-------------------------------------------------
[Maximize Your Tax Deduction]

Max automatically tracks and records your mileage in the background as you drive your car for business. Max users save an average of $9,000 per year for tax deduction purposes. The 2019 standard IRS mileage rate of 58 cents per mile driven for business, 14 cents for charity and 18 cents for medical mileage.

Easy to Use. Loaded with Features.
Two of the biggest mistakes manual paper log keepers make is not maintaining a contemporaneous mileage log and mixing their business miles with personal miles. Inaccurate record-keeping can result in rejected mileage deduction claims and IRS penalties.

Automatic Mileage Detection
Max creates an accurate, contemporaneous record of the miles you drive for work. Automatic drive detection means no stopping and starting the app. No need for manual paper logs.

Accurate Mileage Tracking
Features like Auto Address Detection and One Swipe Categorization give your tax-deductible mileage records the accurate details they need to pass IRS scrutiny.

A Custom Fit
No matter whether you're tracking miles for reimbursements or tax deductions, Max gives you the tools and flexibility to create mileage record details that reflect the miles you drive.

• Personalize each drive with vehicle names or any designation that fits your business
• Customize your own mileage rate, currency, and themes
• Use bulk editing to give groups of drives a single purpose
• Add drives, delete drives, re-classify drives, and more

Detailed Records of Every Trip
A mileage log is only as good as the reports it generates. Stored securely in the cloud, Max sends monthly  PDF/CSV mileage reports on your request. Need more specificity, use the web dashboard to generate custom reports.

Battery Consumption

Max consumes almost no power when stationary (as it quickly goes to "sleep"), and it will only minimally increase battery consumption when in transit. To achieve this minimal battery usage, Max uses a smartly constructed algorithm to detect drives rather than only using GPS (which requires more power) for location data.
 
-------------------------------------------------
[Maximize Your Driving Earnings]
 
Max provides real-time ridesharing insight in term of driver supply and rider requests in your region so that you can make a better-informed decision. With Max, you can stay ahead of your peers and earn on average 30% more each month. 
 
Heatmap - the pulse of the dynamic market
Use Max’s heatmap (driver heatmap, pax heatmap, and opportunity heatmap) to view the business areas and trending regions with higher odds to experience more ride demand and stay in the surging area before it happens. 
 
Smart Trip Planner - tell you where to go to earn more
Use "Where To Go" to plot the best tactic based on your driving goal of the day. With trending information in the next hours, you will be better prepared other than simply following the flow.
 
Community Intelligence
With Max, you can contribute to the driver community with the real-time information you feel valuable to your fellow drivers and benefits from their contribution as well. We believe a more united driver community can create necessary leverage to better fight against the algorithm platforms.

### 3/5 — Drive for Uber

*2023-06-16*

Sometimes when I’m just in traffic it finishes the ride.  Don’t understand why. Also, often the app says it can’t do something and then there is a fix button. I always have the GOS on etc. not impressed so far.

### 1/5 — Missing drives

*2021-11-04, version 1.7*

The app regularly misses drives and customer support doesn’t help. It is impossible to change between cars on the online dashboard. The company refuses to fix this.

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2021-04-22, version 1.7*

Have the SherpaShare app for years but wanted to switch to the max and have been unable to do so because of login issues 
and SherpaShare:max continues to say they’ll fix the issue but nothing happens. Just talk, no action....

### 4/5 — New user.

*2021-01-06, version 1.7*

I love that I can organize the types of trips I take. It’ll really help with filing taxes. I haven’t gotten into the nuts and bolts yet but so far it’s pretty good.

### 1/5 — Possible scam

*2020-10-05, version 1.7*

I have use this and unsubscribe through the app and yet I get charge 5.99 or whatever it was for sometime now and I already contact them and yet they say go to the app setting and unsubscribe did that and yet charge every month  havnt been solve yet just fortunately enough to see the transaction from my bank statments otherwise I wouldn’t know this happen every month so please developer look into your database and solve this problem otherwise beware of this app

### 5/5 — Alguien me puede explicar cómo funciona con Lyft si hay recargos en esta aplicación

*2020-03-04, version 1.7*

Alguien me puede explicar cómo funciona con Lyft  si hay recargos en esta aplicación

### 1/5 — Use TripLog Instead.

*2020-02-14, version 1.7*

Seriously. The app developers rarely update this app. They’re happy to take your money but give nothing in return. It’s also inaccurate. Tip to the Dev. When someone gives you advice or mentions a bug. Say thank you. It goes a long way. Also. You’re new to this mileage tracking space. You want more reviews? More downloads? Make the app cheaper.

### 1/5 — I want my money back

*2020-02-08, version 1.7*

The plan trip part won’t even load I wasted 8 dollars for it to just throw my gps off

### 1/5 — The most useless app

*2020-02-05, version 1.7*

It does not do what it advertises. Just a useless app

### 3/5 — Eh, not what I was looking for.

*2020-01-21, version 1.7*

I wanted an app that would track my miles for my driving job. This app wants to track ALL of my driving and then let me sort it out afterwards. So good interface and user friendly, except where I set it to run only while using app, but it only wants to work all the time. Real bummer on that.
