## What is NorthOS Bookkeeping?

NorthOS Bookkeeping keeps Canadian sole proprietors and freelancers ready for tax time, right from your phone.

MILEAGE
Start a trip and NorthOS logs your business drive by GPS, then builds a CRA-ready mileage record. Pocket your phone mid-trip, or type a trip in manually.

RECEIPTS
Snap a photo of any receipt. NorthOS reads the merchant, amount, and tax, sorts it to the right expense category, and keeps it with your records.

INCOME & EXPENSES
Log income and expenses in seconds and see where you stand for the year.

GST THRESHOLD
NorthOS watches your revenue against the $30,000 small-supplier threshold so the registration deadline never sneaks up on you.

T2125 READY
Your numbers land on the right tax lines, so your T2125 is ready when you file.

NorthOS Bookkeeping works with your NorthOS account. Mileage tracking works without an account; create an account to scan receipts and sync across devices.

NORTHOS PRO SUBSCRIPTION
NorthOS Pro unlocks unlimited receipt scanning, the North AI assistant, invoicing, and job-site tracking.

### 5/5 — Best app for Uber and Lyft drivers logging mileage and expenses.

*2026-08-12*

As a new driver, figuring out my taxes and logging my expenses was a chore. This app made it easy. I snap my expenses and it creates the expense automatically. I could even email my expenses to a dedicated email and have it auto loaded. Amazing !!  The support is so amazing. Nick wrote personally to me when I had issues figuring my GST from Lyft statement. He updated the app to accommodate my situation was no easy thing. I appreciate that this team interested in the experience of their unique customers. Take my money any day. Thank you. 

One more thing. We already can email our expenses, how about I email my Lyft and uber statement and have these added automatically? My mileage is in there, income etc. and the format is pretty much repeating.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-09-03

Mileage: a trip you start keeps recording while your phone is in your pocket, with the status-bar location indicator on the whole time. If a trip runs long, NorthOS checks in with a notification, stops it after 12 hours for your review, and lets you correct the end time.

Onboarding now asks ride-share and delivery drivers what they drive, so the GST guidance matches CRA's from-the-first-fare rule instead of the $30,000 threshold.

Tax Settings gains the PST question, so it no longer has to wait for the web app.

Realtors: business types are named by the work you do, and "Brokerage & Desk Fees" is a category on the phone too.

Settings shows your connected bank.

Fixes: the keyboard no longer covers the field you are typing into on Tax Settings, the review queue and onboarding.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-24

Behind-the-scenes update — nothing changes in how NorthOS works on iPhone. This keeps future improvements flowing smoothly to everyone.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-02

- Every business profile can now log income on mobile
- Clearer receipt tax labels in BC, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Quebec (GST + PST / GST + QST)
- Fixed: some Save buttons on Android did nothing for free-tier accounts
- Fixed: onboarding could trap you in the setup wizard
- Fixed: a landlord living in their rental property could deduct the owner-occupied share

### 1.0.4 — 2026-07-27

• Multi-business accounts: tax exports and reports now always use the business you have open
• Onboarding now asks landlords whether their rentals are short-term (like Airbnb) so rent lands on the right tax lines
• Exports now show any known issues with your numbers before you file, on every export format
• Receipts in a foreign currency convert at the Bank of Canada daily rate
• Better crash detection and reliability reporting

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-24

• Multi-business accounts can now switch between their books right from the home screen
• Receipts now live in the Expenses tab, and North, your AI assistant, has its own tab
• Smoother sign-up and a cleaner first-time setup
• Fixes and refinements throughout
