### 5/5 — Tracking made easy with stride!

*2026-08-19, version 26.5.0*

For past couple of years the Stride mileage tracker has been a valuable tool!

### 5/5 — Muy buena

*2026-08-14, version 26.5.0*

Es genial

### 2/5 — Mileage isn’t accurate.

*2026-08-11, version 26.5.0*

The mileage isn’t recorded accurately. Stop trying to sell me products and do the basics.

### 1/5 — Email report

*2026-08-10, version 26.5.0*

I like the app. However, it will not send the report to my email.

### 1/5 — SPAM Kings

*2026-08-08, version 26.5.0*

I have never wrote a review for an app, so this should tell you how bad this is. I only downloaded this app. Discovered an old app I used does more, better. So I deleted Stride. They have spammed my mailbox to no end! Iv done everything to make them stop and they email every single day! YOU’VE  BEEN WARNED!

### 4/5 — Useful but missing this

*2026-08-08, version 26.5.0*

Great app but no in app log of previous entries or to way correct an entry error. This is unfortunate because otherwise it seems to be a very helpful app.

### 4/5 — Good mileage tracker

*2026-08-07, version 26.5.0*

It is a very good mileage tracker but their recent change on the tax estimator makes that part literally garbage. It now assumes your tips are subject to 15.3% self employment taxes with no respect for schedule c deductions for expenses. We all know tips are still subject to self employment taxes but they don’t ignore expenses. Their estimator takes shortcuts that gives you an inaccurate view of your tax bill. Test it out, you can enter expenses that bring you to a loss and if there are tips it will still say you will owe taxes becasue of your tips which is not how that works. I will go to using a spreadsheet, stride was good because its free but I don’t need to be told I should save hundreds of dollars for a tax bill I won’t have because you are taking shortcuts to calculate it. That doesn’t help anyone. What I need is a realistic estimator that lets me know if I even need to file a quarterly payment which isn’t required before you expect to have a tax bill over 1000 for the year. All taxes are against net earnings not gross earnings so tips are reduced by expenses (which you are now calling deductions and ignoring them on the tips)

### 4/5 — Great App

*2026-08-07, version 26.5.0*

Perfect for tax tracking, except for a bug where miles disappear.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-08-07, version 26.5.0*

Update: now it’s logging the start of my trips, it’s showing my drive and everything as normal and then at some point it zeros everything out. I just spent over 3 hours of driving. I looked at my miles driven and it shows my time 3:47, my miles as 0, and Tax Deductions as 0.00 saved this trip. 

Update: I clicked on their insurance and it take me to Liberty Mutual and no when I click get a quote after entering my information this is what they respond to us “The Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance Company no longer offers Auto Insurance in California. However, we may be able to help you get quotes from other trusted brands”… there are no discounts in California using this app.

Org: It logged me out again, and I lost a whole day of driving. You can tell it’s made by California government. Look at our governor.

### 4/5 — Healthcare Consultant

*2026-08-06, version 26.5.0*

So far I found Stride helpful, able to keep track of mileage.
