GigPocket 2.0.1

Most people stop tracking their gig work because it takes too long. GigPocket 2 is built so it doesn't: start a drive with Siri or from your car's screen, watch the miles add up on your Lock Screen, and log a shift in a few taps.

GigPocket keeps the money side of gig work in one place: what you earned on each platform, what you spent, the miles you drove, and an estimate of what to set aside for tax. Free to try for 5 days, then one purchase for life: no subscription, no account, no ads.

START A DRIVE WITHOUT OPENING THE APP
• Say "Start driving in GigPocket" to Siri.
• Or start one from the GigPocket widget in CarPlay, the Action button, Control Center or a Shortcuts automation for your car, after a one-time setup the app shows you step by step.
• GigPocket measures the miles from your location, on your device, until you stop. Watch them on the Lock Screen and the CarPlay Dashboard, and tap Stop on the Lock Screen or in the widget, in CarPlay too.
• Check the trip before it is saved, or type odometer readings instead.

LOG IT IN A FEW TAPS
• Income with its platform, hours and a note. Type the business miles of the shift and the trip is logged with the same save. Commuting miles don't count.
• Expenses by category, with receipts from the camera, your photo library or a PDF file.
• Repeat a recent entry instead of typing it again.
• Comes ready for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Uber Eats, Instacart, Amazon Flex and Grubhub, and you can add any platform or freelance work of your own.

SEE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY MADE
• Net profit for this month so far, compared with the same days of last month.
• Activity by week, month, year or all time, filtered by platform and category.
• Insights: projected income for the month, your best day of the week and your top platform.

MILEAGE AT THE IRS RATE OF EACH TRIP'S DATE
• Each trip uses the IRS standard mileage rate in force on its date, or a custom rate you set.
• The estimated deduction for any week, month, year or platform.
• A trip that lacks a purpose or a destination says so, so your mileage log can have the date, miles, destination and purpose of each trip.
• Optional: enter the total miles you drove in a year, and the business use of your vehicle comes from your business miles divided by that total.

TAX ESTIMATES TO HELP YOU PLAN
• Tax reserve: the share of your estimated net profit you choose to set aside. 25% is a common rule of thumb.
• The standard mileage rate and your actual vehicle expenses, side by side, and which is larger. Actual expenses are what you logged; they leave out depreciation of a car you own. The IRS limits when each method can be used: for a car you own, standard mileage is allowed only if you used it in the car's first year in your business, and a leased car keeps one method for the whole lease. Each car uses one method for the whole year. You can set the method in Settings.
• Business parking fees and tolls count with either method.
• The next federal due date for estimated tax.
These are estimates to help you plan, not tax advice.

TAX REPORTS
Organized to help you fill in Schedule C, for a year, a quarter or the year to date:
• Mileage log (PDF): the date, miles, destination and purpose of each trip.
• Income & expenses (PDF): every income and expense, with an estimate of net profit.
• Transactions and mileage as CSV files, for a spreadsheet or your accountant.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
• No account and no sign-in. GigPocket has no servers and makes no network connections of its own.
• Your location is used only while a drive you started runs, on your device, and never leaves it; only the trip you save is kept.
• Automatic backup to your own iCloud Drive, if you turn it on. Restore any backup from the list, version 1's too.
• Export a backup file and your receipts.

For rideshare drivers, delivery couriers, shoppers and anyone with 1099 income who drives for business. A new design for iPhone and iPad, in light and dark mode.
