Banners & native ads
Small banners on the dashboard and list screens, and native ad cards inside some lists. They never cover credentials or in-progress forms.
From download to insight in four steps
How GarageBook works
No spreadsheets, no OTPs, no manuals. Here is the whole journey.
1
Create your account
Enter your 10-digit mobile number, your name and a 4-digit PIN, and accept the Terms & Privacy Policy. That's the entire sign-up — no email, no OTP. Your PIN is stored only as a one-way bcrypt hash.
2
Add your vehicles
Give each vehicle a name, plate, type and fuel type. Add the purchase details, current odometer, insurance and PUC expiry dates, and a photo if you like. Each vehicle becomes its own dashboard.
3
Log life as it happens
Paid for fuel? Log litres and price — the total and your km/l mileage are computed for you. Serviced the car? Pick the Service category and optionally schedule the next one. Heading out? Start a trip and attach its expenses. Renewal coming? Set one of nine reminder types.
4
Read the story
The dashboard greets you with this month's spend, upcoming reminders and recent expenses. Analytics breaks everything into monthly trends, category shares and per-vehicle numbers — and exports a PDF you can share.
The free model
How a free app pays its bills
GarageBook shows ads from Google AdMob. Here is exactly where and how — the same disclosure as our Advertising Disclosure.
Occasional full-screen ads
An interstitial may appear after saving a vehicle or trip, and an app-open ad only if the app was in the background for 4+ hours.
Rewarded unlocks
Per-vehicle analytics and the PDF export ask you to watch a short rewarded ad. You always choose to start it. You can also switch ads off in Settings.
A ₹499/year Remove Ads subscription is planned and visible in the app, but purchases are not live yet — the button reads "Subscribe Soon" and no payment is processed.
Sixty seconds to your first entry
Download, sign up with mobile + PIN, add a vehicle. Done.
