What’s New Version 4.6.1
We made it easier to stay on top of everything that matters for your TLC license and vehicle.
Smarter Notifications
You can now manage your notification preferences right from your profile settings. If notifications are turned off, TLC Hero will show you a quick reminder and take you directly to your iPhone Settings to turn them on — no digging through menus. Stay informed on ASP suspensions, meter alerts, open tickets, and upcoming license or registration expirations.

Description
TLC Hero — The All-in-One Toolkit for NYC TLC Drivers.
Every tool a New York TLC driver actually uses, in one app. Almost everything is free. No subscription required. Built by people who know what it takes to get licensed, stay compliant, and earn a living behind the wheel in NYC.
Whether you're applying for your first TLC license or you've been driving for 20 years, TLC Hero is your daily driver.
GETTING YOUR TLC LICENSE
• Application Status Tracker — Watch your TLC license application move through the system in real time. Know exactly where it's stuck and what's next. Free.
• TLC Exam Prep — 500+ practice questions, full timed mock exams (25 min and 80 Q / 2 hr), wrong-answer drills, science-backed study plan. Pass on the first try and skip the $49 retake fee. 30 questions free, then $19.99 one-time unlock.
• Car Checker — Find out instantly if a vehicle qualifies for TLC use before you buy or lease. Free.
FOR LICENSED DRIVERS
• TLC Active List — Instantly search the official NYC TLC registry by plate, VIN, or driver license. Look up any TLC vehicle or hack license. Free.
• License Tracker — Automatically tracks expiry dates for your TLC license, vehicle registration, inspection, drug test, and insurance. Get reminders before anything lapses. Free.
• Tickets & Violations — Pulls live parking tickets and summonses for your plates from NYC Open Data. Catch them before TLC does. Free.
• Secure Vault — Encrypted storage for your TLC license, insurance card, registration, and any other document. Always one tap away. Free.
• Hero Parking — Live TLC-aware parking map showing where you can legally pull over right now. Avoid the ticket before it happens. Free.
• Industry Data — NYC TLC market intelligence: trip volume, revenue trends, fleet growth. Know your market. Free.
• Airport Flights — Real-time arrivals and passenger demand at JFK, LGA, and EWR. Time your airport runs around actual flight loads. Free.
COMMUNITY
• RoadHouse Live — Voice rooms with nearby drivers. Talk airport queues, surge spots, TLC updates, and night-shift tips in real time. Free.
• Buzz — Driver community feed + curated TLC and rideshare news. Post photos, ask questions, share what's happening on the streets. Free.
• Friends — Build your driver network. Stay connected to the people who actually understand your day. Free.
• Driver Picks — Trusted recommendations from drivers, for drivers — places to eat, rest, fuel up, and find restrooms across the five boroughs. Free.
Pricing that respects drivers
We're a tools-first app, not a subscription trap. Almost every feature is free, forever — no ads, no upsells, no recurring charges to use the daily essentials.
• TLC Exam Prep is the only paid feature: a one-time $19.99 unlock. Buy it once, keep it forever. No monthly fees.
• Community Supporter is an optional $2.99/month membership for drivers who want to help keep the rest of TLC Hero free for everyone. Completely optional — every tool works the same whether you support or not.
Built by drivers, for drivers
Most "driver apps" are made by tech people who never took an airport run at 4 am or waited two hours for a TLC inspection. TLC Hero was built specifically for the New York TLC driver — the rules, the rhythm, the way you actually use your phone between fares.
If you have a TLC FHV license, a hack license, drive a yellow or green cab, or you're working to get licensed for Uber, Lyft, Via, or a fleet — TLC Hero is the app you've been waiting for.
Download free. Start with the tools. Unlock Exam Prep when you're ready.
