CarMaintLog tells you exactly what your car needs — and when — based on your real odometer reading. Instead of another log where you set every reminder yourself, it knows the intervals, tells you what's due, and explains why it matters. No spreadsheets, no guesswork. WHAT IT DOES • Dual-axis due dates: every service is tracked by BOTH mileage and time — whichever comes first — so nothing slips. • Instant status: enter your current odometer and see at once what's due now, due soon, and still upcoming. • Service advisor: tap any item for the full picture — status, why it matters, the warning signs to watch for, whether it's a DIY or shop job, and its own service history. • One-tap logging: did a service? Tap Done, or log it with the cost and a note. CarMaintLog resets the clock and the odometer for that item automatically. • Car-condition dashboard: a color-coded progress bar for each item (oil, tires, air filter, brakes, coolant) shows how much of its service life is used. • Full service history: a running timeline of everything you've done, per vehicle, with mileage, date, and cost. • Cost of ownership: see total spent, cost per mile, average per service, and where your maintenance money actually goes. • Multiple vehicles: keep the whole household's cars, trucks, and bikes in one garage — each with its own schedule and history. • Smart reminders: get a push notification a week before each service is due and at the due mark. Opt into a gentle every-two-weeks odometer nudge so mileage-based due dates stay accurate. BUILT-IN INTERVALS Service intervals follow conservative, manufacturer-typical schedules and always carry the reminder to follow your own vehicle's manual. CARMAINTLOG PLUS Dual-axis tracking, reminders, one-tap logging, and the condition dashboard are free.
