### 2/5 — Needs Help

*2026-07-23*

This app works fine WHEN you get logged in.  Presently when I open the app, it tries to open for 2 seconds, then closes down. I simply can’t get it to open on a newer iPad Mini 6.

### 2/5 — Works for 2 out of 5

*2025-07-15, version 4.1.0*

On iPhone it’s almost impossible to keep it working

### 1/5 — Experiment not reliable product

*2025-04-10*

1.Inaccurate placement of truck movement
2.600$ deposit
3.When you do 34 hour sleeper cycle randomly stop and install driving hours
4.When you call support they are useless “there is nothing we can do”
5.Not synchronized event sheet

### 3/5 — Ko

### 1/5 — What update?

*2024-09-14, version 3.8.4*

After yesterdays update literally nothing works…. What did you guys fix? Literally every5ingg was fine now it’s crashing down on my new tablet ???

### 1/5 — Not the sharpest tool in the shed

*2024-08-08, version 3.7.5*

On a good day it will crash about twenty times in an eleven hour day. Since the last update it won’t even connect to the truck and is in perpetual search mode. So if you enjoy running paper logs this is the ELD for you.

*2024-08-02, version 3.7.5*

No running in the background

### 1/5 — Not good anymore
