Welcome to the DarkSide ...

DarkSideSoft is focused primarily on delivering cloud based mobile and web software solutions. A mobile app that just stores data locally is simply not that useful anymore. If you lose your phone, your data is gone. Synchronizing and backing up data is too much effort and unnecessary today. Cloud storage is perfect for sharing data and accessing it across multiple devises. It's like your email, you should be able to access it anywhere from any device.

DarkSideSoft will attempt where possible to provide solutions that deliver both a Mobile and Web component. When you are at your desk, you may prefer to access your data from a large screen browser but on the go, you would pull out your phone and use a responsive mobile app. With offline data caching, you may even be able to view data and add more while offline. Then when you return it synchronizes the offline changes.

Maintenance Activity Tracker or MAcTrack for short is a cloud based Maintenance Reminder app for tracking regular recurring personal and home maintenance tasks. We all have numerous maintenance activities that we need to track on a regular basis. Things like replacing the filter on the home air conditioner every months or going for a medical check-up with the doctor once a year or replacing the car engine oil every six months.

These regular maintenance activities recur on some approximate frequency, so regular calendar notifications are just a useless nag and too easy to dismiss when you can acceptably delay “a few more weeks”. MAcTrack Maintenance Reminders are simple and configurable.

Maintenance Activity Tracker is designed to be extremely simple to add and edit maintenance schedules that recur on some frequency of days. A new task / activity is due on the defined start date and when you track the activity as performed, the new due date is automatically set based on the date performed and frequency.

The activity history shows a full list of all the dates on which the activity was performed and shows the average number of days between dates performed. Tap on a date performed if you need to edit or delete that history record.

Here is a downloadable list of common Maintenance Activity Ideas that may give you ideas to get started. This list is now available in the app from version 1.0.4 for you to easily select and automatically create Activities.

The app stores it's data on a secure Google cloud database server. It internally caches some data and may allow adds and changes while offline and automatically synchronizes them when back online. There are some limitations, so try it out. Data changes made on a profile (email + password) will instantly update on any other devices (or the wesite) signed in to the same profile. So, the app allows you to have multiple profiles and supports multiple devices. For example, you and your spouse can track the same maintenance tasks with instant data refreshing.

As the developer, I technically have access to all data (except your password). This is not uncommon, I'm just totally upfront about it. I have no interest in how often you maintain your A/C or go to the dentist, but I suggest you don't store any sensitive/confidential information.

Privacy Policy and End-User License Agreement

A detailed privacy policy is available to view and download, but in a nutshell, we will never share, sell, rent or misuse your data.

Here is the latest downloadable Privicy Policy.

An End-User License Agreement (EULA) is included in the MAcTrack app. You must accept it to be able to use the app.

Pricing

Maintenance Activity Tracker, will initially be introduced for free. I strongly believe that you should be happy with the product before paying for it. It will start out with reasonable 100 maintenance activity limit but may at some point restrict it to say 10. If you start using the app now, you will keep your 100 limit if you remain on the free version.

Eventually a "paid" version will be available for a few Dollars that will have a very reasonable record limit. Some maximum maintenance activity record count will always be needed to ensure fair use and performance for everyone. Let us know if you really need to be able to add more.

If you like Maintenance Activity Tracker and appreciate all the work that has gone in to it, please show your support by reviewing the app on Google Play or at lease rate us - it takes just 3 seconds from the app's "Free..." menu.
