GigMeter and the Case for Ghost Miles

gigmeter.net Observed source

Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A mileage tracker for Uber, DoorDash, and Instacart drivers that records entire shifts, calculates deductions, and exports tax-ready CSV logs.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

Drivers start and stop a shift rather than leaving location tracking active continuously. The page says the app keeps live mileage in the notification bar, filters GPS drift, survives a phone restart, and exports saved shifts as CSV. Release notes document support for miles or kilometres, five currencies, and mileage-rate calculations tied to the date driven; the iPhone build is described as still in progress.
