After 12-years looking for the right app for my business fleet, this IS the one (pro version VMTP at least)!!! The only app better than this VMT, is VMTP (PRO VERSION)!! I thought this app had it all, until I saw and upgraded to the pro version (separate app, same developer with MORE!), and all my info transferred over seamlessly. You can also join the Facebook group where the developer asks questions, walks people through issues, and uses feedback to create several new features. So many new changes in the past 1.5 years. It truly takes care of over 100 vehicles, machines, trailers and equipment. Thank you for staying on top of the requests and updates etc. I’ll never use another vehicle maintenance app!!!
I love this app. I wanted something where I could track maintenance as I do a lot of my own maintenance but could also upload receipts and other data needed for historical value. I also like that I can set reminders on timelines I want vs the manufacturer ( I tend to perform maintenance more frequently that suggested by manufacturer). Export history to CSV files for backup, data comparison or printing out. Whoever buys my truck after me will have a comprehensive life history above and beyond CarFax. Great tool with a ton of features in just the free version- or upgrade to pro for a small recurring fee. This is the first app review I’ve ever done but stands out so much I had to let people know. Well done!
So far been having this app for over 4 months now and use It on both my car and minivan maintenance I’ve done or have done at a shop. Pretty cool feature to have more than 1 car on “garage” tab and can click on either car/minivan to update. Keeping track of money usage, mileages, etc is a pretty cool feature on this app. So far been loving it and plan to keep using it. In the future I’ll plan to update on the comment for a good review or bad “which haven’t had any”
Just download and start using it. You will be glad you did. I’m able to keep track of my vehicles. And tractor and rtv. I’m able to see when and where a repair is made. I keep photo copies of my receipts on this app. I know when I purchased a part and helps me keep up with lifetime warranties. The developer does respond to questions very quickly. He takes consideration of suggestions too.
First time I tried adding additional info to my vehicle, I edited the fuel type and added a few lines under Additional Notes. After pressing save, I went back to look at the info and nothing was saved. I did the same process with the same results. Then I tried adding only the additional notes and leaving the fuel type alone. Pressed save, opened the info page again to check and nothing was saved. This time though I fully backed out to the My Garage section, then reopened the vehicle info and the notes were properly saved. Pretty annoying, but not a deal breaker. But then I kept adding info to the Additional Notes section, only to find out that the section doesn’t have proper scroll bar functionality. So I can add a bunch of lines of text, but if it’s more than 5, I won’t be able to scroll down to see everything I’ve written. Which is useless for my use case.
I’ve used this app for about a year now. Doing my own repairs and maintenance on our family vehicles, it’s amazing how easily I forget which car had what service. This tracker is great for simple free hand writing (no complicated or cumbersome drop down menus) and setting reminders for each vehicle. The app isn’t overly complicated and I haven’t ran into any bugs. This is certainly much easier than the paper and pencil method I used to do!
Very utilitarian app, that I find this app incredibly useful as a rural mail carrier who maintains he own vehicle, keeping track of which store I purchased warranty parts, when parts were replaced, and how much I’m spending on repairs. I’ve tried other methods but this one is working very well for me since I almost always have my phone with me. I hope it continues to evolve, a part number box would nice, over the long haul it could be helpful to have a way to search the data base quickly and easily.
It’s DIESEL. Diesel. Not desiel. How can an app designed to maintain vehicles get this wrong? I read the reviews and was very excited to try this app out. I opened it up and was prompted to tap the “+” to add a vehicle. I did so. The fourth box I was filling in already has a spelling error. Diesel is how you spell the word, not desiel. If I’m only 20 seconds into the app and I’m already finding errors on something that a simple spellcheck can fix then why would I think the more complicated aspects of this app are in working order?
Everyone has said this is a good app so I downloaded it the other day. Entered some of my vehicle’s info into it that day. Went back into it today after changing the rear brakes, oil, oil filter, air filter and entered in more information into this app, clicked save and went to enter more info and everything I had just typed in was GONE!! So i thought I’d it one more time and once again, everything I entered into it was gone. I even did a screenshot of the info before I clicked save and it didn’t have any info in it either!! So I tried just one more time and yep, it lost the info AGAIN!!! This app is a piece of $#!T in my opinion! I’ll find some that ACTUALLY WORKS!!!
