Can I add in my past mileage from before using Stride?

Yes! On iOS and Android you can add in previous or missed mileage!

For iPhone users:

To add your past mileage, you can use the "Add a trip manually" button in the menu of your app.

If you have a lot of previous miles to enter, and would like to enter the miles in one bulk amount--no problem! You can go to the menu and click "Import past mileage log." You can add in a bulk number of miles that you drove before using Stride.

UPDATE 3/17/20: For Android users unable to add their past mileage

The capability to add in past mileage mileage is currently not functioning for some users due to an error in the app. Our engineering team is currently hard at work on a solution and is planning to release a fix within the next week. Please follow up here for updates and be sure to upload the newest version of the app when it comes out. 

Thank you in advance for your patience.

For Android users:

To add your past mileage, you can use the "Forgot to record a trip?" button in the menu of your app. Unfortunately, the app doesn't yet have the ability to add in past mileage in bulk; you're currently only able to add in individual trips.

If adding in each trip would be too time-intensive, you have a few options:

1) Keep two mileage logs, one for your driving before Stride and one for afterwards. When you file your taxes in April, you'll simply add together the mileage totals that you've tracked from each part of the year!

2) Wait a few short months until we have a bulk mileage addition feature, which will allow you to add in your total number of miles in one go.

Just be sure you are only adding in mileage and expenses for which you have proper documentation, so that you can back up the deductions!

Note for all users:

If you have incomplete records or forgot to keep track of your miles throughout the year, have a look at this article for more information on properly adding past mileage. -> What to do if you didn't track your mileage
