Teen Driving Log App Reviews

So, three stars… I like everything about this app except the fact that it does not automatically calculate distance and there is no map to show where we went during our lessons. I am having to use two separate apps. Not fun! The only reason I continue to use this app to log driving time is because I paid for it. If it were free I would’ve deleted it.

Colorado won't let you use the log. Must use the State issued form.

I like the time track and all but mileage log needs to be a thing

I was a little skeptical about the app, but it truly is an awesome app. The reason that I haven’t given it 5 stars is because I (for some reason) am not getting the emails with my sons driving log. We back it up ever so often to make sure we don’t loose the info, but when you try to email the info, it doesn’t. The app is honestly a 5 star app. This is my only concern for not giving it the last star.

Love this app!! Makes tracking driving hours super easy. Need to add the ability to track more than one teen driver. I have twins and it would be a 5 star app if I could use one app to track them both.

Doesn’t allow for multiple drivers, or multiple observers.

This app was awesome for us. I like the easy to use tabs, and being able to make notes of things for the kids to work on. We will definitely use this for the rest of the kids as they get older.

The app navigation is a little dated and clunky. It does a good job with the options in helping me the parent remember all the things I need to train my student driver on that I take for granted. I love the timer and notes sections, too. App needs to be updated to use latest versions of the Apple SDK. It would be great if I could sync across devices. The date feature request has been addressed in another post.

The app makes my logs super easy to complete and allows me to put in any kind of driving I completed in a certain session. The support for the app is amazing and super helpful. Everything is easy to log and I definitely recommend this app for logging your driving!

Works well. Having difficulty exporting data though

We have used this with both of our teenage drivers and love it. No book to loose, leave the log in the wrong car, etc. My husband and and I each have the app and compare notes. I also export an Excel copy of the app to our emails each week to have a backup copy of the data in case my phone is damaged or lost. I think the only improvement would be to be able to have an invite feature so we could both be logging in and saving and not just texting the hours to be input into one master log as we do now. Three years ago, the MVA (Maryland) accepted this if I exported a copy to Excel, printed, stapled it inside a driving log from the state and signed each page. Our other son is taking his test this weekend so I will update of the requirements are any different.

Great app

The app seems to log the individual trips properly but the summary does not add up properly. Every one of the trips we have logged is in 5 minute increments yet the total time somehow shows the total hours and 16 minutes. Doesn’t seem like it should be that hard to have that add up correctly before charging someone for an app.

Great program to keep track of driving hours. This makes it so easy to keep track of hours driven.

Let me start off by saying that I love this app! The way that you track your hours while driving is perfect because you can start the timer when you drive and end it when you’re done. And within the log of that drive you can put who you were driving with, what roads you were driving on, if there was weather, and what skills you worked on. It’s a great app over all and I’m very impressed that it is so detailed. 5/5 stars!

I like the fact that you can track so many driving details. And I was excited you send a log to yourself. Except, I just discovered after 10 days of tracking, it only sends you the number of hours and minutes your teen has driven! That does us zero good because Texas requires we log all the details of how he meets all the requirements. So now I have to transfer all my individual drive time details we tracked into the paper, which was exactly what I was trying to avoid by purchasing this app.

When I started using the app, I thought it was perfect until after several logged drives I found out that the state of Washington requires a hard copy of the log. There is no print or email option that I can find in the app so now all drives have to be transferred to paper. I also tried to submit feedback which was having issues, so here I am. Good app if you do not have to turn in a hard copy to DOL. Can’t recommend for drivers in Washington state.

This is exactly what parent and teen want in an app- easy, great graphics, accurate. You can have it time as teen drives, or update log at end of drive, end of day, anytime! Customize for all states.

I haven't found anything about this app that I don't like. If I could have anything I want it would be like Udrive where it knew when you started and when you stopped and then graded your driving as well as keeping up with miles and time. But I just use both and it works well.

I used this for my son when he needed 50 hours driving time in order to get his license, and I’ll use it with my other kids. It’s easy to use and makes it convenient to keep track of driving. I highly recommend this.

