Backup & Restore in 6 Steps
Your data is irreplaceable. Back it up to your Google Drive automatically and restore anytime — on any device.
the app is closed. Keeps last 10 backups.
Backup covers six steps: open Backup and Restore, back up now, turn on automatic backups, view your backups, restore from one, and understand what gets included. This matters more for self-employed people than most app settings, because your mileage log is the evidence behind your largest deduction — and a log you cannot produce is a deduction you cannot defend.
Why Does Backing Up Matter for Your Deduction?
Gig workers build up months and years of trip history, revenue records, and expense logs — the evidence behind every deduction on the return. Losing that data means losing your tax deductions, your earnings history, and your ability to prove business mileage if audited. A reconstructed log is worth less than one that was running all along. TrakMiles Pro backs everything up to your personal Google Drive — automatically, in the background, on your schedule. Switch phones, reinstall the app, or just sleep better knowing every mile and every dollar is safe.
Your backups are stored privately in Google Drive's app data folder — invisible to other apps, accessible only by TrakMiles Pro, and automatically cleaned up if you ever uninstall. No third-party servers, no data sharing, no subscription — the same principle behind keeping your own records rather than trusting a platform dashboards for cloud storage. It's your Google Drive, your data, your control.

How do I back up my TrakMiles Pro data?
Open Backup and Restore and tap Back Up Now, which writes a backup to your Google Drive. You can also turn on automatic backups so it happens without you thinking about it.
Where are backups stored?
In your own Google Drive account, not on a third-party server. You control the storage and can see each backup listed in the app.
How do I restore my data on a new phone?
Install the app, sign in to the same Google account, open Backup and Restore, and pick the backup you want. Your trips, vehicles and financial records come back with it.
What gets backed up?
Your trips and mileage log, vehicles, financial records, time entries and settings — the whole working record, not just preferences.
Why does backing up matter for taxes?
Because your mileage log supports the largest deduction most drivers claim, and records have to be produceable. Losing a phone should not mean losing the evidence behind a five-figure deduction.
