The ATO app allows you to manage your tax and super affairs on the go – making tax simple & easy.
A myGov account linked to the ATO is required for a personalised tax and super experience.
With the ATO app, you can:
- follow your 2023-24 tax return from start to finish, including checking prefill information, tracking the progress of your return and its outcome
- view in real-time when lodgments and payments are due, and seamlessly action them via ATO Online
- set up streamlined and secure login using your device’s security features like face and fingerprint recognition
- view your tax accounts, with links to ATO Online to view transactions, create payment plans or pay
- see an overview of your super balance and accounts
- view your employment income and superannuation contributions required from your employers
- check your personal, business (sole traders only) and registered agent’s details
- access our most popular tools.
Our most popular tools include:
- myDeductions: record your work expenses as an employee or sole trader. Sole traders can also record income. At tax time you can easily upload your myDeductions records to your tax return or email a copy to your tax agent.
- Tax withheld calculator: calculate the amount of tax to withhold from salary and wage payments.
- ABN Lookup: search for an Australian business number (ABN).
- Business performance check: compare your business with similar businesses in your industry using the latest Small business benchmarks.
You can choose to allow the ATO app to send usage data to help improve the app. The data we collect doesn’t identify you and you can choose to turn this off at any time in your app’s setting.
GPS can be used to record trips in myDeductions. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
To record a trip in myDeductions using the GPS option, the app needs access to your device location.

Overall a very useful app especially for recording deductions so they’re all ready at tax time!
There are problems adding vehicle trips though. Adding a vehicle is fine but this version no longer gives the option of adding a trip - ATO website instructions only refer to an old version of the app.
Feedback
I use it every year and it
Very useful and clear about what I can claim and links to the updates of changes on what is claimable. Thanks
Unable to access account
I attempted to sign in to my account and was told that I needed to ring a number with my TFN handy. Attempted to ring that number twice and was told by the automated teller the number is unable to be reached at this time. All round ridiculous.
App always has an error logging in
Ah yes, fine me for not being able to collect my own money, wish the government could get better developers for these apps, I’m sure they could afford to!
Fts
Good app but hate taxes, and hate that if I don’t I get fined or sent to jail 👎
It’s better than not.
It’s okay. Makes life easier, but crashes and erases all data after every single update.
Could be better
On the Summary for MyDeductions, can you separate donations from expenses? It would then be easier to see total amounts for donations?
Forcing you to update OS to use the app, even if you can’t.
So I guess unlike major retailers and other app developers that still are able to allow older OS users to have an update or use the last usable version of the app with that OS, you are leaving people like us who can’t or don’t want to go through wasting more money on upgrading our working phones just because it is a fashionable thing, my elderly working parents now also unable to access their app or upgrade their phone due to the small storage apace it came with.
So at this point, will have to stop using phones with apps, back to old school computers and phones, webpages, and emails.
Was nice while it lasted seeing how our tax money is spent more on developing other countries and not paying attention to our people and their needs.
was app made by children?
can’t do anything on it won’t let you log in! made my ugly mf for sure
Summary
I’ve used for a few years and like inputting the data and photos. There is a glitch on the screen if you want to scroll through past expenses screen it stalls and blurs!! Please fix!!
