Help and contact information for Mileglow. Last updated June 15, 2026.

Getting Started

On the Trips tab, tap the + button, enter the miles, pick a purpose, and Save. Add a From/To destination and a short business purpose to keep audit-ready records. Mileglow estimates the deduction using the IRS rate for that trip's year.

Search and Filter Trips

Use the search bar at the top of the Trips tab to find trips by client, notes, or route. Tap the filter icon (top right) to narrow by purpose, date range, or deductible-only. Quick picks — This Month, This Year, Last Year — set the date range in one tap. Swipe left on any trip to delete it.

By Client Report

Open the Report tab and tap By Client to see miles and estimated deduction grouped by the Client / Place field. Useful for billing mileage reimbursements or seeing which client drives the most deductible activity.

IRS Rates

By default each trip uses the official IRS standard mileage rate for its own year (2018–2026 are built in). In Settings you can browse the rate history or turn off "Auto IRS rate by trip year" to set custom rates that apply to every trip.

Annual Tax Summary

The Tax Year tab shows your calendar-year deduction total, a per-purpose breakdown, and — if you add each vehicle's Jan 1 and Dec 31 odometer in Settings — your business-use percentage.

Export

Use the share icon on the Report or Tax Year tab to create an IRS-ready PDF report or a CSV, then share or save it anywhere. Files are generated on device.

Multi-Vehicle and Quick Entry

Add vehicles in Settings to keep separate logs and odometer readings, then assign trips and filter reports by vehicle. Save trip templates and favorite places, or tap "Repeat last", to log a recurring drive in seconds.

Common Questions

Does the app require an account?
No. Mileglow works fully offline with no account and no sign-in.

Where is my data stored?
On your device. Records leave your phone only when you choose to export or share them.

Is there a subscription or in-app purchase?
No. Mileglow is a one-time purchase with no in-app purchases and no ads.

Does it track my location?
No. Mileglow does not use GPS or location services. Mileage is entered manually.

Can I search for a specific trip?
Yes. The search bar on the Trips tab searches client names, notes, and From/To route fields in real time. Combine it with the filter panel to narrow by purpose or date range.

How do I see miles per client?
On the Report tab, tap By Client. Each client or place is shown with their trip count, total miles, and estimated deduction broken down by purpose.

Is this tax advice?
No. Deduction figures are estimates of the standard-mileage deduction. Confirm specifics with the IRS or a qualified tax professional.
