What happened to MileIQ

MileIQ was acquired. Your wallet noticed.

MileIQ has been a reliable mileage tracker for years. But in 2025 it was acquired by Bending Spoons — the same company that owns Evernote and WeTransfer, both of which saw significant price increases after acquisition. MileIQ followed the same playbook.

In early 2026, MileIQ raised its subscription price from $5.99/month to $8.99/month — a 50% increase. Annual subscribers saw their cost jump from $78 to $108 per year. App Store reviews reflect widespread frustration, with users describing the change as a “bait-and-switch” after years of loyalty.

If you're looking for a mileage tracker that does the job well, without the corporate ownership risk, Mileo was built exactly for that.

Why people switch

Four reasons MileIQ users choose Mileo

1
The price is simply betterAt $29.99/year, Mileo costs less than a single month of MileIQ's new pricing. For freelancers, contractors, and gig workers already managing tight margins, that difference is real money.
2
It does more than mileageMileIQ tracks miles and that's it. Mileo adds receipt scanning and expense tracking in the same app — so your entire Schedule C is in one place, not split across multiple subscriptions.
3
No acquisition riskMileo is an indie app — built and maintained by one developer, not a private equity portfolio company. The pricing you see today isn't a teaser rate before the next hike.
4
