Drives that vanished after a crash, or a finish flow that never saved.
Every drive is kept, as you go.
Recording is written to your iPhone every 30 seconds. Finishing saves straight away. Reviewing a drive is optional, never a second save step.
For learner drivers on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch
Track your learner driving hours. Never lose a drive.
Driving Hour Tracker is a learner driver logbook for iPhone. One tap times each supervised practice drive, night hours are worked out from sunset, every route goes on the map, and a tidy PDF report is always ready.

Why we built it
We read 280 reviews of the popular logbook apps before we wrote a line of code.
The same four complaints kept coming up. Each one became a rule for this app.
Sign-ups, verification codes and cloud errors before a 20-minute drive.
No account. Ever.
Your logbook lives on your device first and syncs through your own iCloud when you're signed in. No sign-up, no verification codes, nothing to remember.
Ads between you and the Start button.
Nothing interrupts a drive.
No ads, no pop-ups, no upsells while you're recording. Start, drive, finish.
Totals that don't add up, and night hours that seem to count twice.
Hours you can read at a glance.
Hours and minutes everywhere, night always shown inside the total, and what's left to your goal on the front page.
One drive, start to finish
What the app does while you drive.
One tap to start
Pick who's supervising and go. The timer, the route and the supervisor are saved together as you drive.
Saved as you go
Every 30 seconds the drive is written to your iPhone, even if the app closes. A crash never costs you the drive.
Sunset, counted
When the sun sets where you are, the rest of the drive counts as night. No working it out at the end.
Parked? It notices.
Stop driving and the app offers to finish. Leave it and the drive is saved five minutes later. Or keep recording.
Saved. Straight away.
Finishing saves the drive immediately. Check or edit it later. There's no second save step to miss.

Features
Everything a logbook should do. Nothing that gets in the way.
Knows when you're driving
A nudge to record as you set off, and an automatic finish once you park. Detection is best effort and never ends a drive on its own.

Devices

One logbook, everywhere you are. The iPhone records; the watch and iPad follow along.
Your goals
Set your own target. The app counts down to it.
Learner hour requirements differ by country and state, and some authorities require their own logbook, app or form. So the goals are yours to set, and the front page always shows what's left.
120 hours, 20 at night
A common target for learners under 25 in New South Wales and Victoria.
100 hours, 10 at night
What Queensland asks of learners under 25.
50 hours, 10 at night
Typical for a teen learner's permit in many US states.
Examples only. Check your licensing authority's current requirements and what records it accepts. The app's report is for your own records and doesn't replace an official logbook or form.
Questions
Before you start your first drive.
Do I need an account to log my driving hours?
No. Open the app, type the learner's name and a first supervisor, and start your first drive. The logbook is saved on your iPhone or iPad first. If you're signed in to iCloud it also syncs to your own iCloud account, so it's on your iPad too and you can share it with a supervisor.
Does the app work without an internet connection?
Yes. Recording, the timer, night estimates and the logbook all work offline. iCloud sync and sharing catch up whenever a connection is available.
How are night driving hours worked out?
The app uses sunset and sunrise at the places along your recorded route. Time after sunset counts as night and is shown inside the drive's total. You can edit the night minutes on any drive, and a drive with no route is flagged so you can add them.
Will my licensing authority accept the PDF report?
The report lists every drive with its date, times, night hours and supervisor. It is for your records and doesn't replace an official logbook, app or form. Check what your licensing authority accepts before your test.
What happens if the app closes during a drive?
Every drive is written to your device every 30 seconds while recording. If the app closes, the drive is recovered at the next launch, paused at its last saved time, and marked for review so you can check the finish time. If a save ever fails, the recording stays on the device and you can share a recovery file.
Can a parent or supervisor see the logbook?
Yes. Invite them from Settings and they get a live copy of the logbook over iCloud, either view only or able to add drives. They need an iCloud account and the app. Adding a supervisor's name alone doesn't share anything.
Does it work on Apple Watch?
Yes. The watch app shows your hours, lets you pick a supervisor, and starts, pauses and finishes drives while your iPhone is nearby. Complications show progress and a Start button.
Where is my data stored?
On your device, in the app's own database, and in your own iCloud account when you're signed in to iCloud. If you share a logbook, the people you invite get a copy through iCloud too. There are no accounts with us, no analytics and no ads. See the privacy policy.
Your first drive is one tap away.
Driving Hour Tracker is on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
