PitLog: Car Maintenance Log

PitLog is a DIY-first vehicle maintenance log built around a visual map of your car instead of a spreadsheet. Tap a part on the diagram, log what you did, track the parts and labor cost, and watch a running total of how much you saved versus a shop estimate.

A CAR YOU CAN SEE, NOT A LIST YOU SCROLL
Most maintenance apps flatten everything into one long category list that turns into a spreadsheet the moment you own more than one vehicle. PitLog starts from a top-down diagram of your car with 12 tappable zones - engine, brakes, tires, fluids, and more. Each zone shows its own health color at a glance, so you know exactly where something is due before you even open a record.

BUILT FOR DIY, NOT AGAINST IT
- Log every job as DIY or shop-done, with parts cost and labor cost tracked separately
- See a running total of money saved by doing it yourself versus a shop estimate
- Reminders are generated automatically from your own service history - based on date and mileage - not a generic factory schedule you have to fight with
- An Upcoming screen collects everything that's due across every vehicle you own
- Attach photos to any record - one included per record, unlimited with Pro
- Multiple vehicles in one garage, with quick switching between them

EXPORT AND BACKUP - NEVER LOCKED, NOT EVEN ON THE STARTING TIER
This is the one promise we won't break for revenue: exporting and backing up your data is never paywalled. CSV export works from day one, whether you've logged one record or a thousand. A rolling backup keeps your last five exports on your device automatically. Your maintenance history is worth more the longer you keep it - some records outlive the car they were written for - so PitLog never auto-deletes anything. Deletion only happens when you choose it.

NO CLOUD, NO SUBSCRIPTION
PitLog doesn't run a server. Your data lives on your device, and if you want a cloud copy, export to your own iCloud or Google Drive - not ours. Pro is a single one-time purchase, never a subscription: it unlocks a second vehicle in your garage, unlimited photos per record, and detailed part-by-part cost breakdowns. Everything else, including the full logging system, reminders, and unlimited CSV export, always stays included, forever.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Do I need an internet connection to use PitLog?
A: No. Logging, reminders, and history all work completely offline. Export and photo attachments are local too.

Q: Will my maintenance history ever get deleted automatically to save space?
A: Never. PitLog has no auto-delete or retention policy of any kind. Records stay until you remove them yourself.

Q: Is Pro a subscription?
A: No. It's a single one-time purchase. There's no recurring charge, ever.

Q: What happens to my data if I stop paying for Pro or get a refund?
A: Nothing you've already logged disappears. You just lose access to adding a second vehicle, unlimited photos, and detailed part breakdowns going forward - everything you've already recorded stays intact and exportable.

Q: Can I track multiple cars?
A: Yes. The starting tier covers one vehicle; Pro unlocks a second (and more) so you can manage a whole garage from one app.

Q: How are reminders calculated?
A: From your own logged history - date and mileage intervals you set per service item - not a fixed factory table, so they adapt to how you actually drive and maintain your vehicle.