I have no idea how much driving my son had done. Several very detailed entries just disappeared. Back to using a paper log. :(

Easy to use but comprehensive. I would really love an upgrade that enables us to copy a previous log. For instance, my son drives us to his school every day. It would make it so much easier if I could just copy the previous day’s log instead of doing each one from scratch. Just a suggestion.

I love the features and everything but I'm stuck writing all my hours into a peace of paper because it won't send it to my email it just pops up as "no email selected" even though I've entered a valid email.

No Gps. This does not track the miles driven or map where you drive. You have to record the miles using your odometer. Essentials this is a stopwatch.

Very versatile app. Let's you keep track of your driver's new skills, not just log time. The only thing missing is an option to track traffic types such as rush hour, stop and go, construction, etc.

I really like this app. I wasn't sure about buying an app since there were many free ones but this is worth the money. It has a timer so you just need to start and stop it and it makes a log entry with the time. Later you can go back and enter in specifics who was with the driver, day or night, weather etc... Very easy and best of all it produces a table with all the information that you can send via email .

I love this app. It made it so easy to keep track of my daughter's driving hours. We didn't have to record any hand written entries and everything is downloaded right to my email on a spreadsheet so I could sent it directly to her driver's Ed teacher. Thank you so much!!! So worth the $1.99 I paid and more.

Perfect way to track the hours!

This app is good and all, but it looks like it was made during iOS6 and never got updated. I was just expecting more from an app in which I paid $2 for.

This app has been fabulous , for a parent! Saved a lot of time.

Easy to use. Exactly what we needed.

This app is super easy. Highly recommend.

I like this app, but have twins and they are both learning to drive.

Worth the money. The condition and skills tracking is worthwhile. It automatically created a log entry with a start/stop button and the log can be exported to an .xls file for submission to driver's Ed.

This was awesome and easy to track drive time. When we walked in to get the license with our excel spreadsheet detailing all of the practice hours, the DMV employee was impressed with the detail.

Easy to track hours and monitor the basic records needed for your young driver. Computes your times and does a nice job of organizing data. Accountability.

I love the app. Definitely worth the money. The only thing I would say is spicy up the look of the app.

I needed a good app to log my daughters driving record. She has been driving for a while and I was just writing it down in my phone notes but I needed to add them up. I PAID for this app and it usability is horrible! First, I can not easily go back in and log any hours. I have to scroll back a year to get to the start date I need. You should just be able to type the date and times in. Second I downloaded it to my iPad so I could easily read the log I had and thought the app on my phone would copy this data. NOPE. I have to go back into my phone and re-log all the information in. You would think for $1.99 the data should be able to transfer from one app to another under the same username or something. My husband downloaded the app as well to log what he drives with my daughter and it makes no difference because it won add to the log I have on my phone. There has to be a better version for parents to be able to log and keep the information in one place. This is not it

Makes tracking your time so much easier than trying to remember and writing it down on a piece of paper. Just copy and paste it to your paper after you're done driving

I’m glad I purchased this app, at first it did everything I wanted/needed. However, after several used I got frustrated with myself. I FORGET TO STOP THE APP WHEN WE ATE DONE DRIVING! I’ve let it run for 172 hours or something. Thankfully the app lets change the start and end time. My wish for an update is give pop-up reminders “Are you still driving?” or “Teen Driving app is still running” and maybe allow us to set a timer at different intervals. 15, 30... or even by the minute. I would sure appreciate that addition!

Easy, Fast, Downloads to Excel with no issues. Must have app beats carrying a paper around for 6 months.

Can’t tune total number of hours down to the hour... only 5 hr increments. Texas only requires 32 Daytime hours, but can’t adjust.

This app is well worth the money. It begins logging time with the press of a button. Afterward you can choose details about the trip by selecting descriptions. Home page shows progress at a glance. Log page shows dates and times. Slide for details. It's quick, easy, and accurate. Haven't tried sending a report yet.

Lacks GPS.

Simple and straight forward, yet sufficient. Tried a few others, this one is best. We all forgot to start or stop logging, but it is super simple to edit. Easy to print and take to DMV as a record.
