Everything you need to know about mileage deductions and how License to Deduct works.
If you are self-employed or a freelancer who files Schedule C, you can deduct business miles driven. This includes rideshare drivers, delivery drivers, real estate agents, photographers, consultants, and any independent contractor who uses their vehicle for work.
License to Deduct uses your phone's motion sensors and GPS to detect when you start and stop driving. Trips are recorded automatically in the background with minimal battery impact. You can also start trips manually if you prefer.
You choose how your data is stored. Local Privacy Shield keeps everything on your device. IRS Smart Sync uploads only the three fields the IRS requires (date, distance, purpose) — GPS coordinates never leave your phone. Full Cloud Sync backs up everything for cross-device access. You can switch tiers anytime.
Never. Valley Technologies Group, the maker of License to Deduct, will never sell, share, or monetize your location data or trip history with any third party. Your driving data exists to serve you — not advertisers.
