Looking for a MileIQ alternative?
Mileage Tracker by Keepwright takes a different approach: you buy it once — no subscription — it works offline with no account, and it ships the right mileage rate for your country, not just the US.
In development for iOS and Android. It'll be announced on launch — see what it'll do.
How we compare
The honest, structural differences — the things that don't change release to release:
- Pay once vs subscribe — Mileage Tracker is a single purchase, yours to keep. MileIQ is a subscription. Over three years a subscription mileage tracker can cost £280+; we're one price.
- Private & offline vs account-based — we're built to work on your device with no account required, and we never sell your data. A built-in privacy dashboard shows you exactly what's stored and that nothing has left your phone.
- Global vs US-first — the official rate for the UK (HMRC), US (IRS), Canada (CRA), Australia (ATO) and more, kept current — not a US-first tool with other countries bolted on.
- You own your records — export everything to PDF or CSV any time. No lock-in. MTD-ready export for the self-employed.
On reliability — our honest position
Background tracking that quietly stops is the category's biggest complaint. MileIQ's own Help Centre advises users to open the app regularly to keep it tracking. We're designing the opposite: an engine built to keep going even when the app is closed, and to capture drives offline.
We'll only make a reliability claim once we've measured it. Mileage Tracker is in development and goes through a strict capture-acceptance test before launch — we'd rather under-promise and prove it than over-promise.
Thinking of switching?
Your data is yours — when we launch you'll be able to bring your records in and export them out, with no lock-in either way. Want to know when it's ready?
