## What is Drive Score Assist?

Drive Score is a real-time driving companion for drivers who want clearer feedback about safe-driving habits.

While you drive, the app shows current speed, 2-second, 2.5-second, and 3-second average acceleration, plus route-distance status in one focused dashboard. Tap the speed or acceleration area to enter Focus Mode, where large 7-segment numbers fill the screen. A blue guide explains that you can touch the screen for one second to return, and the return gesture is shown with a filling animation.

The app smooths unstable GPS readings and updates speed and acceleration only when location data is trusted enough. The GPS status panel shows public Core Location quality values, including accuracy, speed accuracy, course accuracy, refresh age, refresh cadence, and a beacon pulse when a new GPS update arrives.

The expanded map keeps the current location and full route in view, separates route and penalty sections by color, and avoids distracting route refresh flashes. If you manually pan or zoom, automatic fitting pauses. After 5 seconds without manual map interaction, the camera smoothly returns to the current-location and full-route view.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.11 — 2026-07-02

The first screen now lets you choose SIMPLE MODE or MAP MODE directly. SIMPLE MODE keeps speed and acceleration lightweight, while MAP MODE makes route and driving-distance recording easier to review. Ad display and tap reliability have also been improved.

### 1.0.10 — 2026-06-06

Map and GPS feedback are refined for active drives. The expanded map now renders routes with a green-first style, pauses automatic fitting while you pan or zoom, then smoothly returns to the current location and full route after 5 seconds of no manual interaction. GPS status now shows refresh cadence with a beacon pulse, and Focus Mode adds a blue one-second touch guide plus a filling return animation.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-05-31

Ad consent and banner ad configuration are refined. GPS recovery and stabilization behavior remains in place.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-05-30

GPS recovery after tunnels or underground sections is improved so speed and route tracking resume more reliably. The Good GPS threshold is now stricter at 5 meters or better.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-05-30

GPS trust filtering is stronger to reduce false speed and acceleration spikes around indoor, tunnel, or weak-signal conditions. The idle map now shows a wider area, and a GPS quality test panel has been added.
