What they did
Can't remember which filter your fridge takes? This user took photos of all their appliances, water filters and model numbers and gave them to their Grok Bot. Now it sends a reminder when maintenance or a filter change is due. When something goes wrong, it explains how to fix it.
How it went
A home appliance register with reminders and step-by-step fixes.
Worth knowing
- One short Reddit comment. Turn off power and water before any repair, and leave gas appliances to a licensed technician.
Prompt

Here are photos of my appliances and their model plates: [photos]. Make a list with brand, model, serial number, filter or part numbers and the recommended maintenance schedule from each manual. Remind me [a week] before anything is due, with the part to buy and a link. When I tell you something's wrong, ask what it's doing and walk me through the fix, or tell me to call a pro.
