Two world firsts

World first

Read on your smartphone — and send the original signed DDD instantly

Read your driver card straight on your smartphone and send the original signed DDD file with one tap via mail, WhatsApp & co. No one has to go to the office anymore — neither when the remaining days can no longer be pulled via telematics because the period has expired, nor when the driver card has to be read one last time after leaving the company. You save yourself those trips.

Not just displaying — we show what must be calculated

Reading the card and showing its contents is something many vendors do. T-Driver goes further and refines the raw data into what legally follows from it: working time, driving and rest times, infringements, allowances and minimum wage — the way it must be calculated under the applicable rules.

What the app does — and how

Every result comes solely from your real driver-card data. We never invent or fill in anything: if a value isn't on the card, it stays empty.

Read the driver card

Read your card with a USB-C card reader straight on your phone or tablet — in seconds, no sign-in.

The app talks to the chip via ISO 7816 (the same reading technology used by fleets) and decodes the raw file to the EU format — fully offline on the device.

Working time & 16-week average

Weekly and monthly working time, a rolling 16-week average and a traffic light showing when you exceed the 48-hour limit.

Shifts are built from the card's activities; paid leave/sickness count as neutral (not zero) so the average stays meaningful.

Driving, break & rest times

Detects exceeded daily/weekly driving time, a missing 45-minute break and short rest periods — per day as a timeline with markers.

The same infringement logic as the professional analysis portal, applied to the activity blocks on your card.

Time per country & minimum wage

Shows how long you spent in each country and checks your hourly pay against the applicable minimum wage.

From the border crossings stored on the card (smart tachograph), time per country is calculated — as guidance on which minimum wage may apply.

Return-home status

Keeps track of whether your 4-week return for the regular weekly rest is being met.

The last return is derived from the weekly rests in your shifts; the manual confirmation stays with you (it isn't on the card).

Dates & documents

Driver card, driving licence, code 95, ADR, ID card, passport and medical exam shown as a card with your real data — including expiry reminders.

Snap a photo, on-device text recognition reads the expiry date, and the app reminds you in time by notification (default 6 and 3 months ahead). From the card and documents the app also recognises the country and preselects the matching national rules for the legal analysis.

How it works

Three steps, no sign-in, nothing leaves your device.

01

Plug in the card

Put the driver card into a standard USB-C card reader and connect it to your phone/tablet.

02

Read & analyse

The app reads and decodes the card locally and computes working time, infringements and time spent.

03

Understand & stay ahead

Plain-language traffic lights, a timeline and document reminders — you know where you stand before anyone else does.

What's in it for you as a driver

Not a gut feeling — your own data, made understandable and on your side.

Full transparency

See your own working time and infringements yourself — not only when your employer or an inspection points them out.

On equal footing

Documented figures instead of arguments: you know your driving/rest times and your minimum-wage entitlement and can put them in context.

Never expired again

Reminders for card, licence, code 95, ADR & medical — no driving ban over a missed deadline.

Your data stays yours

Everything runs on-device. No account, no upload, no tracking — your employer sees nothing, and neither do we.

No money left behind

Minimum-wage check and time-per-country show whether your pay matches what you may be entitled to.

Free to use

The core features are free. Premium is a one-off and optional — no subscription, no ads.

Legally sound: facts, not a hunch

T-Driver doesn't compute by feel but according to the applicable EU rules. Here's what every result is based on — with a link to the official source. Where the card only allows an approximation, we say so honestly.

Driving and rest times: max. 9 h daily driving (twice a week 10 h), a 45-minute break after 4.5 h of driving, daily rest at least 11 h (reduced 9 h).
Art. 6, 7 and 8 of Regulation (EC) No 561/2006EUR-Lex · Reg. 561/2006
Road-transport working time: at most 48 h/week on average, up to 60 h in an individual week — the average is taken over the reference period (the basis of the 16-week average).
Art. 4 of Directive 2002/15/EC together with Art. 6/16 of Directive 2003/88/ECEUR-Lex · Dir. 2002/15/EC
Paid leave and sickness stay neutral in the average — they are not counted as zero and do not distort the average.
Art. 16(b) of Directive 2003/88/ECEUR-Lex · Dir. 2003/88/EC
Border crossings are stored on the driver card (smart tachograph); recording the country has been mandatory since 2 Feb 2022. The app derives time per country from them.
Art. 8 and Art. 34(7) of Regulation (EU) No 165/2014EUR-Lex · Reg. 165/2014
Whether the host country's minimum wage applies depends on the type of operation: cabotage and cross-trade trigger it, pure transit and bilateral trips do not. The app shows time per country as guidance — the binding assessment needs the contract and loading data and cannot be reliably derived from the card alone.
Art. 1 of Directive (EU) 2020/1057 together with Art. 3 of Directive 96/71/ECEUR-Lex · Dir. 2020/1057
Regular return: drivers must be able to return, within each 4-week period, to their residence or the operational centre to take a regular weekly rest.
Art. 8(8a) of Reg. (EC) 561/2006, inserted by Reg. (EU) 2020/1054EUR-Lex · Reg. 2020/1054
Data protection by design: because the card is processed only on your device and nothing is transmitted, TADMIN never receives your personal data — data minimisation is the architecture, not a promise.
Art. 25 GDPR (privacy by design) together with § 25 TDDDG (storage on the device)EUR-Lex · GDPR
Document deadlines: the driver qualification / periodic training (“code 95”) must be renewed regularly — the app monitors the expiry date and reminds you ahead of time.
