Motored
Service and repairs
Oil changes, brakes, tires, whatever you had done — and whether you did it yourself or a shop did. Attach the photo of the invoice while you still have it.
Car maintenance log · iPhone & Android
Your car’s whole history, in one place.
Motored is a car maintenance log for every car you own. Write down the service, the repair, the mod, the fill-up and what it cost — and Motored tells you when it is due again, then hands the whole record back whenever you ask.

What it keeps
A service history you will actually keep
A glovebox full of receipts is not a service record — it is a pile you hope to find again. Motored is the same information, written down once, in an order that survives the four years between buying the car and selling it.
Mods and parts
What you fitted, what it cost, before and after. A build sheet you can hand to the next owner, rather than a forum thread you cannot find.
Fuel, charging and real MPG
Every tank and every charge, with the miles per gallon you actually get rather than the number on the window sticker. Partial fills and missed fills are handled.
What it has all cost
Year by year, and what that works out to a month. The figure most people guess at, and guess low.
Car maintenance reminders
Reminders that follow your mileage
Set an oil change for every 6 months or 5,000 miles and Motored watches both. The timing comes from how much you have been driving lately, so a month of long commutes moves the reminder closer and a month in the garage pushes it back.
You hear about it once, a little before it is due. Never a drip, never a badge that sits there going red.
Intervals already written down
Oil, tire rotation, brake fluid, cabin filters, spark plugs, timing belts, coolant, insurance renewal and the annual inspection. Every number is yours to change before you save it.
Whatever it runs on
Gas, diesel, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, electric, hydrogen, LPG. An electric car is never asked about oil changes, and a gas car is never asked about kWh.
Adding a car takes a minute
Scan the VIN or type what you drive. Fill in as much or as little as you like — none of it is required, and Motored would rather show nothing than a guess.
Works with no signal
Written for a garage with concrete walls. Logging a job, checking what is due and reading the whole history all work with the phone offline.
Your records
Everything you write down comes back out
Export the lot to a spreadsheet, or take a full backup with the photos, whenever you like — free, always. Motored also keeps a quiet copy on the phone each week, and the last three are always there.
A logbook you cannot get back out of is not a logbook. If Motored disappeared tomorrow you would still have every word of it, in CSV and JSON, readable by anything.
Spreadsheet export
Two CSVs — one for the cars, one for every entry — plus the photos, in a zip.
Full backup and restore
One file holds the whole logbook. Move to a new phone, or keep it somewhere safe; either way it is a file you hold.
Seventeen languages
English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Czech, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Indonesian and Arabic.
No account to make
Open it and start writing. There is no sign-up, no email to confirm and no password to lose.
Questions
Before you download it
Do I need an account?
No. Motored has no sign-up, no email confirmation and no password. Open the app and start writing. Buying Pro goes through the App Store or Google Play, which handles the payment with the account you already have there.
Does Motored sync between my phone and my tablet?
Yes, with Pro. Buy Pro, create an account, and your cars, entries and photos are on every device you sign in on. Motored offers this after you buy, never before.
Free stays free and stays offline. A free logbook is never asked to sign up and nothing in it is ever uploaded. Sync is yours to turn on, Settings turns it off, and the privacy policy sets out exactly what is stored, where, and for how long.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Logging a job, checking what is due, reading the history and running the cost report all work with no signal at all. Two things do use the network when you ask for them: decoding a VIN, and buying Pro.
Can I get my data out?
Whenever you like, free. Motored writes two CSVs and a JSON file, bundles them with your photos into a zip, and hands it to the share sheet. CSV opens in any spreadsheet; the JSON is the same data in a form a program can read.
Does it track fuel and MPG?
Yes — every fill-up, with the miles per gallon you actually get rather than the manufacturer’s figure. Partial fills and fills you forgot to log are both handled rather than quietly wrecking the average. Electric cars log charging the same way, in miles per kWh or kWh/100 km.
Which phones does it run on?
iPhone and Android. Motored is built for the phone rather than the tablet — it is the thing you have in your hand in a car park.
What does Motored collect about me?
Your logbook is yours and we do not read it. Motored does send product analytics — which screens get used and which features get tapped, never what you wrote in them — and it sends a VIN to a US government database when you ask it to decode one. It also tells Meta, Google and Apple which of our ads brought you here, after asking; you can turn that off in Settings. The privacy policy lists every one of those, what leaves the phone and what does not.
Start with the car you drive most
Write down the last thing you had done and the mileage it was done at. Motored works out the rest from there.
