Email privacy@maintenancecrew.app with your question or feedback. Include the app version (Settings → About) and, if relevant, a brief description of what you were doing when the issue occurred.
Go to Settings → Load Sample Data. This populates the app with a demo vessel, schedules, and parts so you can explore features before adding your own boat. You can clear sample data by deleting the demo vessel from the vessel list.
All data is stored locally on your device. If you had iCloud Backup enabled, your data may be present in an iCloud Backup that was made before the deletion. Restore from a backup using your device's standard iCloud restore process. Maintenance Crew does not operate any server-side backup; we cannot recover data on your behalf.
The PDF manual parsing feature requires an API key from Anthropic. Sign in to Claude, go to API Keys, and create a new key. Paste it into Settings → Claude API Key in the app.
Your key is stored on your device and is sent only to Anthropic's servers when you initiate a parse. See the Privacy Policy for details. Anthropic may charge for API usage depending on your plan.
Location access is used only for Ship's Log entries. If location is unavailable:
On macOS, location is derived from Wi-Fi network position and may be less precise than GPS. If you're in an area with limited Wi-Fi networks, the app may not be able to determine your location.
PDF parsing uses Anthropic's Claude AI. A few things to check:
If parsing succeeds but specific tasks are missing, you can add them manually from the maintenance schedule screen.
Maintenance Crew is currently in TestFlight beta. Request an invitation by emailing privacy@maintenancecrew.app.
