Reminders can be created by marking an existing service entry as repeating, or they can be created individually without an existing service entry.

Repeating Expenses

To set a repeating interval on an expense, open an expense entry and select Repeat.

Repeat Interval: The repeat interval for the service or expense. Entries can repeating by time interval, distance interval, or both.

Type: Determines what happens when the repeat interval is reached. If set to Reminder, Road Trip will present a notification when due. This is ideal for regular scheduled maintenance, licensing renewals, etc. If set to Automatic Recurring Expense, the entry will automatically repeat without a notification. This is ideal for monthly recurring payments.

Reminder: Determines when you will recieve the notification for an upcoming service.

Individual Reminder

To create an individual reminder (without a previous expense entry), tap-and-hold the "+" button until a menu appears, then select "New Reminder".

Next, set the reminder Description, Due Date and/or Due Odometer, and optional repeat interval. Tap "Done" to save.
