Mileage Tracker & Trip Log

At the end of the year your tax advisor asks for every business trip, and half the destinations are a guess. TaxDrive lets you enter each trip right after you park, so your driving log is complete when you need it.

TaxDrive is a manual mileage tracker and trip log: no GPS, no location tracking, no account. Each trip gets a date, start, destination, odometer readings and purpose. The app comes from Germany, and the PDF report lists distances in kilometers.

WHO IS IT FOR?
• Self-employed people and independent contractors who record business trips and client visits
• Anyone with a company car who has to keep business and private trips apart
• Field sales, trades and care services with many trips a day
• Households with several cars that want each trip in their car log book linked to the right plate

HOW IT WORKS
1. In Settings, tap “Add vehicle” and enter the license plate.
2. Tap “Add trip” and fill in date, start, destination, odometer at start and end, purpose and Business or Private.
3. Save. When you need the report, tap “Export PDF” to output all trips.

FEATURES
• Distance driven is calculated from the start and end odometer readings. Starts and destinations you typed before are suggested as you type.
• Trip type Business or Private with one tap, the reason goes into the purpose field.
• Several vehicles with license plate, make and model. Each trip belongs to exactly one of them.
• Checksum: every trip gets a shortened SHA-256 checksum of its data, shown on the entry and with each trip in the PDF.
• PDF report: all trips sorted by date, latest first, plus period, number of trips and kilometers for business, private and total. Trips are unlimited, also in the basic version.

GOOD TO KNOW
• No account needed. Your trips are stored on your device. If Android backup is turned on, your trips and vehicles are backed up to your Google account.
• Trips are entered by hand. The app does not track your location or record anything in the background.
• The basic version shows ads that are loaded over the internet.
• Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It unlocks PDF export and removes ads.
• Trips can be edited and deleted later. The app is not tailored to IRS requirements, and whether a tax office accepts your mileage log is up to that office.

FAQ
Is this a GPS mileage tracker?
No. It is a mileage tracker you fill in yourself: you type in each trip, nothing is recorded automatically.

Do I need internet?
Not for entering or exporting trips. In the basic version, a short notice appears instead of an ad when you are offline.

Can I export a spreadsheet?
No, the export is a PDF.

Note: TaxDrive is a record-keeping tool and does not replace tax or legal advice.
