In an earlier post, I listed a bunch of Android apps that could be useful for lawn mower repair and use. Apple doesn't have quite as much to offer in the way of iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch apps, but there are some. A few are listed below. Unlike Android apps, most Apple apps won't be free.
- My Automower (Free)
If you own or use a Husqvarna Automower, this app will allow you to control the robot mower from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch. You can start or stop the mower, see its status, or view its location using Google Maps. You can even check the slope of your lawn with this app.
- Gas & Oil ($0.99)
This app can come in handy for anyone with a 2-stroke engine. You can calculate gas and oil mixtures -- either by inputting the amount of gas and calculating the oil, or by inputting the amount of oil and calculating the gas. You can also save this information for your equipment (along with a photo) and even store maintenance history in the app. Could be well worth the 99 cents.
- Gas/Oil Mix Calculator (Free)
Like the app described above, this one also calculates gas and oil mixtures for 2-stroke engines. However, this one does not offer all of the storage capabilities of the previous app (but it is free).

Android apps for lawn mower repair
Below are some Android smart phone and tablet apps that can be useful to anyone who does their own lawn mower repair.
- Push Mower Diagnostics - Lite (Free)
Push Mower Diagnostics is an app that can help you troubleshoot and diagnose lawn mower problems. This is the free (lite) version -- if you like the app and want more detail and more information, you can purchase the full version for $1.29, which also includes links for looking up parts.
- Lawn Mower Forum (Free)
This app is a mobile version of LawnMowerForum.com. Members of the forum can log in and read or post messages, and non-members can register for the site through the app. This forum has sections for Small Engine & Mower Repair and Build-it Yourself, as well as specific threads for individual mower makes.
- Nuts & Bolts (Free)
This app won't be as useful on a regular basis, but it may come in handy when you need it. You can use the app to look up different screw and drill sizes, for both inches and metric.

For 2-stroke engines, this app can calculate the amount of gas and oil that you need to mix together for your engine. Works for both metric and U.S. measurements.
