Does the app renew insurance?

No. It stores your copies and reminds you about the dates you enter.

Is the RC image legally valid as proof?

No. Personal copies stored here are references only. Official digital documents come from government portals.

Can I attach multiple insurance policies?

Yes. Attach current and previous policies to the same vehicle for reference.

How early should I set a renewal reminder?

Many people set it 2–4 weeks before expiry. Pick what suits your routine.

What if the policy is in someone else's name?

You can still keep the copy under the vehicle it belongs to and note the policyholder.

Will reminders always arrive?

Reminder delivery depends on your device settings. Verify critical dates directly with the insurer.

Scenario

When would you use this?

A traffic check requests the RC and insurance. The originals are in the vehicle, but the digital copies are missing at the exact moment they are needed. This use case keeps clean personal copies of both, per vehicle, plus a reminder before renewal.

Common challenges

What usually goes wrong

Insurance renewals missed and premiums lapsed.

RC images poor quality or unclear.

Difficult to compare current vs previous policy quickly.

No reminder ahead of key dates.
