# Moda — Teen Driving Permit Hours Tracker

Moda is an iOS app that tracks supervised driving practice hours for teens with learner's permits. It costs $4.99 one-time with no subscription, no ads, and no ongoing fees. GPS coordinates never leave the device.

## What Moda Does

Moda automatically detects day vs night driving using actual sunset/sunrise times for the teen's GPS location on that specific date — not a fixed time window. It tracks weather conditions via Apple WeatherKit at session start. It knows the specific permit hour requirements for all 50 US states plus Washington DC.

At session end, Moda generates a PDF log. For 7 states (Indiana, North Carolina, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania), it auto-fills the official DMV form. For all other states it generates a clean log with all sessions, dates, times, conditions, and supervisor names.
