Driving Diary

Every mile of care, logged in three steps

Caring for someone often means a lot of driving. LumaCare keeps a simple diary of every trip - how far, who drove, and why - works out the cost from your rate, and turns it into an expense whenever you need one.

Log

Add a drive in seconds

Tap the button and note the distance, who drove, and where you went. Pick the care recipients the trip was for - or none for a general errand. Your family's default rate fills in automatically.

  • Record distance, driver, and reason with the destination
  • Link a drive to one, several, or no care recipients
  • Per-kilometre rate prefills from your family default - override it any time

Track

See every trip and its running total

All your drives sit in one clear list, each showing the distance and the calculated cost. Filter by date range to total up a week, a month, or a single appointment series.

  • Cost is calculated for you - distance times your rate
  • Running totals for distance and cost across the period
  • Filter by date to match a claim or reporting period

Export

Send a drive to expenses

When a trip should be reimbursed, export it to your expenses with a single tap. LumaCare creates a transport expense for the calculated amount, ready to include in your expense reports.

  • One tap turns a drive into a categorised transport expense
  • The amount matches the calculated mileage cost
  • Already-exported drives are marked so nothing is claimed twice
