To your wonder, your Android-based smart-phone can manage the expenses of your car. Plus, it is also capable of effectively tracking maintenance costs and fuel mileage. But how?

Well, it’s a car-manager software, dubbed as aCar. Developed by Armond Avanes, this superb software has the capacity of tracking the expenses, maintenance services and fuel mileage of your car. Besides, aCar can track multiple vehicles and produce the result in statistical charts.

So, now you will be in a position to know the things that confront the performance of the car. Although aCar is a free software, a few of its enhancements are available only after pouring some money, may be US $5, 10 or 15.

The value-added attributes to the aCar are: backup of settings and manual data, automatic backups on daily, weekly and hourly basis, manual data restore, settings restore and data import from sources such as: Mileage app, Auto 3in1 app, Road Trip app, FuelFrog.com, Fuelly.com and Excel compatible plain CSV file. You can also export data to statistical charts and Excel-compatible CSV format.

Other than that, aCar also offers a number of other facilities, which you can avail without spending any extra bucks. A few of such app features are: tracking vehicle maintenance; tracking gas mileage; storing details of vehicles such as: make, model and license plate; support for MPG units (Canada, Imperial and US); gal/100mi units (US and imperial), km/gal unit (US and imperial); mi/L unit; L/100km unit; service reminders for time- and mileage-based vehicles, powerful filter and search and thorough vehicle statistics at a glance.

Besides, aCar is compatible with any Android 1.5-based phone or any compatible device. But extra care is needed if you want to upgrade your OS from 1.5 to 1.6 or even more than that.

If you are hit with the Known Bug while upgrading your operating system then you might be led to Forced Close and you might not be in a position to use or access your data any longer. To avoid being in such a situation, you should always keep a backup of your data, especially when it is easily supported by aCar. After keeping the backup of your data, you will have to uninstall it and re-install it when OS upgradation is over.
