About this app
What Garagebook does
Garagebook is the offline service log for the 284 million vehicles on US roads — built for the owner of an aging car (the average US vehicle is now 12.8 years old) who just wants a clean record of what's been done and a reminder when the next oil change is due. The car-log category is broken: Drivvo buries the tiny font under huge ads and paywalls PDF export, AUTOsist charges fleet pricing ($59/mo minimum) absurd for a household, and Fuelly is a web-first social network that wants an account for your own mileage. What Garagebook does: — Per-vehicle service history. Log oil changes, brakes, tires, fluids, batteries, inspections — date, mileage, cost, shop, notes. Photo the receipt; VisionKit reads the total and odometer. — Bundled service intervals. Garagebook ships sensible defaults (oil every 5,000-7,500 mi, tire rotation every 6,000, brake fluid every 2 years) and reminds you by mileage or date. No VIN lookup, no network. — Fuel log. Fill-ups with gallons + cost → automatic MPG, cost-per-mile, and a trend chart. — The resale binder. One tap exports a clean PDF of the full service history — the document a buyer or mechanic actually trusts. Print it or AirDrop it. — Multiple vehicles. The whole household's cars, one app. — Reminders that work offline. Local notifications for upcoming service. — No account, no ads, no subscription, no cloud. Your maintenance records live on this phone. For the 26 million American DIY car owners and every household keeping a car past its warranty.

Why it exists
The problem
Owners of aging cars want a simple per-vehicle service log with interval reminders and a shareable PDF history, but Drivvo is ad-heavy and paywalls export, AUTOsist is fleet-priced, and Fuelly requires a cloud account.
What's different
How Garagebook stands out
Garagebook is the only car-maintenance app that works entirely offline with no account, ships bundled service-interval reminders (no VIN API), reads receipts/odometers via VisionKit OCR, and exports a clean resale-binder PDF for free — Drivvo paywalls PDF export and buries the UI in ads, AUTOsist charges $59/mo fleet…
