A notebook entry takes six fields. This takes two taps.

Every trip needs a date, both places, both times, your odometer, and a reason. Smart Driver Log already knows most of it before you start typing.

Search by name, not address

Type “Waffle House” and the closest ones come up first, using your location. No street address, no city, no scrolling past results three states away.

Miles and drive time calculated

On arrival the app pulls the distance and duration from Google Maps and shows you the estimate. Accept it, or type over it if you took the long way.

It remembers where you left off

Your next trip starts where the last one ended, with the odometer already carried forward. Saved places bring their own default reason with them.

Plan a whole day at once

Line up several stops with how long you’ll spend at each, preview the times and miles, then save the finished run straight into your log.

Built for occupational, restricted, and hardship licenses. What these logs need to show

How it works

Choose a location. Drive. Export—ready when you need it.

  1. Step 1

    Log the trip

    Pick where you’re going, then tap Depart and Arrive. Times and miles fill in from Google Maps.

  2. Step 2

    Review and edit

    Fix a time, add a reason, correct the odometer. Everything syncs across your phone, tablet, and the web.

  3. Step 3

    Export

    One tap turns your log into a clean PDF to show, or a CSV for your own records.

Works offline. Open your logs once while connected and they stay on that device, so you can pull up a PDF with no signal.

The export that does the talking

Your PDF is a proper record, not a mileage summary. Every trip carries the date, both place names, both street addresses, departure and arrival times, the odometer reading at each end, and the reason you drove — with your name and the date it was generated across the top.

It prints on standard letter paper and opens on any device, so you can hand it over, email it to an attorney, or file it.
