## What is RyeDC?

RyeDC is a mileage tracker and ATO vehicle logbook for anyone who uses their car for work. Switch automatic tracking on once and every drive in your car is recorded on its own, filed as business by default and ready to print as the logbook the ATO asks for, with your business-use percentage kept up to date for tax time. Whether you drive for Uber, DiDi or Ola, deliver, run a taxi, or take your own bookings, RyeDC keeps the records a driver has to keep. It is free, with no subscription.

AUTOMATIC MILEAGE TRACKING - the logbook that writes itself
• Drives are detected and logged without opening the app, with the phone in your pocket. No Start, no Stop.
• A drive in your car is filed as business by default. Move the personal ones with a swipe. RyeDC never files a drive as personal on your behalf.
• Match each car to its Bluetooth stereo and drives are recorded against the right vehicle.
• A sensitivity slider, from "Catch more drives" to "Fewer false starts", keeps other people's rides out of your log.
• Combine drives split by a short stop into one journey.
• Reminders to read the odometer.
• Prefer typing readings? Record shifts by hand, or use both together.

ATO VEHICLE LOGBOOK - what the ATO asks for, in one document
• The Vehicle logbook holds what the ATO asks for: the car's make, model, registration and engine capacity; the odometer at each end of the period and of every journey; each journey's date, distance, destination suburb and reason; and when each entry was made. In kilometres or miles, as you choose.
• Find your best twelve weeks: the 12-week logbook period with the highest business share, and the one most like your year.
• Business-use percentage measured against how far the odometer actually moved, so a drive the app missed never inflates your claim.
• A reason on every business journey, with a default you set once.
• Correct an entry freely for a week. After that, every change is listed in the logbook.
• Financial year, weekly, monthly or any dates you choose, as PDF and Excel for your accountant.
• As many cars as you like, each with its own logbook.

LIVE FARE METER - the price in real time
• See the fare during the trip, not at the end: distance, time and fare together, with the route on the map. The fare stays on the lock screen.
• Set up a rate card for each service you drive for (UberX, DiDi, Ola, or your own) and switch between them.
• Quote a trip before it starts, then use the quote as the agreed price.
• Earnings for every service by week, month or financial year, as PDF and Excel.
• Add surge, top-ups and tolls during a trip and tips afterwards. Trip details breaks the fare down line by line.
• Use it as a taxi meter for private bookings, at your own rates.

AROUND ME - places drivers share
A map of places other drivers have marked and rated: public toilets, surge locations and street food. Thumbs up or down on things like easy parking, female-friendly places and driver discounts, then tap for directions.

CLEANING REGISTER
Log a full clean or a sanitise against your car, with a high-touch-surface checklist, and export the register as PDF or Excel when a platform or regulator asks.

ALSO
• Kilometres or miles, any currency, and a financial year that starts on the date you choose.
• Dark mode.
• Sign in with email, Google or Apple. Your records back up to the cloud and sync across your devices.

FREE, AND PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Free to download and use. No subscription, no trial that runs out.
• Location is used to measure your driving, place you on the map and price a quote, nothing else. It is never sold, and it is never sent to an advertiser.
• Help improve the app, under Account, turns analytics and crash reporting off together.
• Ads can be personalised. Change this in iPhone Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking, or under Account › Ad privacy choices where the law requires a choice.

ATO vehicle logbook
• Every report now reads as a logbook, and a logbook period opens as the car's Vehicle logbook: make, model, registration and engine capacity; the odometer at the start and end of the period and of every journey; each journey's date, distance, destination suburb and reason; and when each entry was made. Always in kilometres.
• Best logbook period: each period's row now prints the figure its logbook prints, and the screen says what is still yours to check, and what the ATO asks when you have more than one car.
• A reason on every business journey, with a default you set once. Every shift can say where it ended.
• Correct an entry freely for a week. After that, the logbook lists every change.
• List private drives: switch it off and the logbook lists business journeys only, with the rest accounted for in one line.
• The weekly report now starts on Monday.

Mileage
• Business usage counts shifts and detected drives together, measured against how far the odometer moved.

Also
• Help is now a page in the app, with a contents list, and covers every screen.
• PDF and Excel columns are headed properly, and the report no longer prints 100.0% when some driving was private.
