Earnly: Gig Driver Mileage

Earnly Driver is the simplest way for gig and delivery drivers to measure hourly earnings using logged pay, time and estimated fuel costs.

Tap Start Shift when your block begins. Earnly tracks your time, route and miles in the background, including while your phone is locked. Tap End Shift when you're done to review your duration, miles and estimated mileage deduction, then enter your pay. History includes an hourly earnings summary based on logged pay and estimated fuel costs.

That's it. No accounts. No logins. No backend of our own. Your data lives on your iPhone.

WORKS WITH YOUR PLATFORMS

Amazon Flex, Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart, Spark Driver, and GrubHub. Enable the ones you drive for. Stacked two apps on one drive? Log both — Earnly counts the miles once and adds up the pay.

WHY DRIVERS USE EARNLY

• See your real $/hour — not what the offer promised, but what you actually earned after the time it took
• Automatic mileage tracking once you tap Start — GPS runs in the background so you can focus on driving
• "Is this offer worth it?" — a quick calculator that tells you if a block is worth accepting
• Live Activity on your Lock Screen shows your active shift at a glance
• Self-employment tax estimate — see what to set aside so April isn't a surprise
• Tax-year PDF summary and CSV export — every shift, mile, and dollar, ready for your tax preparer
• Expense tracking — log gas, repairs, insurance and more, and compare the standard-mileage and actual-expense deduction methods
• ROI by month or all-time — compare hourly earnings based on logged pay and estimated fuel costs
• Station reminders — get a nudge when you arrive at a delivery warehouse
• Auto-track personal miles (optional, off by default) — keep a record of your non-work drives, fully separate from work
• Hands-free with Siri, plus a Home Screen widget
• Edit any shift after the fact, with an audit trail of what changed

PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY

We built Earnly Driver around one principle: your earnings data is yours. Period.

• No accounts. No sign-in. No email required.
• No developer-operated backend for your trip or earnings records.
• No analytics SDKs, advertising or advertising trackers.
• Work routes are recorded during active shifts. If you enable automatic personal-mile tracking, personal trips can also be recorded outside shifts.
• Saved-station reminders use background location to detect arrivals, including when no shift is active.
• Your trip, earnings and expense records are stored locally on your iPhone.
• Maps use Apple services. Optional address lookup, off by default, sends trip endpoint coordinates to Apple to retrieve street names. You can also choose to export and share reports.

WHO IT'S FOR
