Steward keeps your home running the way a good property manager would — quietly tracking what needs doing, before it becomes a problem. WHY STEWARD Homes don't come with a maintenance manual. HVAC filters, water heater flushes, gutter cleaning, smoke detector batteries — the tasks that protect your home and your wallet are easy to forget until something breaks. Steward turns that mental checklist into a system that reminds you, tracks what's been done, and remembers it so you don't have to. WHAT'S DUE, AT A GLANCE Open the app and see exactly what needs attention — overdue, due this week, due this month — grouped clearly so nothing slips through. Mark a task done in one tap and the next due date rolls forward automatically. HOME SETUP WIZARD Answer a few questions about your home — rooms, systems, appliances, water source, roof type — and Steward suggests a tailored maintenance schedule built from real manufacturer and safety-organization guidance, including the tasks people forget: septic pump-outs, sump pump tests, dryer vent cleaning, smoke detector testing. APPLIANCE & WARRANTY TRACKING Log every appliance with purchase date, price, and warranty, and get a heads-up before coverage expires. Attach photos, track service history, and see lifetime and year-to-date maintenance costs per appliance, per room, or for the whole home. ROOM-BY-ROOM DETAIL Every room has its own hub: paint codes, flooring, finishes, linked appliances, and everything due for that room — so touching up a wall or replacing a fixture is a lookup, not a guessing game. VENDORS & EMERGENCY INFO Keep every contractor, plumber, and repair vendor in one place with tappable phone numbers. Store your water shutoff, breaker panel, and utility contacts for the moments you can't afford to go searching for them. STEWARD PRO Sync your home across every device with iCloud, and share the whole household record with a partner or co-owner — tasks, history, and costs stay in sync between you, with each entry showing who logged it. Steward Pro is a one-time purchase of $9.99. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase confirmation. There's no subscription — it's yours once, permanently. If you were already using sync or sharing before this update, you keep both for free. STEWARD ON THE WEB With Steward Pro's iCloud sync, open steward.canosoftware.net/web on any computer, sign in with your Apple Account, and see what's due, log maintenance, and edit your home. It talks directly to your iCloud, so there's no separate Steward account. Accounts with Advanced Data Protection turned on can't sign in to the web version. BUILT FOR PRIVACY Steward runs entirely on your devices. No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no third-party trackers. Steward is the home maintenance app for people who'd rather get a reminder than a repair bill.
