Big Brother is watching
This is a terrible app that is very likely a violation of privacy for those that are compelled to use it for their jobs (delivery drivers for a company named after a large river in South America). The app doesn’t work properly unless you “allow” it to access your phone at all times, even though you are told it’s only assessing your driving when you’re working. DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT??
The app monitors your driving habits, even when you’re not driving. Yes, read that again. I was penalized for using my phone while I was on my lunch break, and while I was in the vehicle, the vehicle had not been moving for over 10 minutes at the time. If the app can monitor your acceleration, braking, turning, etc., surely it can tell when you’re NOT GOING ANYWHERE! This is absurd!
I should note that my driving score is consistently 850. I’m assessed as an excellent driver, and I still think this app is GARBAGE.Show lessBassoonMuscle
Worst app I ever came across
Logs false information on a regular basis. It puts people lives in danger because drivers are forced to drive extra slow so the stupid app won’t register “hard acceleration” when they hit the highway, or “hard cornering” when they turn left on the traffic light. Not only drivers losing they jobs, the public safety is in jeopardy because drivers operate their vehicle not according to the current road situation, but according to inaccurate app. Needs to be removed from App Store ASAP!Show lessRokolya
Too critical
Agree with other reviewer. They tie your job performance metrics to this app but it is way too sensitive and you have no way of defending yourself. The phone manipulation one is the biggest joke. Literally the job is using a phone. Without the phone you don’t know where you’re going, and it’s built in navigation is awful so you need to stay ahead of it. I find myself coming to a complete stop and waiting a few seconds, wasting time, just so this stupid app doesn’t ding me.Show lessBrichi1845
Super shady
So the app won’t allow you to use it unless you “always” allow you location services to be tracked (will not work for “while using”). Not sure I understand why this setting since the only time it is being used is during work. Unless our data is being harvested in the background while drivers are not on duty? Also this app running in the background (while not in use) drains battery. This needs to be fixed by the developers!!!!Show lessSmapty555
Terrible app
Latest update constantly crashes on iPhone. What is a”hard braking” and “hard acceleration” and “hard cornering”? Maybe in a small town this app would give favorable results, but in an actual large city you have far greater chances of being hit by other drivers, hence a “hard cornering” to avoid being rear-ended. Or you have to dart into traffic on a busy thoroughfare causing a “hard acceleration”. Or maybe the idiot in the lane next to you decides to switch lanes without looking to see if the lane is occupied, maybe a “hard braking”? The real world is very different than a “training “ video. Taking evasive measures and voiding potential accidents caused by other careless drivers should not penalize the drivers using this app.Show lesschale_man
Scoring needs work
2-3 hard acceleration \merging on highway you loose significant amount of points... Speeding needs work people honk get mad at you for driving 25 on 25 where the rest of the people just go around 35 so you get tailgated all the time .. hard stops are ridiculously sensitive no one slows down that slow .driving on highway on 55 speed limit everyone goes 60-65 you cause ppl to switch lane behind you so we basically become the cause of accidents and traffic cuz ppl constantly go around . If there was a way to rate it no star or report app I’d do it no hesitation because this app is so bad .. it mentors you to be a senior citizen who doesn’t know what they want to do on the road same ppl who causes accidents all the timeShow lesshashtag 0 star
Inaccurate and inconsistent
The better our score the more hours we get , so a-lot of people depend on the accuracy and consistency of the app to support and feed our families and to keep food on the table and roofs over our heads . Phone manipulation, smdh , the only time the phone gets touched is when the vans stops at a delivery location . If you can’t get it right please quit and let our companies find another way to micromanage us , thanks .Show lessJ Supa
Inaccurate data will cost us our jobs
Perhaps the creator of this app should be sued . I agree with the person about people jumping in front of you last minute .. that causes you to break hard no? Maybe instead of breaking hard we should just blow into the person that gets in front of us instead of avoiding an accident. Also agree about the rpms going over 3000 and you get hit .. on my route I have to go up so steep hills and guess what as soon as that transmission down shifts to climb the hill I’m losing points !! And let me tell you after the app update it’s gotten worse ! This week alone I’ve gone from 813 to 755!!! This app has given me nightmares! That’s the first thing I check in the morning before work ! Wondering if I’ll have a job from inaccuracy! You have one average day and lose 40 points ! This app is a joke ! I have drive sense with esurance running on my phone and gets a total different reading ! Stop causing people stress and job loss and fix your app ! Because one day you will get suedShow lesssportage17
The reviews are accurate
My Dsp has a dash cam. I’ve proven to them I’ve never looked at my phone not once during the times it said I did. Even when I turned the van off I still didn’t look at my phone. Another thing I can’t find an explanation to is, what is a “fast start distraction”? There’s no explanation for it and I was hit twice for it. I’m assuming it’s me moving as soon as I turn the van on? From seat belts to phone distractions. Honestly the only thing I found accurate was the reverses because my dsp doesn’t want us to reverse. So I get 10-15 is accurate. Everything else is a joke. Your app is costing me a route bonus on some days hitting me for hard braking but you don’t see on a highway when someone jumps into your lane too suddenly. Or when your going up a hill and rev the RPMs passed 3000 and get a ridiculous amount of points taken off is insane. WeShow lessAJSew
Bad software
I don't know if is the software or what! But on my different vans I get different score on the same ruta!mitzu86
