My attempts to access "Car Minder" app on my iPhone 8 has been rendered useless by the latest update. Is the any assistance available for this message I receive when trying to open the app? "Car minder needs to be updated - The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of iOS.

I've used this app for years and today at the gas station was just as disappointed as everyone else in this thread. I have years of records stored in there which I need.
I was able to access the raw data stored in SQL tables
The next step is to open that sqlite file on your computer. I used the free SQLiteBrowser software ( https://sqlitebrowser.org/ ) to open the file.
It helps to understand SQL and databases, however it's somewhat easy to decipher.
There are database tables and in these tables are rows of data.
table - car = list of your cars and their unique ID. You'll see that unique ID in the other tables
table - fillup = list of all your fill ups including date, gallon and price
table - record = list of service records. You need to match the data here with the "service" table
table - repair = list of repairs with description, date, and mileage
There are two other tables which you can ignore, sqlite_sequence and schema_info
It's worth noting the date fields are numbers. They are stored in the UNIX timestamp format. You can convert them (yes, one-by-one) using this online tool ( https://www.unixtimestamp.com/ )
AndyStai, I'm so close! I have downloaded Car Minder to a different device, connected to it via IMazing, but when I try to access the document folder for the Car Minder app it states, "Car Minder's document folder is not accessible." When I check the rights on that folder in the device, it's only readable. :(
Ok, got it! Took a bit of searching, but I was able to access the data from the backup. Thank you for your help.
I've been trying out Fuelly - it will take a white to determine whether it's just as good as CarMinder was. I only have three cars and don't put on the miles like I did before the pandemic.
I have been using an app called my car it is a paid app but it’s far superior to what we lost in the update
Car Minder app compatibility with iOS 14.5
