## Ways to pay less

- **Free iBeacon with a yearly plan** (Other savings): Paid plans bought on the web with yearly billing include a free iBeacon, which the page values at $40. Source: https://www.driversnote.com/pricing

## Key features

- **Automatic trip tracking:** Trips are logged in the background on the phone, or started by an iBeacon, a Bluetooth device the vendor sells and gives free with a yearly plan.
- **One-tap classification:** Each trip can be sorted as business, personal, medical or charity, with notes and tags, and saved locations to speed it up.
- **Reports and exports:** Exports reports and trip data for tax records or reimbursement, with local and custom rates.
- **Team collection and approval:** On team plans, drivers' mileage is collected in one place and admins review and approve reports in web tools.
- **Edit log and odometer records:** Paid plans show every change made to a trip in an edit log, and can keep manual or trip-based odometer logs.

## Good for

- Self-employed drivers claiming mileage deductions
- Small teams reimbursing employees for business miles
- People who drive a few times a week and fit within 15 reported trips

## Worth knowing

- The Free plan limits reporting to 15 trips a month; unlimited trips need Pro.
- Team plans cover 2 to 10 users at $11 per license a month; 11 or more users go through sales.
- The page does not say whether the Teams $11 price is per month billed monthly or annually.
- The pricing page is in US dollars here but the vendor sells in many countries, so local prices may differ.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. Driversnote tracks trips automatically on iOS, Android and web and has a free plan. Free stops at 15 trips a month, Pro is $11 a month, and it logs mileage only.

- **Value for money: C.** Pro is $11 a month ($132 billed yearly), between the $8.99 cheaper-quarter and $12 middle prices for expense tools. Nothing stands out either way.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free covers automatic tracking and reporting for up to 15 trips a month, a cap a regular driver reaches inside a few days.
- **Features: C.** Automatic tracking, one-tap classification, reports and exports, team approval and odometer records. It does the mileage job fully, but it is a smaller job than expenses.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. Trips arrive automatically, but you still classify them and check the log before reporting.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iOS and Android, with an iBeacon accessory. No desktop app and no integrations named.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Driversnote you could make: expense tracking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $132 a year.

- You could make: Expense tracking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
