DL Vehicle Log

Want to track your fuel economy, see your average mileage and cost, then this is the app for you. Add multiple vehicles, record your fill-ups and you will get everything you need from annual averages to drill down charts, and be able to compare different vehicles over time.

To help you understand the capabilities as easily as possible, an example vehicle is already loaded into the app, so you can see all of the graphs and the summary and status screens.

On the right is an example of the graphing capabilities that you can expect to find

Find it in the AppStore:

Overview

Vehicles

You can add, edit (reorder and remove) vehicles from the home screen on the Vehicles Tab.

The other two images show the Add screen (more details below) and the Details screen of the example vehicle.

In the Details screen, you have a collapsable summary, which shows the Start information, start mileage and purchase date, the Driving Total, for total miles driven, total fuel added and total cost spent, the Average per Year, which is averaged over all the Records to give average distance, fuel, cost, fuel economy and cost per distance, and finally the same figures for the last 12 months worth of Records.

You can add new Records via the + icon at the top right of the detail screen, or if you have multiple vehicles, it may be easier to use the Quick Add tab.

Records

The Add Record screen takes the defaults from the Vehicle and allows you to add a specific fill up. You have the date, defaults to today, the odometer/ milage figure, the Driving Style, amount of Fuel In, the Fill Level, the Cost and any Notes.

Once a Record has been added, Vehicle Log will automatically perform various calculations to determine Averages, Fuel Economy and Price per Distance.
When you have more than 1 Record, it will automatically calculate the cost per distance based on the previous fuel loaded price. This is because the distance you just drove was with the previous fuel, so the cost is based on the previous price.

Graphing

Once you have records added, the graphing capabilities really help you drill into the details. You can select from:

Fuel Economy

The calculated fuel economy of the record

Cost / Distance

Based on your currency and distance selection, it will show the cost per mile / kilometer

Fuel Price

The price as record, per unit of volume

Range

The range driven, either full range or if not a full tank, the estimated range

Highway Driving

The percentage of Urban versus Highway Driving

Add Vechile Details

There are several facilities within Vehicle Log, which allow you to customise how it displays information.
At the vehicle level you can define some defaults, which are designed to make adding Records easier as you can define the defaults and each Record will automatically set to this value.

Fill Level

The Fill Level is used to calculate Estimated Range, if you did not fill the tank to the top.

Driving Style

This is used to tell Vehicle Log if you have driven mostly on urban or local roads or you have driven on highways or motorways.
The Driving Style is then available in the Graphing screens.
More graphing and functionality around Driving Style will be added in a future release.

Distance, Volume and Fuel Economy

To be as flexible as possible, we support multiple Distance Units, either Miles or Kilometers. We also support multiple Volume Units, either Litre, Gallon (Imperial) or Gallon (US).
This then means the supported Fuel Economy options will change, automatically, to support options you have selected above.

We are constantly working to improve the apps we produce and welcome feedback.
