The pricing is absurd, and the trial is a joke. You get five free invoices, then they want $40/mo for Basic and $60/mo for Pro! No OEM info is included with that either. There are free invoicing apps that do the same thing this app does (payment portal, automated messages, etc.) but aren't necessarily tailored to automotive businesses. If it were $5/month for the base and $10/month for pro, I probably would have subscribed already.

Hello We actually offer labor guides integration and honestly the app does much more than just invoicing. Most of our clients consider us the best option in terms of price. Please write us at contact@ari.app so we can discuss this further

Essential for organizing your automotive work, enhancing your workflow and productivity, whether you're independent or part of a team. The customer support is exceptional and surpasses any other experience I've had with similar services. However, I have encountered a few minor technical issues with the Android app, such as the back-swipe shortcut not functioning properly and occasional inconsistencies with screen updates, scrolling, and zooming. The web browser-based app seems to work best.

Thank you very much for your feedback. Please Uninstall the app and then install again the latest version from the app store. Let us know if that's better

Been using for about 5 months. App works well to keep track of repairs and repair history. Parts inventory feature is nice. I do wish they would incorporate a labor time look up like Motorguide or Alldata. Not sure if there is an API available for you to use in ARI but that would be a HIGHLY sought after feature among many of your customers. I thought I saw it as a "coming soon" feature in the past but I haven't been able to find it in the app. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback. We are working out on a deal with Motor Data for the labor guides integration. We know this is a highly-requested feature, it's just very hard to get accurate data. As for the API, we have it in our plans for Q3. Thanks for your support
