## What is Instructor?

Let Instructor take away the chore of ADI admin and put the focus back on teaching pupils!

Instructor is the perfect companion for driving instructors to track learner progress as they build up to pass their driving test. With a simple and intuitive design, it’s the perfect app for any ADI to use to manage their students.


Instructor contains these great features:

PROGRESS TRACKING

As a driving instructor, knowing how well your students have progressed is crucial. Luckily, Instructor makes that quick & easy! A simple percentage & coloured scale allows you to visually see how well a pupil is doing on a per topic basis. Add comments to point out what they’ve done well and ways in which they could improve.


DIARY

It's easy to add a new lesson to your diary with the ability to set a duration, type (lesson, test or mock) and whether the student has paid.


DRAWING PAD

Draw using an Apple Pencil or your finger over a map or plain whiteboard to demonstrate manoeuvres. Snapshots can even be saved for later for you to come back to and show other students.


SYNCING & OFFLINE USE

If you’re using more than one device, Instructor automatically syncs all of your learner progress across all iCloud connected devices - no login required! Your data is available offline too.


PRESET TOPICS

As an ADI, time management is critical which is why getting setup with Instructor is quick and simple. There are a number of preset topics that allow you to get started right away! The preset topics included are:

- Cockpit & Controls
- Safety Checks
- Moving, Meeting & Stopping
- Anticipation, Planning & Speed
- Junctions
- Roundabouts
- Dual Carriageways
- Country Roads
- Manoeuvres
- Controlled Stop
- Independent Driving
- Motorways


CUSTOM TOPICS

Whilst a quick setup is useful, those looking for more customisation, can also choose to create their own topics to evaluate a learner against or, remove the existing preset ones. They’re easy to create and can even be assigned on a per student basis too!


DASHBOARD

The studentʼs dashboard is where youʼll find a summary of their progress, upcoming lessons and any notes added. There is also the ability to quickly contact them or navigate to their address. At the top of the screen, summary tiles show a countdown to theory or practical tests, stats such as hours learnt and overall progress.


SHORTCUTS

Manage students, update progress and much more with the power of Siri and the Shortcuts app.


UNIVERSAL PURCHASE

Get this app across multiple Apple platforms with a single purchase. Your Instructor Pro subscription works across devices too.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2025-04-28*

Best app for driving instructors

### 4/5 — Owner

*2023-05-18*

Nice App needs refinement cant add enough Topics/Lessons I have 13 topics I cover.
Ability to delete more than 1 student 
Mesaging features great

### 5/5 — New Update Makes All The Difference

*2020-06-24*

Looks better, works better, more customisable and the developer is really helpful. It sits in your iPad in the car and just streamlines anything. I use in conjunction with Facebook Page and iZettle for a really cost effective and comprehensive solution.

### 5/5 — It is not fully functioning app

*2020-03-14*

I would like to get my money back as this is not worth of spending £10.00 for something that is not complete.
Feedback now payment record diary sync and easy progress record not available. When you are with a pupil you want to tick boxes and leave comments and it takes ages move the points from 0-5 and so on.
I am really not sure how I am going to get my money back as I am not going to use it in the further and there was no basic version to be used that I could test it.

Please let me know how can I get the money back as I can do the basic programming and I can use it for me.
Mid Drive was excellent but unfortunately they have ceased the business for some reasons.

**Developer response:** Hi,

I'm currently working on a big update to the Instructor app which includes some of those changes.

I replied to the email you sent me but require more information from you. Please respond to the email so that we can sort this out.

Thanks


UPDATE: I’ve just released a brand new version of the app which uses a new 0 to 5 scale as suggested. I’d really love if you could check it out!

The app is now free to sign up and start using so no requirement to purchase if you don’t like it!

### 1/5 — Shockingly Bad

*2019-12-02*

A shockingly bad app that would not enhance my business in anyway.  In fact why the app cones up in the results when I search for a specific competitors app just goes to show it has no credentials of its own.  There should be rulers against that as several of my pupils have downloaded this app because it is misleading when it appears when using very specific keyword searches for other apps.  Maybe the app creator could sort this issue and google could also look into it as well.  It’s a big no from me!

### 1/5 — Not very good

*2019-11-12*

Just purchased to see what it’s about and very disappointed. Not even sure what I have bought. Don’t wast your money

**Developer response:** Hi, I’ve made some big improvements to the app and would really love for you to check it out.

It’s free to sign up and start using too!

### 5/5 — Very Good app

*2019-02-22*

This is a very good app if used properly, it gives students a good feed back of there performance, very good value for money lots of other similar apps are charging monthly subscriptions.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the positive review!

### 5/5 — Add

*2018-12-10*

This is a very good app. The developer is also very responsive and updated recently to fix few bugs I would  give 5 stars if he fix the issue of inserting crossroads under junctions. 10-12-18. This is a follow up he has been very helpful with the requests been made with the App.

**Developer response:** Please download version 2.0 of Instructor to gain access to Crossroads under the Junctions category!

### 5/5 — My students love it!

*2018-10-21*

My pupils love this app as they can see how they are progressing and also what they will be going over next lesson! Would highly recommend to all driving instructors!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the positive review!

### 1/5 — Not great.

*2018-08-09*

Paid for it just to see if it was any good. 
Very laborious to use and time consuming. Most of my learners don’t want to download the app and prefer an email of their progress each time as found in other apps.  
Can’t see at a glance what’s been covered. Asked for refund after 20 mins of purchase. Waiting response with crossed fingers . Sorry mr foot.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear this. Please email me: info@adamfoot.uk with any issues you face. Refunds can only be issued by Apple. Developers have no control over this.

In regards to emailing of progress, Instructor has that feature built-in. Simply select your student and tap the upwards share icon in the top right. 


UPDATE: Hi, I’ve made some big improvements to the app and would really love for you to check it out.

It’s free to sign up and start using too!
