Uber Eats tracks your online miles, but misses everything else — offline repositioning, multi-app driving, and trips for supplies or maintenance. TrakMiles captures every business mile with GPS. IRS-compliant logs, Schedule C reports, and maximize your full deduction. Free 14-day trial.
Does Uber Eats track your mileage? Only partially. Uber Eats reports your online miles — driven while a delivery is active — but not the miles spent waiting for offers, driving to restaurants, or repositioning between orders. Those are all deductible business miles it leaves out, and drivers who count only online miles routinely under-claim by 30–40%. A GPS mileage tracker captures every one for a complete IRS-compliant log.
Uber Eats records miles while the app is active, but misses 20-40% of your deductible driving — offline repositioning, multi-app miles, and supply runs. Their tax summary also isn't an IRS-compliant log.
Uber Eats only records miles while you're online in the app. Driving to a hotspot with the app off, repositioning between zones, or running to grab supplies — all invisible to Uber's tracker.
If you run Uber Eats alongside DoorDash, GrubHub, or Instacart, only the active app records miles. Switch apps mid-shift and those miles vanish. You need one tracker that runs across all platforms.
A driver doing 50 miles/day who relies on Uber's online miles could be missing 4,500+ miles per year. At 72.5¢–76¢/mile that's $3,263+ in deductions — gone forever because Uber's summary doesn't qualify as an IRS log.
TrakMiles tracks every mile automatically and gives you the IRS-compliant records you need to claim your full deduction.
Detects when you start driving and records every trip automatically — no buttons to press. Runs independently of Uber's app — captures every mile whether you're online, offline, or switching between delivery platforms.
Every trip is logged with the date, location, distance, and business purpose — exactly what the IRS requires. Generate a PDF mileage report instantly for tax time or an audit.
The Schedule C Helper maps your mileage and expenses directly to IRS line items and compares standard mileage vs actual expenses so you always claim the larger deduction.
Log your Uber Eats earnings, tips, and bonuses alongside deductible expenses like hot bags, phone mounts, phone bills, and car maintenance — everything in one app.
Calculates your self-employment tax payments with due dates so you're never caught off guard by a tax bill. Based on your real earnings data, not guesses.
At the 2026 IRS rate — 72.5¢ per mile through June, 76¢ from July — every mile you don't track is money you'll never get back.
