Guide
How to log services, mileage and fuel-ups in Muvoo and set reminders so you don't miss an oil change, an inspection or your insurance.
Colours in the app
Each part of Muvoo has its own colour, so you can tell a record from a reminder at a glance.
Petrol – the app's main colour. The Overview and Vehicles use it too.
Purple – Records: services, mileage, fuel-ups and charging.
Blue – Reminders: deadlines for services, inspections, insurance or vignettes.
A reminder's status shows on a label: orange when the deadline is coming up, red when it's overdue.
Getting started
- Add your vehicle. Type, make, model and the dates of first registration and purchase are enough. You can fill in the rest later.
- Log the last service, such as an oil change, and set a reminder for the next one.
- Add your inspection, insurance or vignette with its "Valid until" date. A reminder is created for it automatically.
Then just keep logging mileage and fuel-ups. Your reminders will show what's coming up.
Overview
The first page after signing in. It shows upcoming and overdue reminders for all your vehicles and your latest activity.
If a vehicle has a mileage-based reminder and you haven't updated its mileage for a while, the Overview reminds you and you can update it with one tap. After how many days is up to you in Settings (30 by default).
Vehicles
Motorcycles, cars, vans, bicycles and more. For each one you can store the plate number, VIN, engine and purchase details and a photo.
When adding a vehicle you choose whether it's measured in kilometres or miles. This can't be changed later, as all its entries are in that unit.
The free plan allows up to 5 vehicles.
Records
A timeline of everything that happened to the vehicle, by year and month: services, inspections, insurance, vignettes, mileage entries, fuel-ups and charging.
At the top you pick one vehicle or all of them. Service types are offered by vehicle type (a chain, for example, only for motorcycles and bicycles).
If several things were done at one service visit, just duplicate the record and change the type.
Reminders
A reminder can watch a date, mileage or both, whichever comes first.
- From a record: tick "Add reminder" on the record and enter the next due date or mileage.
- Inspections, insurance and vignettes: the reminder is created from the "Valid until" date and moves with a new record.
- Standalone: you add it mainly when there's no record to create it from yet, such as for the first oil change of a new vehicle. You'll find it on the Reminders page.
How early a reminder alerts you is set for each one. The default is 30 days and 500 km/mi ahead, which you can change in Settings.
Quick entry
On a phone, the + button in the bottom menu updates mileage and logs fuel-ups and charging. On the Vehicles, Records and Reminders pages it also adds a vehicle, record or reminder.
On a computer, the same is under the Quick entry button. If you've picked a vehicle, the entry is saved to it.
Installing the app
You can install Muvoo on your phone or computer and open it from your home screen as a standalone app. In the ? menu in the header or in Settings, choose Install app.
On an iPhone or iPad the app shows you how: Share, then Add to Home Screen.
Settings and data
In Settings (the account menu in the top right) you change the language, appearance, currency, the unit for new vehicles and the default reminder alerts.
You can export all your data to a file (JSON or CSV) at any time. Settings also let you change your password, sign out everywhere and delete your account.
Frequently asked questions
Why should I update the mileage?
Dates move on their own, but a vehicle's mileage only changes when you log it. Mileage-based reminders (an oil change every 10,000 km, for example) use the last logged mileage. If you don't update it for a long time, the reminder won't alert you in time.
Every mileage entry counts, including those with a service or a fuel-up.
Will I get reminders outside the app?
Not yet. Upcoming and overdue reminders are shown in the app on the Overview and the Reminders page. Notifications outside the app are planned.
Can I switch a vehicle from km to miles?
No. The unit is chosen when you add the vehicle and all its entries are in it. The default unit for new vehicles is in Settings.
Is Muvoo free?
Yes. The free plan includes up to 5 vehicles with all current features.
How do I back up my data?
In Settings, under My data, you can download an export of all your vehicles, records, mileage, fuel-ups and reminders.
