It's essential to note that the QuickBooks (QB) app needs to run in the background, Cashano. Doing so enables the platform to accurately track mileage for real-time trip logging of your driving activities. Let me provide you with some tips that can help you save your device's battery life.

There are a few ways to help you save battery life and avoid overheating while using the mileage tracking feature in the QB app.

Below are some common ways to preserve battery life when monitoring your mileage in the app, achievable by adjusting your device's settings.
