MileLog: Mileage Tracker for Canadian Gig Workers

MileLog is currently available for iPhone and iPad through the App Store. These tips are for drivers who track work trips with an iOS device.

Canadian gig workers drive a lot.

If you deliver food, shop for groceries, drive rideshare, or run errands for clients, your car is part of your work. That means your business kilometres matter.

MileLog helps Canadian gig workers track work driving and keep cleaner records.

Why business kilometres matter in Canada

In Canada, self-employed drivers usually need to show business use of a vehicle. That often means keeping records of total kilometres, business kilometres, trip purpose, and vehicle costs.

The CRA motor vehicle expenses guide is the best official starting point.

MileLog does not replace tax advice, but it helps you keep the driving records that make tax time easier.

What to track

A clean Canadian mileage log should include:

• date
• destination
• purpose of the trip
• kilometres driven
• business or personal category
• odometer details when needed

These records are much easier to keep during the year than to rebuild later.

How MileLog helps gig workers

MileLog helps drivers:

• track business kilometres automatically
• separate work trips from personal trips
• add notes for delivery or rideshare work
• keep a digital log
• export reports
• review driving history

This works for DoorDash, Uber Eats, Instacart, Uber, Lyft, Amazon Flex, and other gig work.

Better view of real profit

Gig app earnings do not show the full cost of driving. Fuel, maintenance, tires, insurance, and vehicle wear all affect profit.

When you track kilometres, you can see how much driving your work really needs. That helps you choose better shifts, zones, and platforms.

Complete guide focus

This is one of MileLog's main mileage guides. It gives deeper advice for this driver type and connects related platform pages into one clearer topic cluster.

Canadian records should focus on business kilometres

Canadian gig workers should think in kilometres and business-use percentage. The key is knowing total vehicle use and business vehicle use, then keeping trip details that explain the business driving.

This is why a year-round log matters. If you only estimate business kilometres at the end of the year, it is harder to support the number.

Useful Canadian trip details

For Canadian gig work, helpful notes include the destination, purpose, and platform or shift. Examples include "DoorDash delivery shift," "Instacart grocery delivery," "Uber rideshare pickup," or "Amazon Flex route."

Those notes make the log easier to review with an accountant and easier to connect to your business activity.
