Description
StarLog is an automatic mileage and trip tracker for iOS. It detects when you start driving, records your route in the background, and saves the trip when you're done. Organize drives by vehicle, category, purpose and saved places, view distance, duration and driving insights, and export mileage when needed. With Live Activities, iCloud sync, parking info and CarPlay support, StarLog keeps your driving history organized with almost no manual work.

Could you build this?
Partial A basic manual logger is trivial, but reliable automatic background driving detection, persistent geofencing, and route tracking without draining iOS battery requires non-trivial native iOS core location expertise.
What it would actually take: The app requires native Swift using iOS CoreLocation (`CLVisit`, `CLLocationManager` with activity type `automotiveNavigation`), CoreMotion (`CMMotionActivityManager`), and on-device Vision/CoreML for receipt OCR. The primary bottleneck is tuning background execution modes, stationary vs. driving state transitions, and GPS accuracy while minimizing battery consumption against strict iOS background throttling limits. Building this reliably demands specialized knowledge of iOS location and motion hardware lifecycles.