I find this app extremely useful so far for inputting my maintenance and it saves me time and space from using pen and paper. I would say the only thing I can’t figure out is how to make the picture attachments work properly. I can upload them and see the pictures but unfortunately they are very blown up and it cuts off the image along with squishing the text together. I would give this app a 5 star review if there is a fix or some way to make the images show normally. I am using an iPhone 11.
Been using this to track the maintenance on my truck and it keeps getting better and better by its creator probably from feedback and probably from ideas he has to improve it. I’ve emailed the creator a few times and he’s quick on the replies and great to send ideas to. Probably my favorite app to use aside from a navigation or web search one. Thank you!
Still giving 5 stars in spite of a problem. I’m using an iPhone 11. When I upload a photo (such as the receipt from the shop the performed the service) the photo can only be displayed back very small. I see no option to download it or any way to make it larger to read it. The best option is to screen shot it and blow it back up, but then it is hard to read. Wish this could be fixed. Love this app.
I didn’t want a monthly or yearly fee, but so many tracking apps have that. This one does not. Log all the vehicles you want, and the services you’ve performed on them, etc. Perfect! If you want fancy graphs or colored pie charts to show the services you’ve done on your vehicle, go elsewhere and pay for that. THIS right here is a practical, simple app and all that’s needed for vehicle maintenance records. To the developer(s), thank you!
This was a great app designed to keep a maintenance log of your vehicle. It helps to remind you on what you replaced, when, why and the costs. I personally need to keep updating it because at times I forget, and that would be my one recommendation. Definitely use this, whether you are experienced or not at all like me. This keeps me in truck and in "lingo" when I talk to mechanics or anyone. Thanks Maintenance Tracker! Great app!
Very simple to use! Just what I was looking for. I am able to track all my DYI maintenance with photo documentation. Love that this can be sent via email. I do most all of my own preventative maintenance. When it’s time to sell I want to be able to show and prove the maintenance was done regularly as scheduled. This app is perfect for that application and very easy to use. Thanks for taking your time to make and maintain this app!!
After the last update, when adding a service from the check list, the app will not let me scroll to the bottom of the list. Other than that it is a great app. Update to review: the developer fixed the problem in a timely manner. Works great now. A solid 5 stars.
I love the features this app offers. I love that it’s not affiliated with a major car sales company and allows me to track many vehicles. I wish the developer would add a “comments” box to each maintenance entry so I could record details not covered by the checklist or the uploaded photos. I just upgraded to the paid version so I can access the data on other devices.
I’m withdrawing my comment and matching the current average rating because the developer informed me that it is Apple who controls the rating requests (and I can’t figure out how to remove my review). If I try the app again, I may be back. Thank you to the developer for taking the time to respond to me. I previously said: It prompted me for a rating immediately upon first opening the app.
I enjoy this app. Getting my wife and two sons to care about their cars is a challenge. And me tracking their maintenance is worse. This app has been very helpful. I like the email info feature. Great job. I joined you’re Facebook page. I have a couple of questions and a couple thoughts.
A major downside for me is the fact you have to sign in every time you use the app. The app doesn’t allow the password to be saved and retrieved from Keychain. I’m using the app on my iPhone, I should not be forced to sign in every time. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app does not help. For me I’m only storing car maintenance information, something I don’t need password protected. Really frustrating.
It is very effective and simple to use. The “Date Chooser” for work done is very easy. Well done! The app does not restricts the information you want to add to each log and it even lets you take pictures of for example the oil and filter used. The only thing missing is a “complete service history list” with filters and iCloud backup support. That why the 4 stars.
I must a say, this would be the perfect app for fleets to use as well as larger families if only you could add categories. My husband and I are are car people and have projects as well as care for family members vehicles. It would be great split it up for example, mom, dad, grandma etc. For small companies caring for a fleet it would be amazing to have categories for them as well.
