When installing IRS2Go, you may see a list of Android permissions that the app requests. To help you understand why we ask for certain permissions, we’ve provided a breakdown of the usage.


"Location – Uses the device’s location."
The app allows taxpayers to search for nearby Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) locations, which offer free tax help for taxpayers who qualify.

"Phone – Uses one or more of: phone, call log."
The app allows users to make phone calls to the IRS or VITA/TCE locations.

"Photos/Media/Files – Uses one or more of: files on the device, such as images, videos, or audio; the device’s external storage."
The Free Tax Help mapping feature uses these permissions to save map images and data to your phone's storage. This means that your phone won't need to download the same map data every time.

Ratings and reviews

I can't even believe this is the official app. Saying "pay by the app" which only includes a shortcut to the website is the most brain dead thing I've heard of since net neutrality. You'd think this would be solid for FORCING people to pay online now. Absolutely absurd.

Doesn't work properly. I put in my info and it says it's wrong. Then it tells me my daily limit is reached. Never had these issues with this app before in the years I've used it. It's been a week and I haven't been able to check my status once yet.

1/2026 stil POS. can't even check anymore. says info is wrong or daily limit reached when I hadn't even checked. Daily limit reached? Um what? You limit how many times I can check MY info? Just says my Info is wrong when I know it's not.
