Share / invite others to App#138

I like the App and went to share it wilth friends but couldn't find an easy way. Ended up sharing the Insta page. Most petrolheads are in WhatsApp groups so be good to have an easy share to that.

Add some history photos to main gallery#133

Some photos i add to the history i also want to be in the main gallery too. Would a tickbox (or equivalent) be possible to idicate whether you want it in both places to save uploading twice.

Add more flexible authentication system#128

It helps keeping accounts secure

Planned

FeatureAdd more authentication mechanisms. Currently Custodian supports a secure login system based around short term access tokens and longer term refresh tokens. However it is currently limited to email and password authentication. We'd like to add support for: 1. Social Auth 2. TOTP 2FA Support for Password Managers We do not plan to add support for SMS based auth as it is actually pretty insecure in comparison to TOTP support via password manager.

Changing categories#127

I can not find a way of changng a category eg from History to Admin without deletng the entry and starting over again. Maybe I have missed something obvious! If not, this would be a useful enhancement.

EnhancementThe current Custodian iOS app, which is integrated with UK's DVLA and DVSA, allows UK-based users to quickly populate their car information. However, we understand that many of our users are located outside the UK and are eager to have the same functionality. While our initial decision to limit the app's availability was made to prevent any disappointment from users expecting automatic car information population, we've heard your feedback. We're currently discussing plans to expand the app's reach to other countries. To help us make informed decisions about where to launch next, we'd appreciate your input. Please use this issue to: Indicate the country where you'd like us to make the Custodian iOS app available. If possible, provide information about any government APIs or services in your country that allow for the retrieval of car data using registration or local identification numbers. We will regularly update this issue with the list of countries under consideration, using your inputs to guide our international rollout strategy. Your participation in this request will help us better understand demand and prioritize accordingly. We're excited to bring the convenience of the Custodian app to more users around the world.

History file entry titles are too short#108