This is a decent app, but has some areas that could easily be improved. I’m not on Facebook so have emailed my questions but no response. Login is a pain—needs easier login (face or finger id), or allow user to select password. As no one is gonna hack my vehicle info maybe just make it unprotected. Maintenance entries need an additional line for notes. Response to feedback would be great.
If, at 74 yrs, I can understand how to use it and it provides me with all the data, tracking and reporting I want, then you know it’s a great app. AND, no ridiculous monthly or yearly fee. Just get it and you’ll be glad you did!
I absolutely love this app! I’ve been using the VMT (Free) for like 2 years and today I decided to upgrade to Pro! It has really been a life saver keeping track of my maintenance and finding receipts when I need to confirm warranties! Thank You Developer(s)
The report shows only the cost of the parts. It should show both the costs of parts and labor and/or total cost. Please add a import function so that we can transfer the data to a new phone when we replace old phone with new phone. Thanks
This is just what I was looking for! I use it to track maintenance and annual cost of my snowmobiling addiction... not sure I wanna see it but this allows me to. The fact that this app exists and is free is awesome. Thank you so much to the developers, Apple should include this as a standard app!! Lol
Great app, but the updates are slow. It’s understandable that the developer would prioritize updates for the paid version, but it’s been over a year since the free app got any fixes. But, I guess you get what you pay for.
I use this to log services, parts and for reminders on my 2 vehicles. It’s pretty simple and works exactly as I need it to. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Thank you!
Looks like it would be a great app but I can’t delete or archive from the garage. If this was fixed it would be useful. UPDATE: Found delete by chance. If I press to the right of Edit, it goes to delete. There is no delete button; it is just a blank space.
Love the app. You can add any maintenance or just about anything you have completed or want to keep track of. The ability to keep pictures is simply a game changer.
I have used a work soon excel to track my vehicle maintenance and repairs for 20 years. Finally a simple a good product to use. It is very adequate and easy to use.
This app is very good for its intended purpose. It allows the user to keep a record of what maintenance was done and when. Other apps have too many proprietary features. I like this one for its simplicity.
This app does everything I typically need to do. A feature enhancement if car manufacturers would allow is via api import from manufacturers database my vehicle maintenance history.
I think this up is good but not very intuitive. I struggle to find how to add task and get reminders. There seems to be an current odometer reading but it is not showed when you create or edit the vehicle, yet it shows odometer reading at 0. With a little work, this will be a good and very valuable app.
Great app. Clean, simple and easy to use. Will replace my notepad I have used for years. If I was going to add anything, it would be the ability to add more maintenance information like oil type and brand. Spark plug type. Maybe oil plug socket size. Thanks.
I just downloaded the app not even 10min and it’s obsessively asking me for a review. I haven’t really had a chance to use it’s functions and try it out. It seems promising. But since the app is continually asking me for a review. 3 stars. For being annoying.
This app does not let me see when I did last change a filter in the Past, only that it should be checked in the Future. But then I cannot see how far back was the filter which is installed. Also, the text is too small.
Been looking for an app like this to keep track of machine maintenance. I’m a small engine tech for a good sized landscape company with a ton of machines and equipment. So far so good thanks for the app.
This app is just what I wanted. Simple and easy to keep a record of what’s done to your cars. Nothing gets in your way. It doesn’t pester you with ads. Great little app!
I have been using this app for quite a while to maintain all the maintenance records for my vehicles; it is AWESOME! Perfect app for me. Hats off to the developer for a great tool! Thank you!
Good way to keep-track of multiple cars. Some Vehicle-manufacturer’s Apps don’t allow user to add additional events (tire rotations, at-home repairs). Thanks for the great app!
The amount of upkeep on an RV is never ending. This app is a great way to prove it’s been well kept to a potential buyer when you go to sell it. Export .csv and everyone is happy. Thank you to the dev.
Nice app!! Just started to use it last year!! Still leaning what it can do!! Only worry it if I loose app, all my data gone?? Also what is diff in paid app?? Does that save the data?? Thanks David
