About this app

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 2022-23 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.

The ATO app can automatically 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 settings.

GPS can be used to record trips in myDeductions. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Typical Australian government: clunky, awkward and barely works. Most frustrating of its pain points for me is the disfunctional backup/restore function. Backing up to google drive seems to fail when almost complete, yet cannot restore from other locations. Tried renaming and relocating a backup to match the google drive backups location and it won't see it. Great job guys.

Was ok and useful but as of today won't load. Put all details in correctly and it just takes you back to the home screen to start it all again. I can get into my account only on a computer..... so this app is basically pointless

This app, much like the ATO, is rubbish. Do yourself a favour and use literally any other accounting app. This thing loses backups, won't back up from old backups. I've lost everything from the first half of this year. I can't put in travel expenses without having to reenter my car details every single time. Waste of time.
