Stop losing money on stuff that breaks. WarrantyBox is a coverage-window engine for everything you buy for your home — it keeps every receipt and warranty in one steel vault and tracks up to three real timelines per item so you always know exactly what is still protected. Most trackers store a single date. WarrantyBox is different: for each product it follows the store return window, the manufacturer warranty and an optional extended warranty in parallel — each with its own countdown, its own status (Active / Closing soon / Expired) and its own reminder. A single headphone can be "Return window closed, Manufacturer active — 42 days left, Extended active" and the app works it all out for you. EVERYTHING IN ONE VAULT See all your protected purchases as clean cards, each with a color coverage strip and a badge for the window closing soonest ("Warranty ends in 42 days"). Items expiring soon rise to the top with an amber highlight; expired ones group quietly below. Filter by category or status, search by name or store, and watch your total protected value at a glance. SNAP THE RECEIPT, AUTO-FILL THE TERMS Add an item in under twenty seconds. Pick a category and WarrantyBox pre-fills the typical manufacturer warranty and return window from a built-in library covering electronics, large and small appliances, power tools, furniture, footwear and apparel, jewelry and watches, auto parts, mattresses, phones and more. Add the product name, store, price, purchase date and serial or model number, attach a photo of the receipt and the product, and you are done. Every deadline is editable. THREE COVERAGE WINDOWS, ONE GLANCE Open any item to see all three coverage windows as horizontal bars that drain toward their expiry date, each with the exact end date and days remaining. Toggle any window on or off, adjust how far ahead you want to be reminded, and add your own notes. GENERATE A CLAIM PACKET IN ONE TAP When something breaks, WarrantyBox assembles a ready-to-send claim dossier — product, serial or model, purchase date, store, price, remaining coverage and the receipt photo — with an editable claim message. Export it to a PDF right on your device and attach it to the manufacturer's email. REMINDERS BEFORE IT EXPIRES A clear agenda groups every upcoming deadline into Soon, This month and Later, across all your items and windows. Set default reminder lead times per window type so a return window or a lapsing warranty never catches you off guard. 100% OFFLINE, NO ACCOUNTS Everything lives on your device. The category warranty library is built in, your photos and PDFs stay local, and there is no login, no backend and no tracking. Your receipts are yours. Why WarrantyBox: - Three coverage windows tracked per item, not one date - Category library that pre-fills typical warranty terms - Exportable claim packet the day something fails - Return, manufacturer and extended windows with color status - Reminders before every deadline - Works fully offline, no account required Start protecting your purchases today.
