Driving Instructor Diary

Everything an independent driving instructor needs to run the week, in one app that works in the car with no signal. Pupils, lessons, prepaid hours, payments and test readiness — without a monthly platform charge.

Your pupils install nothing.

PUPILS
• Profiles with photo, phone, pickup address, licence number and expiry
• Theory and practical test dates, with a countdown to each
• Status of active, passed, paused or left — passed pupils stay in your records rather than being deleted

LESSON DIARY
• Day and week views of what is booked
• Clash warning if a new lesson overlaps an existing one
• Mark lessons completed, cancelled or no-show
• Pickup and drop-off recorded per lesson
• A reminder an hour before each lesson

PREPAID HOURS AND PAYMENTS
• Sell blocks of hours and track the balance as it is used
• A lesson taken from a block consumes hours and bills nothing, so prepaid hours can never be counted twice
• Pay-as-you-go lessons bill at the lesson rate
• Record cash, bank transfer, card or mobile money
• See at a glance which pupils are running low on hours

SKILL CHECKLIST THAT MATCHES YOUR COUNTRY
• Built-in checklists for the UK, US and Australia, plus a generic syllabus
• Every checklist is fully editable — rename, reorder, add and remove
• Duplicate a preset and build your own from it
• Rate each skill from 0 to 5 as the pupil progresses
• Readiness percentage counts unrated skills as not yet demonstrated, so the figure reflects the whole syllabus rather than only the parts you have looked at
• Weakest-skills view to plan the next lesson

TEST READINESS REPORT
Produce a document for a pupil or their parent showing progress by category, which skills still need work, hours taught and lessons attended.

EARNINGS AND REPORTS
• Earnings by week and month
• Hours taught, lessons by status and no-show rate, with cancellations excluded from the calculation
• Pupil-count trend over time
• CSV export for your accountant

WHY INSTRUCTORS SWITCH
• Works offline — the car park is not the place to discover you have no signal
• One-time purchase available instead of a recurring platform charge
• Checklists are editable rather than locked to one country's syllabus
• Available in 12 languages, including right-to-left layouts

WHAT YOU GET WITHOUT PAYING
Up to 5 active pupils with every feature working — passed, paused and left pupils do not count toward the limit, so you never have to delete history to stay under it. Premium removes the limit and adds the readiness report, CSV export, lesson reminders and ad removal.

This app is not affiliated with the DVSA or any driving licensing authority. The built-in checklists are written from published syllabuses as a teaching aid.

Add your first pupil and see the week ahead.
