Comparison
Centriq was a popular appliance management app that stored manuals and product info in the cloud. It shut down in January 2025, leaving users without access to their data. FixLog is built differently — your data lives on your device, not on someone else's server.
Centriq is no longer available. FixLog is the best replacement: it covers everything Centriq did (appliance tracking, manual storage, maintenance reminders) plus adds warranty alerts, cost tracking, and full offline access — all starting free.

Centriq shut down its services in January 2025. The app is no longer available on the App Store, and existing users lost access to cloud-stored data. This is why FixLog uses local-first architecture — your data stays on your device even if the company disappears.
Since Centriq has shut down, direct import is not possible. However, FixLog makes it easy to re-add your appliances — use the camera scanner to capture model and serial numbers automatically, then attach warranty documents and receipts.
Yes. FixLog offers a free tier with up to 3 appliances per home. For unlimited appliances and homes, Pro costs $3.99/month, $29.99/year, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
FixLog stores all data locally on your device with iCloud sync across your Apple devices. Centriq stored everything on their cloud servers — and when they shut down, users lost access. With FixLog, your data is always yours.
