Latest reviews of Auto Upkeep app for iPhone and iPad
Very helpful app!! Lots of useful basic information about vehicles; taking care of it and maintaining of your vehicle!
I am being critical here. This is an okay app for someone like my dad, but someone like my dad is going to take his car to a mechanic or call a two truck driver to change a tire. For a hobbyist like me, I would love if this had more advanced detail, like how to change a thermostat, or how to flush a radiator. A torque specification look up tool would be nice too...
This app is more of like a book than an application...
This is a great app with information that everyone needs to know. Even if you know some of it, it never hurts to brush up or make sure youve been doing it right. Some may wish this was a resource for more advanced tips, but its really not advertised as such. I personally feel this is everything one would need for the basic issues people usually encounter. It does read like a book in parts, but that just makes sense in many places. It didnt even seem like too much reading to me and I think if it was just listing steps alone, it would be too vague and feel lacking. I enjoy the app. Thanks!
