Questions
Does it track me in the background?+
On iPhone it can continue while the app is in the background. On Android it tracks only while RepBud is open on screen, which is why the screen says to keep it there.
Does RepBud know where I am the rest of the time?+
No. Location is used for a trip you have started and stopped yourself. There is no passive tracking.
What rate is used?+
Your own per-mile or per-kilometre rate, set in the accounting workspace, so the figure matches what you actually claim.
Can I throw away a trip I started by mistake?+
Yes. The review step before saving has a discard option.
Where does the trip end up?+
In Revenue, against the company you chose, so it is part of the books rather than a note somewhere else.
RepBud is designed to assist, not replace, your professional judgement.
