MileForge
Frequently Asked Questions
Does MileForge track my trips automatically?
Yes. Tap "Start Trip" in the app, use the Siri Shortcut, or long-press the MileForge icon on your Home Screen — MileForge uses GPS to record your route and distance until you stop the trip, even if your phone is locked.
Will my data sync across my devices?
Yes. Trips, vehicles, destinations, and expenses sync automatically through your own iCloud account, so your data stays up to date across every device you're signed into.
What happens if I delete the app?
Deleting MileForge removes it from your device, but your data remains safely stored in your private iCloud account. Reinstalling the app — on the same device or a new one — will bring everything back, as long as you're signed into the same iCloud account.
Is MileForge Pro a subscription?
No. MileForge Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks expense tracking, PDF exports, destination import/export, and the yearly tax summary — forever, with no recurring charges. It also includes Family Sharing, so your purchase can extend to your family group.
I already purchased Pro on another device. How do I restore it?
Open the Upgrade to Pro screen from Settings and tap "Restore Purchases." As long as you're signed into the same Apple ID, your purchase will be restored automatically.
How is the tax deduction estimated?
MileForge applies a per-mile rate to your Business, Medical, and Charity trips (Personal and Commute trips aren't deductible). Default rates follow the IRS standard mileage rate, and you can adjust them in Settings at any time.
