Features

Everything a driver needs for an honest mileage claim

The basics are free. Pro adds the reports, extra vehicles and the running-cost tools. Some Pro features arrive a little after launch, and they are marked.

Drives are spotted for you Free

BroomBroom uses your phone's location and movement sensors to notice when you start and stop driving. Each drive is saved with the time, the start and end places and the distance.

No tracker is perfect. If a drive is missed or split in two, you can add it by hand or join two drives together.

Swipe to sort Free

Swipe right for business and left for personal. Add a note when you want to remember why you went. Add a drive by hand if you forgot your phone.

Save the places you visit often, such as home, the office or a regular client, and set a rule like "home to office is always business". New drives then sort themselves.

HMRC maths done properly Free

  • Approved mileage rates for cars and vans, motorbikes and bicycles
  • The 10,000 mile threshold, counted across the tax year
  • A drive that crosses the threshold is split and claimed at both rates
  • Tax year from 6 April to 5 April, in UK time
  • Rates change on their own date, so older drives keep the rate that applied then
  • Set whether you are an employee or self-employed, so reports use the right wording
  • Optional passenger payment of 5p a mile for employees

Your employer pays a different rate? You can set your own. See how the claim is worked out.

Reports for your accountant Pro

Choose a date range and get a clear list of drives, with dates, places, miles, purpose, notes and the amount claimed, plus a total. Download it as a spreadsheet (CSV) or a PDF, or email it straight from the app.

ReportsScreenshot coming soon

More than one vehicle Pro

Add each car, van, motorbike or bike with its name, registration (optional) and fuel type. Each drive is linked to a vehicle, and Free keeps one vehicle if that is all you need.

VehiclesScreenshot coming soon

Fuel, charging and odometer log Pro

Log fuel or charging as you go, with the odometer reading and a photo of the receipt if you like. BroomBroom works out your miles per gallon or per kWh and what each mile really costs, and sets that against the HMRC amount.

Odometer readings at the start and end of the tax year also show your business share of all your driving.

Fuel logScreenshot coming soon

Works without a signal Free

Drives are saved on your phone first and sent when you are back online, so a drive through a dead zone is not lost.
