QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Good to know.

Will it locate a missing tool?

No. It records checkouts; it does not track location.

Does the borrower need an account?

The first proposed edition is a local register managed by the tool owner.

Can I buy or download it today?

No. ToolTrail is a concept. There is no checkout, released installer or live app listing. You can send an enquiry about the proposed workflow.

What happens next?

Checkout workflow prototype → return checklist → Android beta. This sequence is a proposal, not a committed release schedule.
