Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the mileage tracker? The QBSE app is tracking my dog walks as a drive...

Hi gmesheau,

Welcome to the Community. QuickBooks offers the tools and the resources you need in order to streamline your accounting with ease. I'll be happy to share more info so you can continue to use the Mileage tracking app with ease.

The reason why the app is tracking your dog walks is that your mobile phone is set to record any form of displacement from point A to B. The good thing is you can prevent the mileage from tracking by completely exiting out of the QuickBooks mobile app once you're done tracking your mileage. In case you'd like to manage the trips recorded until this point, I recommend checking out this article here as it shows you how to delete trips and edit them. You're more than welcome to ask other questions as you go through the article.

I'll be here in case you need further assistance. Otherwise, I wish you a great rest of the day.

The app will automatically open and track anytime I make a movement, walking or driving. This is not how it's supposed to work. It never did this previously and would only track when I was driving I would assume by my speed.

So you're saying the only option for me is to delete the tracked dog walk? Man, this app really sucks and requires way more babysitting than I thought. Maybe I'll just switch to MileIQ to track my mileage properly since this app can't do that.

I see. Just to confirm, are you using an Android or an iOS device?
