Drive Mint DMV Permit Log

Track every supervised driving hour toward your license. No accounts, no ads, no cloud — everything stays on your phone. All 50 US states supported.

A private, modern driving log for learner drivers — and the parents helping them earn a license. Track supervised hours, see real-time progress against your state's requirements, and export a DMV-ready form when you're done. No accounts. No ads. No data leaves your phone.

Built by a parent of a 15-year-old learner who couldn't find a driving log app that wasn't bloated with ads, gated behind a sign-up, or quietly syncing every drive to someone else's server.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Start a drive and watch the timer, speed, and distance update live. Pause and resume whenever you need. • Optional GPS distance — turn on location and miles are calculated automatically. Coordinates are processed on-device and never stored or transmitted. • See your state's exact requirements — total hours, daytime hours, nighttime hours — with progress bars that move every time you save. All 50 US states supported, using data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. • Add the supervisors riding with your learner (parents, guardians, instructors) and see hours logged with each one. • Missed a drive? Log it manually with full control over date, time, distance, and conditions. • Export an official DMV form when it's time to apply for the license. North Carolina DL-4A is supported out of the box; a generic form works for other states. • Share a drive between two phones using a QR code — parent logs the drive on their phone, teen scans, and it's imported instantly. No cloud, no link, no account ever touched. • Store a photo of the learner's permit for quick reference. • Works on light and dark mode. Designed to be fast and quiet.

PRIVACY YOU CAN ACTUALLY VERIFY

DriveMint has:

• No accounts, no sign-up, no login screens
• No cloud storage — everything sits in a local database on your phone
• No analytics SDKs (no Firebase, no Sentry, no Amplitude — none)
• No advertising frameworks
• No third-party network calls during normal use
• Full offline functionality

This isn't marketing. The App Privacy section on this listing reflects the same answer: no personal data is collected, nothing is shared, and the only optional permission (location) is used on-device only.

If you've used other driving log apps and wondered why a permit tracker needed your email address, your phone number, or a cloud account — you're not the only one.

WHO IT'S FOR

• Teens working toward a learner's permit or graduated license • Parents and guardians supervising new drivers • Driving instructors tracking multiple students • Anyone who needs to document supervised driving in a serious way

DESIGNED TO ACTUALLY WORK

DriveMint is built on the latest React Native and Expo SDK 54 with native performance on iPhone and iPad. Cold-launch is fast, the timer runs reliably, GPS doesn't drain your battery, and there is no loading spinner waiting on a server.
