Choose MileIQ if
- You drive for many kinds of work and only need a mileage log.
- You want fully automatic detection of every drive.
Choose JoltMile if
- You drive for delivery or private hire apps in the UK.
- You want your earnings, costs and tax next to your miles, and your real hourly rate per shift.
- You do more than 40 drives a month: a busy delivery shift can be dozens of short drives, and JoltMile counts a shift as one entry however many drops it had.
Common questions
- Does MileIQ work in the UK?
- Yes, it offers a UK version. It is a general mileage logger, so it records the miles but not the earnings or tax side of gig work.
- Why does a free drive limit matter for delivery work?
- Every drive between drops can count as a drive. JoltMile records a shift as one entry, so a busy evening uses one of your free shifts rather than dozens of drives.
