TDLR log + PDF export

The TDLR Log tab is the last step before signing. Filling the Texas 30-Hour Behind-the-Wheel log by hand is tedious and easy to get wrong — rows, categories, minutes, day/night all have to line up. LearnerLog does that accounting for you and shows exactly how many rows in each category still need filling before you can print.

  1. 1 Overall readiness. Two numbers that matter: how many of the form's 32 rows are ready to print, and how many of the 30 required hours you've logged. Both climb as you keep logging drives.
  2. 2 Rows filled / rows required. The official form has a fixed number of rows per category (for example, Starting/Stopping needs 2 rows, City Driving needs 5). A row needs a minimum practice duration to qualify. This shows your count.
  3. 3 Rows-needed tag. Tells you exactly how much is left in that category. Focus your next practice sessions on the categories with the most rows still needed.
  4. 4 Export Complete Log. Produces a PDF matching the 2015 TDLR form layout, filled in row-by-row with your recorded data, plus a detailed driving log appendix. Tap, save or share, print if your DPS office wants paper.

The 10 categories and their row counts

Texas's 30-Hour Behind-the-Wheel log is organized into 10 practice-activity categories. The minimum rows per category are fixed by DPS; they're the numbers shown on this screen:

Thirty-two rows total. LearnerLog auto-fills each row with a real drive segment that meets the minimum duration for that category.

What the PDF export contains

Tapping Export Complete Log builds two documents in one PDF:

  1. The TDLR log page. A faithful replica of the 2015 TDLR 30-Hour BTW log — same layout, fonts, and row structure — generated by LearnerLog and filled in row-by-row with your drive data. Each row shows date, minutes, day/night, and a signature line for the supervising driver.
  2. A detailed driving log. An appendix listing every recorded drive with start/end times and segment-level detail. Useful if a DPS examiner asks to see the breakdown behind the numbers; some offices request it, most don't.

When the PDF is ready, Android's share sheet opens — you can email it to yourself, save to Drive or Files, or send to a cloud printer.

What if a category still shows "Need N more rows"?

That's the normal state until you've logged enough practice in every category. Two ways to close the gap:

Tip: You don't have to wait until every row is filled to export. LearnerLog will hand you a PDF whenever you ask — it just won't be "complete" until each category has its required rows. Use mid-practice exports to spot-check the form before you reach 30 hours.
