The CarDatabase App
Owning a classic car?
Looking for a way to easily record the lifecycle of your car?
Maybe this is for you!
Introduction
The CarDatabase App allows to store data related to your classic cars.
I have also made sure that it is easy to save and reload the data, since part of the motivation was the frustrating experience that apps come and go in the app store.
This app is still in the early stages, and I appreciate everybody using it and giving feedback below. I programmed this purely for my needs and for my education but believe that I am not the only one in need of such an application.
The app is largely self-explanatory to those who have ever shot large format. It was tested extensively on my iPhone 12pro Max under iOS 15 but should work on older or newer models as well. Maybe the UI suffers a bit on smaller screens.
Version history
Version 1.0: Released December 17, 2021. Initial fully functional public version.
Version 1.1: Released December 22, 2021. Added possibility to receive a reminder notification when the next inspection is due. Fixing a bug which switched last oil change and inspection due date.
Terms of Use and Privacy Statement
This app was checked by myself extensively and should not cause any damage to your system or any of its data. Nevertheless, I don’t take any responsibility for any loss of data or any other damage the app may do.
Also, while I strive to update the app for future iOS and iPhone versions to come, I cannot guarantee its working indefinitely. I strongly suggest that you regularly save the database to your iCloud or local directory. The files are structured in such a way that one can read them anytime with a standard text editor.
The app does use image data as well as other textual information which you decide to store. The app also uses the standard Apple interfaces to store or retrieve database content. No information or data are transmitted to the programmer of this app (myself) or to any third party.
