Your questions, answered

How does automatic mileage tracking work?

With the required permissions enabled, Klicksy detects drives in the background and records their routes and distances. Open the app when you have a moment to check the details and confirm what each trip was for.

Set up automatic tracking
Can Klicksy see my trips or location history?

Your trip history, routes and saved destinations stay on your device. Klicksy does not upload them to its own servers, and we cannot access them. Apple Maps may process map searches and route requests, and any backup or report you share goes to the destination you choose.

What can I do with the free version?

Record up to 50 automatic trips each calendar month, add trips manually, use one active vehicle, save frequent destinations, and export monthly CSV and PDF reports. Klicksy Pro adds unlimited automatic trips, multiple active vehicles, custom report dates, selectable report columns and automatic approval of matching trip purposes.

Does Klicksy help with CRA mileage records?

It helps you keep and export a driving history. You still need to review trip purposes, record actual odometer readings and keep expense receipts. Klicksy is not endorsed by the CRA and does not determine which expenses you can claim.

Can I track both business and personal trips?

Yes. Keep both in your history and assign a purpose to each trip. This gives you a fuller picture of vehicle use, while reports let you focus on business driving when needed.

Is Klicksy available on Android?

The first release is for iPhone. Android is a possible future release, but there is no confirmed launch date. We will update this website when there is news.

Why does Klicksy need location access?

Location lets Klicksy work out where a drive starts and ends and how far you travel. Background access lets it do that while the app is closed. Precise Location helps record the route accurately; Motion & Fitness helps distinguish driving from walking or cycling.

Understand the permissions
How do I add another vehicle?

Open Settings, choose Vehicles and tap the plus button. Your first active vehicle is included for free; additional active vehicles require Klicksy Pro. Give each vehicle its own details and check which vehicle is assigned to each trip.

Follow the vehicle setup guide
Can I save places I visit often?

Yes. Go to Settings → Frequent destinations → Add Destination. Name the place, choose its location, and optionally set a default purpose or vehicle. Klicksy can then suggest those details for matching drives.

Add a frequent destination
Can I correct a trip or add one I missed?

Yes. You can review and edit trip details, change the purpose or vehicle, and add a trip manually. Automatic tracking depends on your permissions, device settings and available storage, so it is worth checking your log regularly.

How do I send mileage records to my accountant?

In Reports, select a month and review any outstanding trips, then choose Export CSV or Export PDF. Save the file or share it yourself. Pro also lets you choose custom dates and report columns.

Export your mileage
Does Klicksy need an account?

No. There is no Klicksy account to create. Trips are saved on your device. Pro purchases and subscription management use your Apple Account.

Will location tracking use my battery?

Background location can use battery. The amount varies with your device, driving time and settings. Motion detection helps Klicksy recognise drives; we do not promise a fixed battery usage figure.

How long are my trips kept?

Choose one, two or three years in Settings. The default is two years, and older trips and routes are removed automatically. Save reports and backups before they expire if you need records for longer.

Keep a backup of your records
What happens if I delete the app or change phones?

Deleting Klicksy removes its local data. Create a full backup and save it outside the app before deleting it or moving to another device. After reinstalling, use Restore Backup to import the file. We cannot recover your trip history from a Klicksy server.

Back up and restore Klicksy
Is the CRA kilometre rate my self-employed tax deduction?

No. The prescribed per-kilometre rates concern employee vehicle allowances. Self-employed vehicle expense claims generally use the eligible business share of actual vehicle costs. An allowance estimate in the app is not your calculated tax saving.
