2. If Service NSW Centre staff can retrieve the driving hours you have logged in Licence Ready, they will then verify, record and sign off the total hours you have completed in the paper logbook as a bulk entry.You can then continue to log your additional hours in the paper log book.

Mobile phones in the car

The app lets you 'set and forget'. This means the app will record your drive in the background.

You must start the app while you're safely parked out of the line of traffic, then put your phone away while you're driving.

It is illegal for learner drivers to use a mobile phone while driving. This includes when stopped at traffic lights or stuck in traffic.

Find out the rules on mobile phone use.

When supervisors can use the app

The app does not  need to be touched while a learner is driving. However, a supervisor can use the app while a learner is driving, if it doesn't distract the learner or stop the supervisor from guiding the learner.

Supervisors and passengers should limit phone use while they're in the car to avoid distracting the learner.

Switching from paper book to app

You can choose to switch from a paper log book to an app. However, you will have to manually log the completed log book entries into the app.

This includes:

• the date and time
• how long you drove
• supervisor or instructor details.

Your supervisor or instructor will need to confirm each entry.

Mobile reception

You won't need an internet connection to log driving hours. You will only need to log into the app to verify your licence details and your supervisor's licence details.

If a GPS signal is not available, your driving activity can continue and will still be recorded. It might mean that not all fields will be automatically filled (for example, the location might be missing). You can enter these details manually once you've finished driving.

Registering driver details in the app

When you download and register with a log book app, you'll need to enter a stock number and licence expiry date. The stock number is on the back of your licence card, in the top left corne
