How does Driving Log help in Massachusetts?
Driving Log tracks each drive with its day and night minutes and, where Massachusetts sets a numeric target, shows the time you drove beside the time that counts under the configured rules — with the reason whenever they differ. The core app is free, keeps everything on your device and private iCloud, and needs no account. A printable record of every entry is included; sourced worksheet layouts for several states are part of the one-time Pro upgrade.
