Comparison
KeySigned and Damage Control (Asset Protect Ltd), compared
Damage Control (Asset Protect Ltd) does vehicle logs, checklists and check-in and check-out reports for fleets, rental, garages and dealers, with a dashboard for teams. KeySigned, coming soon to the App Store, is for iPhone: you and your customer both sign, the record is sealed so any later change shows, and your customer can check it with the evidence pack, in an up-to-date browser.

Side by side
KeySigned isn't on the App Store yet: its column describes the app as it will launch. As at 7 November 2026, from the vendor's own App Store listing, Google Play listing or website, linked in each cell. Prices and features change, so check with the vendor. "Not described" means we didn't find it on the pages linked, not that the app can't do it. App Store and Google Play prices are as shown to UK buyers. We re-check these facts at least every 30 days; the next check is due by 7 December 2026.
Each row is worded as in our handover apps comparison, which has every row for every app.

Where KeySigned is different
Each point compares KeySigned with what the pages linked in the table described on 7 November 2026.
- Your customer checks it themselvesSend the evidence pack and your customer checks the record in their own up-to-date browser, at keysigned.app/verify. No account, and nothing is uploaded.
- Sealed with a key on your iPhoneOnce you've both signed, every photo, mark and reading is fingerprinted and sealed with a key held on your iPhone. Change one pixel or one mileage figure later and the seal breaks.
- Both of you sign, in personYou and your customer both sign on your iPhone. It locks only when both signatures are on the current version.
- No account or dashboard to runNo sign-in and no upload. Records stay on your iPhone until you choose to share or export them.
Where Damage Control (Asset Protect Ltd) may suit you better
- You want to pay per report or per vehicle. It's £1 a report, or £1 a vehicle a month (VAT basis not stated), with a 30-day free trial.
- You need iPad or Android. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Android. KeySigned is iPhone only.
- You run a team. It has a web dashboard for teams. With KeySigned, each person needs their own Solo subscription on their own Apple Account.
- You want your own checklists. Its checklists are customisable, and you can upload documents for each vehicle.
Moving to KeySigned
KeySigned isn't on the App Store yet. Once it is, start your next new job in KeySigned and keep your earlier records where they are. Finish any job that's already open in the app you started it in: a KeySigned return is made from its KeySigned collection record, on the iPhone that holds it.
From launch, new subscribers get a two-week free trial, then £14.99 a month or £119.99 a year, VAT included, until you cancel. To avoid a charge, cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.
Where KeySigned fits, and where it doesn't
- It isn't on the App Store yet. It's coming soon, for iPhone in the UK.
- It's iPhone only: an iPhone that supports ARKit, with iOS 17 or later.
- Each person who uses it, on their own Apple Account, needs their own Solo subscription. There are no staff sign-ins.
- You both need to be there. A record needs both signatures, so a key drop with nobody there isn't covered.
- Records stay on your iPhone and aren't backed up, until you export them.
- This version doesn't look up a car's registration details or MOT history, and it records photos, not video.
- The time comes from the phone's clock, and the seal isn't an identity check.
How it works
Demonstration record, shortened. The car and some screens are illustrations.
The walk-round
You and your customer walk round the car together. KeySigned guides you to eight photos, one from each angle, and checks each for focus, light and framing. You mark any existing damage on the photos of that car and add a close-up.
Two signatures
You sign, then hand the iPhone to your customer, who signs the same version of the record. Any change after signing needs fresh signatures from you both.
The seal
KeySigned seals the record with a key held on your iPhone. Any later change to a photo, mark or signature shows when the record is checked. Your customer gets the record page and the .zip evidence pack, and checks the .zip in an up-to-date browser at keysigned.app/verify. Records stay on your iPhone and aren't backed up, so export the ones you need.
Each opens the checker with a demonstration record. Nothing is uploaded.

- Your records
