Does the MTD job on my phone

The Self Assessment view maps to the boxes so January is calm now. The automatic mileage tracking has paid for the subscription many times over.

Pros

The Self Assessment view maps to the boxes so January is calm now.

Cons

No free tier, so Sage looks cheaper if you barely drive for work.

Good for the self employed

The Self Assessment view maps to the boxes so January is calm now. Only real gripe is that the AI features are labelled beta and feel like it.

Mileage tracking alone is worth it

It detects trips and I just swipe to say business or personal. That said, reporting is thin beyond income and expenses and no free tier, so Sage looks cheaper if you barely drive for work.

Pros

It detects trips and I just swipe to say business or personal.

Cons

Reporting is thin beyond income and expenses.
