I haven’t ever really kept up with my mileage probably the real way I was suppose to but I logged it anyways, just in case! I became an independent contractor with a company that provided Everlance to keep up with the miles for me. Didn’t think I’d really remember to turn Everlance on to track my mileage until I found the automatic trip detection. I do sometimes get frustrated because it WILL track your every mile & you then have to classify the unclassified & it piles up at times, but that’s my own fault 😉 I have since become a premium membership holder & this app is amazing! I don’t really know a whole lot about keeping records when your an independent contractor, so to speak, but I’m really diggin this app because it does so much for you! I’m not one to trust just any “let it do it all for you”! I’ll give it a try & if something doesn’t feel right, I’m out & quick. Been burned to many times BUT I’m really loving the Everlance App. You just plug in your numbers & your set, ready & go 😉It’s really a user friendly app for sure! It remains to be unseen as of now but I will see how much I’m diggin it come tax time 😁

You are not able to manually start and stop a trip for recording your mileage using this app. When you leave your location on a business trip and the entire trip needs to be logged for business, this app will automatically end the trip and start a new one when you have stopped for 10 minutes or longer. So pitstop for fuel, restroom and food, oops sorry, new trip. In my case when using the “free app” for 30 trips, (NOT) one 8 hour trip and return home consumed the entire free 30 trip per month allotment. For example, once I arrived at my destination I went to the store a mile down the street from my hotel and that was one trip because I left my location. Because I stopped and was in the store 15 minutes, returned to my hotel, that was a trip. Do not think you will be able to use this app for free, they have designed it to automatically burn through your 30 free trips quickly so you will have to make a $60 - $96 purchase this app from them. This problem could be fixed with allowing to manually start and stop trips and override the automatic start stop feature which is hugely annoying. This app does not do a good job explaining this auto start / stop feature on purpose and for good reason, I would not have downloaded this for even the “free version” had this been disclosed.

I have used Everlance every day for 6 years and have been relatively happy with it. Today, however, I woke up and found the app completely changed to the point of being unrecognizable from the version I used the day before. I now have to log in every time I open app and have had to change password every time. It no longer automatically records trips and I cannot figure how to change it. My trips would automatically classify as business and then I could easily change each individual trip purpose by scrolling through trips, identifying by the map, and the swiping left to change to personal as needed. Nice and easy, but it now longer allows this . You now now have to go into each trip, click on map icon to identify it, click on change purpose, and then click again on the specific purpose I want it changed to. These are extra steps that add time. I used to go through a week’s worth’s of trips and change them as needed in about 30-40 seconds on my dash mounted iPhone. Not only does this take more time, but the app screen is so small now, I can’t read it from my dash mount and have to hold it close to make any adjustments, not a good idea while driving. The list goes on and on. Whoever is responsible for this disaster should be fired. They took a good app and rendered it useless. Look elsewhere.
