MOT Garage keeps the dates that matter for every car in your household in one simple list. Add each car with its registration, then the MOT, tax, insurance and service dates, and the garage shows what is due next with a reminder before each one.

How it works

MOT Garage in 6 steps

Real screens from the app, filled with example data.

  1. See what is due next
    1

    See what is due next

    Every date for every car at home is sorted by what comes first. In the example, the work van's tax was due 3 days ago, so it sits at the top in red.

  2. The whole year at a glance

    The whole year at a glance

    Dates coming up soon are marked in amber and the rest sit under Later, so nothing comes as a surprise. Tap any line to open that car.

  3. Every car with its dates

    Every car with its dates

    Each car shows its MOT, tax, insurance and service dates, what is next and the advisories to watch. In the example, the family estate has 2 advisories to watch.

  4. Renew a date in one tap

    Renew a date in one tap

    Type dates as day, month and year and see how far away they are. When you renew tax, insurance or a service, one tap moves the date on a year.

  5. Keep your MOT renewal date

    Keep track of MOT advisories

What it does

Everything in one place

One garage for the whole family

Add up to a handful of cars, vans or a second car for a teenager. Each one keeps its own dates and notes, and the garage view sorts everything by what is due first.

Overdue, soon and later

Anything past its date is marked overdue, anything in the next 30 days is marked soon, and the rest is listed as later, so you can see the whole year at a glance.

Reminders before each date

Turn on reminders and choose 30, 14 or 7 days before, plus a reminder the day before. They are local notifications on your phone, at 9 am.

MOT dates done right

See the earliest day you can have the MOT and keep the same renewal date, worked out from the rule on GOV.UK. Add the first registration date and the app works out the first MOT for a newer car.

Renewed in one tap

When you renew the tax, insurance or a service, one tap moves the date on a year. After an MOT pass, type the test date and the app suggests the new expiry.

Notes on advisories

Type the advisories from your MOT result, tick them off when they are fixed, and keep an eye on the rest before the next test.
