Quick fixes for common problems.
I can't install the app
- Make sure you're using an iPhone with iOS 16 or newer.
- Open the HVAC Tech Companion App Store page on your iPhone.
- Tap Get and confirm the download with Face ID, Touch ID, or your Apple ID password.
- If installation still fails, restart your iPhone and check that you have available storage.
The nameplate decoder gives odd results
- Wipe the plate and retake the photo straight-on with the plate filling the frame.
- Avoid glare — shade the plate with your hand or body if it's in direct sun.
- Check the confidence rating; low confidence means retake the shot.
- Still wrong? Email us the photo — real-world plates are how we improve it.
The voice assistant isn't responding
- Check that the app has microphone permission: Settings → HVAC Tech Companion → Microphone.
- AI features need an internet connection — the offline tools work without one, but the assistant doesn't.
- If you ran out of free AI uses this month, the counter resets on the 1st (or go Pro for unlimited).
The app is acting up or froze
- Swipe up and close the app fully, then reopen it.
- Check the App Store for an update — most fixes ship in the latest version.
- If it keeps happening, email us with your iPhone model and what you were doing when it broke.
