Field notes
Autotab’s workflow starts with records drivers already possess: fuel purchases, workshop invoices, renewal documents, and odometer readings. The page says invoice scans can preserve individual parts and labour lines, while service reminders combine distance and time intervals. Optional Bluetooth LE OBD-II hardware supplies live gauges and fault-code information, with CarPlay placing selected readings on the vehicle display.
