### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-07-30, version 20.1*

Had this app since 2015 and it’s brilliant.  I’ve now changed to an electric vehicle so would love an option in the app to fuel with kWh instead of litres, plus an option of kWh rate used to charge and cost per kWh.

### 5/5 — Faultless.  Excellent.

*2026-07-12, version 20.1*

I have used the paid version since 2010.  If you log all expenses you can spot issues requiring maintenance.  MPG consistently down 10-15 percent? Better look into it.  Developer is quick to answer the few questions I’ve had.   Use is intuitive.   Data can be exported and backed up.  Absolutely deserves your purchase.

### 5/5 — All I was looking for in a gas mileage tracking app

*2026-07-07, version 20.1*

I first started using this to track gas mileage. But since have transitioned my maintenance and repair logs entirely to this app for multiple cars. Everything you need in an intuitive UI. Been using this app for years now and wish I had discovered it sooner. Now if I could only find something similar to track house maintenance :) - get in touch if you’re interested in collaborating on one ;)

### 5/5 — Perfect car expense app

*2026-07-01, version 20.1*

Just spend a few minutes adding fuel or service records on this app and you can tell they’ve obsessed over getting the insert screens to match how people actually use them.  I’ve tried so many apps in this category to record expenses for my classic cars and this is the first one that just gets it.  Everything field is exactly where it needs to be, every option is there exactly when you need it.  Really impressed with how well they’ve nailed the user experience.  This app is than worth the price.

### 5/5 — One of the Best Apps I use.

*2026-06-25, version 20.1*

Road Trip is the perfect App to track your vehicle running expenses. I have been logging everything on it for over 4 years and it never misses a beat. The ability to back up and share via the cloud work flawlessly. I really can’t think of any way it could be improved. 10/10 👏👏

### 5/5 — Geniale App

*2026-06-07, version 20.0*

Ich war ganz überrascht von dem neuen Aussehen. Gefällt mir.  Leider zieht sich das neue Aussehen nicht konsequent durch die App. 
Was perfekt wäre man könnte die Farben selber auswählen. 

Darüber hinaus finde ich sehr sehr gut das an der Funktionalität nichts verändert wurde! Sie läuft perfekt 🤩🤩

### 5/5 — Idealne

*2026-06-04, version 20.0*

Korzystam od lat, używam dla kilku pojazdów (samochód, motocykl) i jest idealna dla bardzo dokładnych statystyk związanych z kosztami ich użytkowania. Działa bez zarzutu.

### 5/5 — Greatness

*2026-06-01, version 20.0*

This app is fantastic. I’ve used it for years (and I’m not sure how many off hand). I tried several when I was looking, and this didn’t disappoint. It’s one that feels so useful and precise that I recommend it to friends. And I appreciate the lack of nag screens for reviews and/or ads.

### 5/5 — Purchased in 2009

*2026-06-01, version 20.0*

I purchased Road Trip on January 14, 2009. It is my oldest purchased app still in use. This is the most useful app I have and has been on every iPhone and iPad I have ever owned.

### 4/5 — Missing feature

*2026-06-01, version 20.0*

Having uses for many years, I find it quite useful however I would recommend adding a Apple CarPlay addition so that users could enter fill-ups under cars entertainment system, instead of having to pull out their phone
