HELPFUL PLACESBETA
Nearby vehicle help, only when it matters.
Helpful Places is an optional Revodo Pro beta that connects a vehicle’s Due now Health needs with a relevant nearby parts store, tyre centre or garage.
THE PROBLEM
Knowing what needs attention is only half the job
Vehicle Health can show that something needs attention, but finding appropriate help at the right moment still takes effort. Helpful Places uses a need already identified by Revodo to surface relevant nearby help at a convenient moment when you are near an appropriate point of interest.
HOW IT WORKS
A clearer path from information to trusted record.
Wait for a useful need
On iPhone, iPad and Android, Revodo can use opted-in background location to identify a relevant nearby place when the selected vehicle has something Due now. Checks remain need-led and controlled by the device permission you grant.
Match the right kind of place
Coordinates are rounded before Revodo sends them to Google Places with the relevant search category, helping identify a suitable parts store, tyre centre or garage.
Keep the record moving
After a nearby match, Revodo can offer a timely receipt follow-up, helping turn completed work into useful vehicle history.
WHO IT HELPS
Designed around real ownership.
Revodo Pro drivers who want timely, need-led help near a relevant retailer or garage, with location access enabled by them and available to revoke at any time.
PRIVACY & CONSENT
Access stays intentional.
Helpful Places is off until you opt in. When enabled, mobile background location checks are need-led and controlled by your device permission. Rounded coordinates and a search category are sent through Revodo to Google Places; your name, email, complete vehicle record, private documents and Klaus conversations are not required for the search. Turning the feature off stops future checks and clears the locally retained Helpful Places state.
