Millions of people move around with their own cars every day, some for work, some for leisure, some out of necessity.
But very few people realize how much they consume, how much they spend and how much they pollute.
Taking responsibility for pollution also leads to economic savings and these days there is so much need.
A Mileage Tracker app can help you keep your car’s consumption and costs under control, also making you responsible for how much your vehicle can pollute and perhaps adopt more ecological behaviors.
Not only that, if you are a worker, an app of this kind allows you to keep track of trips, supplies and helps you fill in the documents for both corporate and ACI-based refunds.
How does an app do all this?
Thanks to the technologies that are inside every Smartphone, we are able to understand if we are walking, running or even driving.
With these technologies and a lot of innovation, we are able to understand not only if we are driving but also for how long, the direction and the path.
By combining this information and that of the vehicle we are travelling, we can discover the costs of each journey, consumption and ecological impact. But not only!
Why use Magica
Magica is the ultimate Mileage Tracker for iPhone.
Thanks to this app you will be able to know the details of each of your trips, the status of the car, manage consumption and much more.
The information of all these data is well stored inside your iPhone and no one can steal or spy on you. You can read more information in this article.
Using Magica is very simple. Once installed and open you can choose a standard configuration to start using the app right away and continue adding details later.
Alternatively, you can immediately enter the data of your car, choosing the make and model from those available, or enter the data manually if your car is not on the list.
Once the car has been configured, you will only have to choose how to track the journeys.
There are 3 methods:
- Automatically, regardless of the vehicle. You don’t have to do anything, just get in your car and drive.
However, this involves recording any journey, even when you are not in your car; - Automatically connected to your car’s Bluetooth Audio. This is the most classic method. Magica is able to recognize when you are in your car and automatically track each journey. It is the most magical and automatic method possible in the face of greater battery consumption if you do not charge the iPhone in the car;
- Automatically, connected to the car with Car Play. If you own a car with Car Play, you can set up Quick Commands and start tracking the journey every time you connect your iPhone to Car Play. It is the method that allows you to save the most on battery consumption.
Choosing this setting, you are ready. You just get in your car and travel.

Owning a car is a responsibility, there are many things to keep in mind such as the expiry of the insurance, that of the road tax, the coupon and even the MOT.

Magica has a special section for deadlines and car maintenance.
You can enter all commitments with every detail, the expected cost, the deadline and even when to be notified with a notification.
Statistics
With all this data, why not have detailed statistics?
How much do I consume in a month? How much to go to work? How many refuelings did you do and where?
Magica divides statistics into 2 types:
