About this app
What MileWay does
MileWay is the easiest way to track your tax-deductible miles. Rideshare driver, real estate agent, freelancer, contractor, small business owner — if you drive for work, every mile is worth $0.67 off your taxes (2024 IRS standard rate). On a 10,000-business-mile year, that's a $6,700 deduction. Most mileage apps are subscription traps that require sign-up and run a tracker in the background that drains your battery. MileWay is different: — One tap to start a trip. One tap to stop. GPS uses 'When In Use' permission only — no battery drain. — Classify each trip with one tap: Business, Medical, Charity, or Personal. Each category uses the correct IRS rate automatically. — Save your recurring routes (commute to client, daily route, etc.) and log them with one button next time. — Multiple vehicles, with separate odometer for each. — Tax-season export: clean PDF and CSV breakdown, ready for your accountant or Schedule C. — No account. No sign-up. No cloud. Your data lives on your phone. Built for the 80 million Americans who file Schedule C or otherwise deduct mileage. Buy once, deduct forever.

Why it exists
The problem
Anyone who deducts business mileage on their taxes is leaving money on the table because tracking is painful. Manual logs get forgotten; subscription apps cost $60-180/year and require always-on background tracking that hammers the battery and requires sign-up. People reconstruct mileage at tax time from memory and lo…
