How we compared
Prices are the published individual or solo plans as of June 5, 2026, read from each app’s in-app purchase screen or pricing page, not from third-party estimates. Where an app sells the same plan at different prices in the App Store and on its website, we use the App Store price.
Features are checked against each company’s own documentation and app listing. When a feature is not publicly documented, we mark it with a dash rather than assume. We update this page when a price or feature changes.
Questions about mileage tracking and taxes
- What is the IRS standard mileage rate for 2026?
- 76 cents per mile for business driving from July 1, 2026 (IRB 2026-29), after 72.5 cents for January through June. The IRS made a rare mid-year increase because of higher fuel costs. Multiply your business miles by the rate for the date you drove to get your deduction.
- Which mileage tracker is the cheapest?
- TruMile, at $59.99 a year or $7.99 a month, is the lowest-priced paid plan in this comparison. Several competitors here cost more than double that per year.
- Do these apps have a free tier?
- Most do. TruMile and MileIQ each give 40 auto-detected trips a month for free, Everlance gives 30, and Driversnote gives 15. Hurdlr is unlimited but semi-automatic on the free plan. MileageWise has no free tier, only a 30-day trial.
- Can I deduct mileage if I am self-employed or a 1099 contractor?
- Yes. Business miles are deductible on Schedule C using the standard mileage rate. You need a contemporaneous log of your trips, which any app on this page creates for you automatically.
- What makes a mileage log IRS-compliant?
- It needs the date, miles driven, destination, and business purpose of each trip, recorded at or near the time you drive. Auto-tracking apps record the date, distance, and route for you, and you add the purpose.
- Is automatic GPS tracking accurate enough for taxes?
- Yes. GPS auto-detection plus an editable log meets IRS recordkeeping rules. You can review, classify, and correct every trip before you export your report.
