Warranty Tracker
Remember when warranties expire on appliances and electronics.
Overview
The Warranty Tracker remembers when the warranties on your appliances, electronics, and big-ticket purchases expire so a failure within the coverage window does not slip past you. Most warranty claims are lost not because of fine print but because owners forget the coverage exists. A simple list with purchase dates and expiry dates turns a 90-day window or a 5-year extended plan into a watchful reminder.
Each entry stores the product name, purchase date, warranty length, expiry date, and optional notes for the receipt location or claim phone number. The list highlights items expiring soon so you have time to test a flaky device before the window closes, and quietly drops past-expiry items out of the active view.
How it works
Add an item by entering its name, the purchase date, and the warranty length in months or years; the expiry date is derived automatically. Drop the seller's name, claim contact, or receipt storage location into the notes so you have everything in one place when something goes wrong. Items approaching expiry are visually highlighted.
You can edit any entry to extend a warranty after registering for a free extended plan, or to fix a date after locating a receipt. The whole tracker sits in your browser's local storage and stays private.
Examples
- A refrigerator with a one-year manufacturer warranty and an attached three-year extended plan.
- A laptop with a two-year warranty and the support phone number in the notes.
- A washing machine with a five-year limited warranty on parts.
- A power tool with a 90-day window where you want to test it thoroughly before expiry.
FAQ
Does it store my receipts?
The tool focuses on structured text. Keep receipts in a cloud folder and reference them by file name in the notes.
Will it remind me before warranties expire?
It highlights items expiring soon when you open the page, but does not send notifications.
Can I track extended warranties separately?
Either log them as a new entry referencing the same product or extend the existing entry's expiry date when you buy the plan.
Is my list private?
Yes, entries are stored locally in your browser and never transmitted.
What if I lose the receipt?
Many manufacturers can verify purchase via serial number; record the serial in the notes field as a backup.
