UK product page
Written for UK claim intent
The UK page focuses on commute rules, AMAP context, and evidence retention in plain HMRC language.
Ordinary commuting stays separate
Business, commute, and private remain distinct before export so UK review decisions are visible earlier in the workflow.
HMRC-facing record structure
Exports retain the journey fields accountants and claim reviewers expect to see when checking mileage evidence.
Country-year context
The UK page and the UK guides both describe the product through HMRC language and UK-specific recordkeeping context.

FAQ
Common questions
How are trips classified?
MileTrack keeps business, commute, and private as separate trip types. Suggestions are based on saved places, repeated routes, your review history, and explicit overrides.
Are the reports accepted by the IRS / HMRC / local tax workflows?
Exports include the core fields tax workflows require: date, origin, destination, distance, purpose, vehicle context, and the country profile active at export time.
Where is my data stored?
Trip history, saved places, vehicles, and reports stay on-device by default. Optional iCloud backup can sync through your Apple account if you enable it. On iPhone, explicit address lookup, route preview, reverse geocoding, Look Around, and map viewing can contact Apple mapping services in real time, but MileTrack does not host trip history on its own servers in the current beta.
Does it back up anywhere?
On iOS, optional iCloud backup is available when you enable it. Exports or third-party connections send data only when you explicitly start that action.
What about battery impact?
Drive detection is designed for low battery impact by using motion signals before heavier location work. Battery behavior still depends on your phone, permissions, and vendor settings, so we recommend validating it over a normal week.
How do I get the app?
Download MileTrack free from the App Store on iPhone. MileTrack is currently free to use and asks for no account or card to start — install it, grant motion and location permissions, and the first trips are detected automatically. Android is not published yet; email us if you want to hear when it lands.
