Paid subscribers will receive text or email notifications when maintenance items are due. Both the mobile app and web site allow viewing, adding, and deleting maintenance records, but only the website allows exporting records to a .csv file.

Exporting Maintenance Records

Maintenance records can be exported to a .csv file. This is useful in the event that account access is lost due to unreliable internet connectivity, or forgotten login information. As of version 2.22.0, the mobile application cannot export maintenance records.

1. Click the icon.
   
   
   
   
2. Choose an export range, then click DOWNLOAD. 
   
   Note: If maintenance records do not exist for the entirety of the chosen timespan, the "No Maintenance History for Selected Date Range" error will appear. Bypass this error by selecting a shorter date range, or by choosing All.
   
   
   
   
3. The records will download as a .csv file to the default downloads folder specified in the browser. On Windows systems this is usually the Downloads folder.
   
   
   
   A .csv file will open in common spreadsheet programs, such as Microsoft Excel. Maintenance records are sorted into rows and columns.
