A mileage tracker for rideshare and delivery drivers
For Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart, and other app-based drivers, mileage is usually the largest deduction by far. spentr records every business mile and keeps the small costs that add up.
Where records usually slip
Platform totals aren’t a log
The miles in your driver app often cover only time with a passenger or order, not the drive to the pickup or between deliveries.
Two apps, two summaries
Driving for more than one platform means piecing together miles and earnings from several places.
Small costs get lost
Tolls, parking, phone mounts, chargers, and water for passengers rarely make it to tax time.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own mileage log if Uber or Lyft gives me a summary?
Platform summaries often only include miles while you have a passenger or order. Miles driving to a pickup, between orders, or to restock can also be business miles, and your own log is what supports them.
What is the 2026 mileage rate for drivers?
72.5¢ per business mile from January 1 to June 30, 2026 and 76¢ from July 1. Our 2026 rate guide shows how to split the year.
Is spentr available on Android?
Not yet. spentr is on iPhone and the web today, and Android is coming soon.
