Every supervised driving hour counts. Logbook Drive makes sure none of them get lost. Getting a driver's license means logging dozens of practice hours — and keeping an accurate, DMV-ready record shouldn't add stress to an already demanding process. Logbook Drive tracks every session automatically, so teen drivers and their parents can stay focused on what matters: building real skills behind the wheel. ONE TAP TO START, EVERYTHING ELSE IS HANDLED Begin a session and Logbook Drive takes over. GPS records the full route while the app automatically detects whether hours qualify as day or night driving — a distinction that matters in most states. When the drive ends, every detail is saved, timestamped, and ready to review. No manual entry, no forgotten sessions. BUILT FOR ALL 50 STATES Every state sets its own DMV permit requirements, and Logbook Drive knows them all. Choose your state and the correct hour targets are set automatically — including separate day and night minimums where applicable. The per-driver progress dashboard updates in real time, so you always know exactly how many hours remain before the road test. THE WHOLE FAMILY, ONE APP Managing more than one learner driver? The family Garage lets you track multiple drivers from a single app. Each driver gets their own profile, their own progress view, and their own complete session history — organized and separate, all in one place. READY WHEN THE DMV IS When it's time to submit your log, Logbook Drive exports a clean, complete record in CSV or JSON format — easy to share your driving data. Import your data back at any time to keep your history safe across devices and upgrades. PEACE OF MIND, EVERY SINGLE DRIVE For parents, Logbook Drive means no lost paper logs, no confusion about night-hour rules, and no last-minute scrambles before the license test. For teen drivers, it means a clear picture of real progress and the satisfaction of watching the hours add up. Download Logbook Drive today — your first drive is just one tap away.
