Common questions

How do I add equipment?

Tap the Equipment tab, then Add equipment. Pick the type (mower, outboard, water filter, and so on) and Gear Upkeep fills in the usual maintenance tasks, which you can change. Or tap Scan the model tag to photograph the sticker and let your AI fill everything in.

What does "Log it done" do?

It records the date (and hour meter reading, if the item has one) and moves the next due date forward automatically. The entry shows up in the service history.

How do reminders work?

Turn them on from the Due tab or in Settings. You get a notification a week before a task is due and again on the day, at the time you choose. Tasks that repeat by engine hours remind you once you've logged an hour meter reading.

Do I need an AI key?

No. Everything works without one. "Ask AI" opens ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity or Google with the question already written. An API key from your own Anthropic or OpenAI account is an optional extra that shows parts prices inside the app and powers Scan the model tag. The key stays on your phone.

How do I get a service history PDF?

Open the piece of equipment and tap Service history PDF near the bottom. To export everything at once, go to Settings and tap Export all equipment as PDF.

Is my data backed up?

Your data lives on your phone and is included in your normal iPhone backup (iCloud or computer). There is no account, so there is nothing to sign in to on a new phone; restore from backup to bring it across. A direct sync feature is on the list for a future update.

Can I change the fall and spring checklist dates?

Yes. Settings, then Seasonal checklists. Only the month and day matter.
