PlanWithHome is a home management app designed for Australian households. If you used Centriq to organise appliance manuals, warranties, maintenance and home details, here is how PlanWithHome compares:

• Home inventory — record every item in your home with purchase dates, serial numbers, receipts and photos.
• Warranty tracking — log warranty periods, set expiry reminders and attach receipts for every appliance and product.
• Maintenance planning — create a seasonal maintenance schedule for your home with recurring reminders and service history logging.
• Appliance recall alerts — check your appliances against Australian recall data using brand, model and serial numbers.
• Renewal reminders — track insurance policies, subscriptions and other recurring renewals alongside your home records.
• Receipt and document storage — attach PDFs and photos to any record so everything is in one place.

PlanWithHome is not a direct replacement for Centriq. It was built independently with a focus on Australian households and privacy-first design. Here are some differences to consider:

• PlanWithHome does not currently offer a Centriq data import. You would need to add your items manually.
• PlanWithHome does not provide contractor recommendations, property listing values or real estate tools.
• PlanWithHome is free during beta. Pricing for the full version has not been announced.

If you have been using Centriq and are considering PlanWithHome, the best approach is to start fresh with the items that matter most. Add your major appliances first — fridge, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, oven, air conditioner. For each one, record the brand, model, serial number, purchase date and warranty period. Attach a photo of the serial plate and a copy of the receipt if you have it.

Once your appliances are in, add your electronics, furniture and other valuables. Then move on to insurance policies, utility accounts and subscription renewals. Because PlanWithHome connects records together, an appliance in your inventory automatically links to its warranty and any renewal reminders you set.

There is no right or wrong order. Add what makes sense for your household and build up the rest over time. Your data is private and you can export it whenever you need to.
