HomeMender

HomeMender brings a professional maintenance management workflow to your iPhone, distilled into four focused modules and zero overhead. No accounts, no servers, no learning curve.

CORE MODULES
1. Maintenance Task Engine
• Nine standardized categories: HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, Exterior, Interior, Landscaping, Safety, Appliance, Other
• Five recurrence frequencies: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Biannually, Annually
• Seasonal scheduling: Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Year-round
• Automatic next-due-date computation on completion
• Status flags: Overdue, Due-Soon, On-Track

2. Appliance Asset Register
• Brand, model number, serial number, purchase date
• Warranty length in months with computed expiry date
• In-warranty / out-of-warranty status
• Per-asset lifetime repair cost rollup

3. Repair & Maintenance Log
• Date, cost, contractor name and phone
• Free-form notes and emoji tags
• Linked to either tasks or appliances for traceability

4. Local Notification Scheduler
• Pre-due reminders driven by UserNotifications
• No background polling, no remote payload
• Survives app removal and reinstall

ANALYTICS
• Total spend per category and per appliance
• Upcoming workload over the next 7 / 30 / 90 days
• Overdue queue with one-tap completion

ARCHITECTURE
• SwiftUI + SwiftData persistence
• Strict local-only data model — no URLSession traffic to third-party servers
• Compatible with iPhone running iOS 17 and later

POSITIONING
HomeMender is intentionally narrow. It is not a smart-home controller, not a contractor marketplace, not an AI chatbot. It is a single-purpose tool to record, schedule and remind, executed well.

Recommended for: long-term homeowners, multi-unit landlords, property managers, and anyone treating their residence as a tracked asset.
