To track component-based warranties:

1. Add a coverage phase and enter the component name (e.g., "Battery")

Stuffolio suggests common component names based on your product category. You can also enter custom component names.

3. For tiered warranties, you can set different deductibles per phase

AppleCare+ and Extended Plans

Stuffolio makes it easy to track AppleCare+ coverage for your Apple devices with automatic detection and specialized tracking features.

Automatic AppleCare+ Prompt

When you save a new Apple product (manufacturer contains "Apple"), Stuffolio automatically asks if you'd like to add AppleCare+ coverage. This prompt includes:

• Hints on where to find your AppleCare+ information:
  • Settings > General > About > Coverage on your iOS device
  • support.apple.com/mysupport (sign in with Apple ID)
  • Apple Support app
  • Original purchase email from Apple

If you tap Add AppleCare+ Details, Stuffolio automatically pre-fills the company name, sets the provider type, and detects your Apple product type from the product name.

AppleCare+ Badge

Products with AppleCare+ coverage display a distinctive blue Care+ badge:

• In your My Products list — quickly see which devices have AppleCare
• In the product detail header — immediately visible when viewing an item

The badge shows as blue when coverage is active, or gray when expired.
