## FAQ

### What if I only want mileage and expense tracking?

TripLog allows administrators to turn off components that do not fit their business criteria, such as: mileage, expense, time and scheduling, and/or trucking. It can be customized at TripLog web dashboard -> Manage -> Settings -> Customization -> Turn on/off Features.

### What are the autostart options?

Auto start options are ways you can let the app automatically track vehicle mileage. We have several to choose from, such as: MagicTrip (most popular), TripLog Drive™ GPS device, TripLog Beacon, Plug-N-Go, Car Bluetooth, and more.

### Which is the difference between the TripLog Beacon vs. TripLog Drive™?

**TripLog Beacon:**

- Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy (BLE)  
- Assist mobile app with instant trip detection  
- Low battery usage

**TripLog Drive:**

- Advanced GPS chip: concurrent reception of up to 3 GPS satellite systems  
- Real-time & offline tracking modes: 4MB memory, holds up to 1 month of driving data  
- Near zero battery usage: offloads mobile phone GPS use  
- Trip classification button: push to classify with a 3-color LED button/indicator

### Does TripLog drain battery?

Battery usage can be increased than normal, however, to learn how to better preserve battery life, visit help center [GPS and Battery use](https://help.triplog.net/en/articles/2404295-gps-and-battery-use). Or use TripLog Drive, which completely offloads the phone battery use.

### How much data does TripLog use?

TripLog uses a very small amount of cellular data, typically less than 10 MB per month. For more information, visit help center [Data Usage.](https://help.triplog.net/en/articles/2414869-data-usage-and-data-sync)

### ‍ **How do I data sync? Is it automatic?**

Data syncs occur daily automatically, however, in order to do a manual data sync, go to: TripLog app -> Main Menu -> Your Plan -> Data Backup (on the top) -> Sync Data between Cloud and Device -> Merge Data (Recommended).
