Common questions
Can I see my whole log before paying?
Yes. TimelineMileage shows every trip and every total of the year for free; you pay $49 only to download the files. Time-mile shows all trips for free too, with the export limited to a preview of the first 10 rows.
Do I need a subscription for the current year?
Not with TimelineMileage: the $49 for a tax year covers the whole year, and you can re-export your Timeline in January and download the complete log at no extra cost. Time-mile prices the current year as a subscription, $8.99 a month or $69 a year.
Can both combine an old Takeout archive with a phone export?
Yes. Both merge several exports, such as an old Google Takeout archive and a recent phone export, into one history.
