How this automation works

Keep track of your car’s maintenance automatically by logging events in your Day One journal. This Applet runs when Bouncie detects that your vehicle’s check engine light turns on and creates a new journal entry with the details. It’s perfect for staying on top of vehicle health and recording service needs within Day One.
