IRS tax deduction rates are 54 cents/mile for 2016! Take advantage of these rates by keeping track of the miles you drive for your businesses, for charities, or for personal medical reasons. With MileBug, it’s never been easier to make a trip log!
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life
Cellular data plan or WiFi required for proper use of GPS
Everything works great until you try to run a report. It then says you have not just put the trip info into the app that you in fact just typed and saved. It won’t generate a preview or an email report—which was the entire reason I got the stupid thing!
This app makes tax time so much easier! An it's perfect for us cheapskates, since you get all the features, just a bit of inconvenience (10 trip limit) to trade for it.
It seems like the app was updated in March. But they have a warning from October last year (on their website ) that there's a bug that is corrupting data. Nothing is mentioned after that so it scares me to use any version of their apps
I've found this app to be very helpful with maintaining recording on my mile in my real estate career.
This app saves me hundreds of dollars in expenses at the end of the year. It's so simple to use. My accountant literally praises me for the simplicity of my expense reports.
I use this free app nearly every day. It's quick and easy to use.
