Im trying to find a way to format the font better, this was just a prototype to see what people think of it... more feedback the better!

kholy · 02-20-2012, 09:34 PM

Need some thoughts on this app... is it worth my time? will anyone use this? i find it very useful already.. please respond with feedback

Pretty cool actually, I would use this, its better than having to carry a laptop into the garage, or print out the DIY articles.

I think this is a great idea. Not something you would use every day but when needed it would be handy, especially for those who don't have a laptop or iPad etc.
Perhaps a link or PDF of service manual embedded would be useful?
Just my initial .02.

It's pretty handy when working with the car versus having to run back and forth to the desktop (I'm not a laptop guy).

This will also work on ipad/android tablet

if you can find where to get this sort of information i could gladly include it

Also, could use about 7 testers with different devices... iPhone, iPad, android 2.3, android 3.x, android 4.x, blackberry, Palm WebOS

PM or Reply on here if interested.

Nothing worse than having to print out a DIY thread, and my mac book pro will never find itself in range of auto fluids. Using a browser on my phone is too big a pain to zoom and click precisely.
