Delivering work-related apps that enable employees in the field to be more efficient has become mission critical. Telogis has announced its Logbook app, which is said to increase the productivity of mobile workforces by electronically logging — via a quick swipe on the screen — whether kilometres driven were business-oriented or personal. The app has been optimised for iOS devices including iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch and is available from the App Store.

The app is an extension of the Telogis Mobile Enterprise Management (MEM) software platform and was developed specifically for commercial drivers, mobile sales representatives and supervisors who drive a vehicle for both personal and business use. Built from the ground-up and optimised to take advantage of iOS advanced security features like Touch ID, Logbook simplifies authentication, tracking and distance-travelled designation while meeting stringent tax regulations in specific European Union countries including the United Kingdom as well as in Australia.

Logbook empowers drivers and field reps to view their recorded kilometres and classify their completed trips by swiping one way or the other on their mobile devices. Full integration with vehicle telematics ensures accurate and complete distance-travelled records so organisations can confidently claim tax deductions and gain more insight into their professional fleets. Through the platform, supervisors can identify classified kilometres, assign unclassified trips to individual drivers and generate personal-versus-business kilometres-travelled summaries within detailed reports.

The Australian Taxation Office has approved Telogis Logbook for use with mobile devices.
