Car Snaglist helps you keep track of every issue on your vehicle — from a cracked tail light to an engine warning — so nothing gets forgotten before your next service or repair. GUIDED ISSUE LOGGING The step-by-step wizard walks you through your car's anatomy: Exterior, Interior, Powertrain, Undercarriage, and Dashboard. Tap through progressive location levels to pinpoint exactly where the problem is — no guesswork, no typing long descriptions from scratch. Not sure where the issue belongs? Tap "Not sure" at any level and go straight to describing the problem. PHOTO EVIDENCE Attach up to 5 photos per issue to document damage, warning lights, or wear. Photos are resized and stored efficiently on-device — no cloud uploads, no accounts, no sign-ups. VIN DECODER Enter your vehicle's VIN and Car Snaglist auto-fills make, model, year, and technical details using the NHTSA vPIC database. No manual data entry mistakes. KEEP THE PAPERWORK TOGETHER Every vehicle gets its own set of documents. Photograph a licence disc or import a PDF policy and it stays filed against the right car. Sort everything into categories that match how you think: insurance, registration, accident reports, traffic fines, quotes and receipts. There's a General folder to fall back on, and you can add and rename your own. Give a document an expiry date and it shows a badge as that date approaches, so a lapsed disc is easy to spot before it catches you out. Like everything else, documents stay on your device. WORKSHOP-READY EXPORTS When it's time to visit the mechanic, export your issue list as: • A professional PDF report with vehicle details and issue descriptions • A workshop handoff list grouped by vehicle area Share directly via AirDrop, email, Messages, or any app that accepts files. MANAGE YOUR GARAGE Track issues across multiple vehicles. Each vehicle card shows open issue counts at a glance. Filter and search across all vehicles from the All Issues tab. ISSUE LIFECYCLE Move issues through statuses — Open, In Progress, Resolved — or hide resolved items to keep your list clean. Add notes and additional photos to any issue over time. DESIGNED FOR YOUR EYES The "Garage Noir" dark theme brings an automotive-workshop feel with amber accents and steel-toned surfaces. Supports light mode, dark mode, and system automatic. Fully accessible with Dynamic Type and VoiceOver support. FREE TO START Track one vehicle for free. Expand your garage with in-app purchase tiers: • +3 vehicle slots • +5 vehicle slots • +10 vehicle slots Tiers stack — buy what you need as your garage grows. PRIVACY FIRST All data stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud sync, no tracking. Optional anonymous crash reporting via Apple's MetricKit — opt in from Settings. Built with SwiftUI and SwiftData. Requires iOS 18.0 or later.
