Shop owners: a customer just asked "when did you do my brakes?"
Your software knows. They don't. GearOS closes that gap - the work stays on THEIR vehicle's record, named parts and invoice included, long after they drive off.
It cuts both ways. Owners choose exactly which vehicles to share with you. Booking runs on the open slots you control. And every review on your public shop page comes from a customer holding a real invoice from you. No drive-by reviews.
Good shops do good work. The record of it shouldn't be scattered across three inboxes.
When your shop runs GearOS, the work record and invoice land on your vehicle's page - real part names, serial numbers, who did the work. Proof you keep, for years.
When a buyer asks for service records, "trust me" is not an answer.
Dated logs. Receipts. Mileage. Next-due list. Proof sells better than promises.

0 votes • Final resultsA generator that won't start is just a heavy box you own.
Storm-season habit: run it monthly, check the oil, date the fuel, log all three. Four lines in a record beat one long night in the dark.
Small engines count too.
The mower has hours. The generator has a service date you've never met. The pressure washer has a carburetor that remembers everything you forgot.
If you maintain it, it belongs in your garage.
Your dad's truck. The mower. Two trailers. Your daily.
That's not "car app" territory - that's a garage. One shared list, so "did anyone grease the trailer bearings?" finally has an answer.
Every family has one person who knows when everyone's car needs something.
If your phone buzzes with "can you look at my car?" - congratulations, you're the family maintenance department. GearOS is built for that person.
The trailer always gets forgotten.
Bearings don't care that you remembered the truck. Hubs, tires, lights, the works - put the trailer in the garage too.
Pair your own Bluetooth LE OBD2 adapter and watch what your vehicle actually reports, live - coolant temp, fuel trims, ~90 standard readings in plain names.
The live view is live-only: nothing is saved unless you tap Start Recording. Your drive, your call.
Road trip this weekend? Five minutes in the driveway now beats a shoulder repair at mile 400.
The pre-trip once-over - bookmark this:
If you torqued it, logged it, and kept the receipt, you're ahead of most owners on the road.
The work deserves a record. That's it. That's the post.
