so in plain language, and it is short enough to actually read.
