Who sees what
Why Backmiles
Most mileage apps start counting the day you install them. Backmiles also finds the drives from before, then makes the next ones effortless.
Catch up
If Google Maps Timeline was on, your phone already knows where you drove. Export it once, and Backmiles rebuilds those drives so you can sort them and claim them.
Smart places
Every place you drive to learns from your swipes. The client's office is business; the grocery store is personal. The next drive there sorts itself, and tells you why.
Teams
Invite a partner, a spouse or your crew for $6 a month each. Everyone gets unlimited miles and the places the business has already learned.
App screens show demo data.
Pricing
Pro is $96 a year. At today's IRS rate of 76¢ a mile, that's covered by about 127 business miles.

Prices in US dollars. Pro is bought in the app and billed by Apple or Google, so your store may show local currency and tax. Cancel any time in your phone's subscription settings.
Privacy
A mileage log knows a lot about your days. We built Backmiles so it knows only what it needs, and shows only what it should.
Read the privacy policyThe export is read on your device. We keep the drives you choose to save, never the raw file.
Our analytics see taps and screens, with text and maps masked. Coordinates and addresses never go there.
Team owners see business drives. Personal drives are totals only, unless you decide to share.
Export everything or delete your account from the app, any time. We don't sell or rent your data.

They see your business drives in full. Personal drives show as totals only (when, how far), never where you went, unless you choose to share them. You see exactly what your employer can see.
Yes. The free plan logs every drive and includes your first 100 miles each month, with swipe sorting and reports. Drives past 100 miles are still recorded and kept; they unlock the moment you go Pro. No card needed to start.
Pro is billed by Apple or Google, so you cancel in your phone's subscription settings in a couple of taps. You keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for, and your drives stay yours.
Each drive records the date, miles, start and end, and the business purpose, which is what an IRS mileage log asks for. Reports come as PDF and CSV for you or your accountant. We're not tax advisers, so check your situation with a tax professional.
If Google Maps Timeline was on, your phone already kept a record of where you drove. You export that file from Google Maps (we show you how, step by step), and Backmiles reads it on your phone to rebuild the drives. The file is never uploaded. Free users see what we found and what it's worth; Pro saves and sorts them.
As far back as your Timeline file goes. Since Google moved Timeline onto phones in 2024, many phones keep about 90 days unless the setting was changed or you saved an older export. If you never had Timeline on, there's nothing to import, and you can still add drives by hand.
Yes, on iPhone and Android. On iPhone, past drives come from Google Maps Timeline if you used it. Apple's own Significant Locations can't be exported, so we can't import from it.
Backmiles uses your phone's motion sensors to notice when you start driving and only turns on GPS while you drive. Battery savers can pause it, so the app tells you if something is blocking detection and how to fix it.
Not directly yet. Keep the reports you exported from your old app for past years. For the drives your old app missed, the Google Timeline import can often fill the gaps.
No. We don't sell or rent your data, and location never goes to analytics or ad tools. You can export or delete everything from the app.
