The whole picture

Every cost, rolled into one clear figure.

Most people know their finance payment and roughly what they spend on fuel. The rest — insurance, tax, the MOT, a service, tyres, parking — arrives at different times and never lands in one place. MileMind gathers all of it and gives you the real monthly number.

  • This month and year-to-date totals
  • A clear breakdown by category
  • Projected figures kept separate from actual spend

Everything sorts into three buckets

Readable, no matter how much you log.

The car

Finance or lease payments, and any excess mileage on a lease.

Essentials

Fuel and charging, insurance, road tax, MOT, servicing.

Misc

Parking, cleaning, accessories — the little stuff that adds up.

Nothing slips

Never ambushed by a renewal again.

The MOT, insurance and road tax are some of the biggest costs of all — and the easiest to forget. MileMind nudges you well before each one is due, so a lapse never turns into a fine or a scramble.

  • MOT, insurance, road tax and service reminders
  • A nudge 30, 7 and 1 day before
  • Your own custom reminders too

Common questions

What counts as a car running cost?+
Running costs are everything a car costs beyond the purchase itself: fuel or charging, insurance, road tax, MOT, servicing and repairs, plus finance or lease payments and the small extras like parking and cleaning. MileMind tracks all of them in one place.
How do I work out my cost per mile?+
Add up your total annual running costs and divide by the miles you drive in a year. MileMind does this automatically as you log, so your cost-per-mile stays current without any maths.
Does MileMind work for electric cars?+
Yes. Record charging sessions with a home-versus-public split alongside or instead of fuel fill-ups, and see your real running cost whether you drive petrol, diesel, hybrid or EV.
Is MileMind free?+
Yes — MileMind is completely free to use. There's no subscription, no in-app purchases and no ads. Sign in is via Sign in with Apple.
