What it works out for you
Four questions the driver app never answers.
And when there isn't enough driving behind an answer yet, it says so — instead of telling you Tuesday is your best day off the back of one Tuesday.
When should I be driving?
Your best-paying hours, learned from your own shifts — not from a forum post about someone else's city.
Then it tells you what tonight needs to earn — weighted to your week, so a Friday worth 3.3× your Tuesday is asked to carry more of it.

How it runs
You drive. It does the paperwork.
There is no end-of-night data entry. The only thing the app cannot work out for itself is what each platform paid you — so that is the only thing it asks for.
Step 01
Tap Start. Put the phone down.
The route, the distance, the stops and the time you sat waiting all record themselves. At the end you confirm the odometer — one number, already filled in, because that reading is what IRD actually asks for.
Tracking142.0 km
Step 02
The books write themselves.
Type in what the apps paid you and everything else follows: fuel costed at today's pump prices for your exact car, unpaid kilometres, idle time, the tax and GST to hold back, and your 90-day logbook — all current before you get home. Log a fill-up or a receipt and the estimates sharpen into your real figures, but nothing waits on them.

Optional
Statements are the audit, not the data entry.
Drop in an Uber, Bolt or DiDi PDF whenever it suits — monthly, or once a year. It reconciles trip by trip against what's already recorded, de-duplicates the overlap and shows you anything that doesn't line up. Never do it and your figures still stand.

What the phone saw
Eight hours out. Five hours earning.
Your driver app counts the time you were logged on. WorthMile counts what you were actually doing with it — and prices the difference.
4h 55
of an eight-hour Friday had someone in the car.
The rest is the job too — it just does not pay.
Carrying someone · 4h 55Driving empty · 1h 20Stopped, waiting · 1h 05Break & personal · 40m
Three of those four bands are the job too. Only one of them pays.
3h 05
of it earned nothing at all.
And the app can say what each part of it was.
Stopped, waiting
1h 05
Measured from your own route, not typed in.
Break

Out of your working hours, and out of your rate.
Personal km
12 km
The school run mid-shift. Paused, so it never reaches your logbook.
Stopped time is measured from your route; break comes out of your rate; paused kilometres never reach your logbook.
Tap pause for an errand and the kilometres stop counting as business — which is the same tap that keeps your logbook honest.

One of these tells you whether a Friday night is worth leaving the house for. The other is the one you have been using.
Every shift
keeps the map it drew.
Which is also the evidence behind the kilometres.
An IRD logbook is a claim about kilometres. This is the part that can back it up.
Stopped time and the route are measured while a shift runs. Break and personal kilometres come from tapping pause. A shift you enter by hand still counts — it just has no map behind it.
Money that moves on its own

It is also a deduction. Knowing the number is what turns it from a loss into a claim.
Import one monthly statement and this works itself out — then every month after.
