Simple Drive Log
Read full descriptionHide full description
Drive Log tracks your driving sessions the way fitness apps track your workouts — automatically, beautifully, and without getting in the way. **Made for learner drivers.** Working toward your license? Drive Log logs every session and shows your running total of hours, including night driving. Set your own targets and watch the progress bar fill up. **Distraction-free while you drive.** When you start a drive, all you see is a large timer on a dark screen. No maps, no pop-ups, no distractions. Background GPS records your route silently. Tap End Drive when you're done. **Your route, beautifully visualized.** After every drive, see your complete route painted on the map with speed-colored segments — green for calm neighborhood streets, red for highway speeds. Elevation profile included. **A complete record of every session.** Every drive is logged as a card with the route preview, date and time, distance, duration, and speed stats. Add notes and tags. Filter by night driving, highway, or your own custom labels. **Keep your car in check too.** Log fuel fill-ups, oil changes, tire rotations, and repairs. Track fuel efficiency over time with a built-in chart. Never forget when you last changed the oil. **Your data stays yours.** Drive Log stores everything on your iPhone and your private iCloud. There are no accounts to create, no servers receiving your location, and no ads. Export your data as CSV anytime. Delete the app and your data goes with it. Works with iCloud to sync across all your devices. --- Requires iOS 18 or later. iPhone only. ---
