IMPORTANT NOTES
We recommend keeping your phone or tablet plugged into a charger for the best GPS coverage. If the battery is low, the app will check GPS location less often. The BigRoad app asks for access to your contacts and phone so you can easily send check-in messages, documents, and copies of your log using your contact manager. We do not copy or store any of your contact information.

### 1/5 — Fix signing daily log issue

*2026-08-19, version 36.6.4*

App has worked great until the most recent update and now I cannot sign my logs. Running Apple iPad.

### 1/5 — Outstanding, User Friendly

*2026-08-18, version 36.6.4*

The only problem which is minor, is that it needs a Wi-Fi connection for some functions. Sometimes this makes it impractical.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-06, version 36.5.2*

Non stop glitching and having to retype notes because the app deletes them ove and over again before I’m even done typing them among many other things horrible app

### 5/5 — Owner operator

*2026-07-01, version 36.5.2*

Great application love it so far

### 3/5 — Owner Operator

*2026-07-01, version 36.5.2*

Mileage reports are completely way off

### 3/5 — C-

*2026-06-30, version 36.5.2*

70 percent reliable

### 2/5 — BigRoad could equal BigFines

*2026-06-27, version 36.5.2*

At its best, this ELD is OK. However, you have to always keep an eye on it. There are MAJOR connectivity issues. It will change your duty status, randomly on its own, or not even recognize that you’re driving & change the duty status to driving, for example.

### 5/5 — Owner op

*2026-06-25, version 36.5.2*

10 out of 10

### 1/5 — Owner

*2026-06-22, version 36.5.2*

No good

### 1/5 — Owner

*2026-06-22, version 36.5.2*
