Automatic Mileage Tracking

Quick definition

Automatic mileage tracking records drives without requiring the driver to start and stop tracking each trip.

Full definition

Automatic mileage tracking uses an app or device to detect when a vehicle starts and stops moving and record the trip. Depending on the system, it may use GPS, phone motion sensors, Bluetooth connections, or a dedicated tracking device.

Recorded details often include the trip’s date, distance, starting point, and destination. Drivers can then review trips, classify them as business or personal, and add a business purpose.

Automatic tracking reduces manual entry and helps drivers keep more complete mileage records.
