Smart Driver Log
FAQ
Common questions about signup, billing, logging trips, and offline PDF export.
How do I sign up / start the free trial?
Open Sign up, create an account with your email and password, then choose monthly or yearly. You'll complete checkout with Stripe to start a 7-day free trial. A payment method is required so billing can continue after the trial if you keep the plan.
What happens after the 7-day trial?
If you don't cancel, Stripe charges your chosen plan— $7.99/mo or $49/yr—and your subscription becomes active. You keep access to trip logging, planning, and exports.
How do I cancel or change my plan?
Sign in, open Billing, then use Manage subscription to open the Stripe customer portal. There you can cancel, switch plans, or update your payment method.
How do I log a trip on my phone?
After signing in, open the app home. Choose or search your departure place, tap to start, then record arrival with place, times, and whole-mile odometer readings. Saved locations make common places faster to pick.
What are saved locations for?
Under Manage locations, you can save places you use often (home, work, clients). They show up when logging trips and planning routes so you don't retype addresses every time.
How do I export a PDF for an officer?
On your tablet (or phone), open View Logs, then tap Export PDF (also available from the account menu). The PDF opens in the browser so you can hand the device to an officer. You can also export CSV for your own records.
How does offline / tablet use work?
While online, open View Logsonce and wait until you see a “Synced …” time. That saves a local copy on that device. Later, even without internet, open the installed app → View Logs → Export PDF. Do this sync on the tablet you'll use at a traffic stop.
Can I enter trips while offline?
Not yet. Offline mode is for viewing the last synced log and exporting PDF/CSV. Log new trips when you have a connection.
Who is Smart Driver Log for?
Anyone who needs a clear occupational or restricted-license driving log—including Texas ODL and similar programs in other states. See Occupational driving log for more background.
