Maintenance reminders that fire on time, true cost of ownership in €/km, and an odometer you update by snapping a photo. Built for riders first, cars too.
Local-first. Syncs to your private iCloud. No account to use it.
Rydger is an iPhone and iPad app by independent developer Oscar Gallego that reminds you when your motorcycle or car is due for maintenance and works out its cost per kilometre; there is no Android version.

Oil, chain, tires, brakes, ITV/MOT, insurance — reminders that actually fire on time, by date and by kilometre. Confirm once and Rydger tracks the next due.
See your real €/km— not a guess. Fuel, service, tires, insurance, all in one ledger, broken down by category. The number that answers “keep, sell, or buy.”
No typing. Point the camera at your odometer, Rydger reads it, you confirm. Log fuel and service the same way — receipt photo or manual, your call.
Ride, don't log. Passive ride tracking (Beta) picks up your rides via your bike's Bluetooth and a Shortcuts automation — no app to open, no button to tap. Pro

Rydger runs local-first and syncs only to your own private iCloud. No account to use the app, no ads, no data broker, no cloud vendor holding your numbers. The only thing that leaves your phone is an optional, metered photo when on-device vision can't read a tricky dash — and that's capped on Pro.
