App Comparison
MotoMind vs Braap
Braap: Dirt Bike Maintenance Tracker is one of the original hour-based dirt bike maintenance apps, and it still shows up in searches. Its last update was in 2016. Here is how it compares with MotoMind today, and what to know before you rely on it.
We make MotoMind, so weigh our take with that in mind. Competitor details come from each app's own public listing.

At A Glance
- Braap: free, hour-based, last updated 2016
- MotoMind: actively developed, Pro subscription
- Braap is not BraapTrax
- Set intervals from your manual in either app
The Short Answer
Braap is free, simple and did the core job early: enter hours, see what is due, keep a log and a pre-ride checklist. But the App Store shows no update since November 16, 2016. MotoMind is actively developed (version 1.1.1 on September 6, 2026) and adds GPS ride tracking, VIN setup, record import, calendar sync and PDF export, with a subscription for Pro features.

What Braap Does Well
Braap: Dirt Bike Maintenance Tracker by Hunter Whittle is free, with extra bikes sold as an in-app purchase according to its description. You keep the bike's hours up to date and Braap shows which tasks need doing, keeps a Bike Log of completed work, shows a pre-ride checklist, lets you edit tasks and add your own, and backs up to iCloud. Its last update was version 1.3 on November 16, 2016, and the listing says it requires iOS 9.2 or later. It had a 4.8 rating from 4 US ratings. Braap is not related to BraapTrax, a 2026 ride-tracking app.
Braap's design is a good one: keep hours current and let the app tell you what is due, with a pre-ride checklist for the jobs you do every time. Editable and custom tasks mean you can match your owner's manual. If it runs on your phone and you only need the basics, it costs nothing to try.
The Catch: Age
An app that has not been updated in nearly ten years may not behave well on current iOS versions, may not get bug fixes, and has no clear support path. Its listing points to braapmx.com for support. We have not tested Braap on a current iPhone, so we cannot say how it runs; check recent reviews and back up your data before you depend on it. Do not confuse it with BraapTrax, a separate ride-tracking app released in 2026.
What MotoMind Does Differently
MotoMind is an iPhone app that tracks each bike's maintenance by engine hours and by date. Every task shows as upcoming, due now or overdue. Push reminders go out for date-based tasks such as brake fluid or a yearly coolant change; hour-based tasks show their status in the app but do not send a push notification. The GPS ride tracker adds a saved ride's elapsed time to the bike's hours and its distance to the miles, and you can correct hours by hand. You can add a bike by typing, scanning or photographing the VIN, import old service records from photos or PDFs for review, sync service to Apple Calendar and export a PDF service history. The free version covers one bike with ride tracking, hour updates and fuel and mod logs. MotoMind Pro, at $1.99 a week, $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year in the US, unlocks multiple bikes, maintenance logging and schedules, record import, calendar sync and PDF export.
Who Should Choose Which
- Choose Braap if you want a free, no-frills hour tracker, it runs well on your device, and you are comfortable with an app that is not being updated.
- Choose MotoMind if you want an actively maintained app with GPS rides that add hours, VIN-based setup, imports of old records, calendar sync and a PDF history, and you are fine with a subscription for Pro features.
Whatever you pick, the app only works if the hours are right. Use an hour meter if your bike has one, update the app after every ride, and set intervals from your owner's manual rather than trusting any app's defaults. Our model maintenance schedules list the manual intervals for 30 popular bikes, and the free service due calculator shows what is due at your current hours.
