Latest update rubbish

Latest update made acceleration off, now mostly records incorrectly. Just another one of many many reason this app is a complete waste of time.

Increase chances you will be a victim of road rage

Where I live and work, the flow of traffic is higher than other states I’ve lived. I’m driving the speed limit or lower now, and I have a high score (800+) but I have people that tailgate me on every trip—I literally had an old lady on a golf cart on my tail when the road was clear but 25 mph. She nearly passed me illegally to risk her life, maybe even mine or possibly oncoming traffic. But I have to use this app for my job. This app is having me curious about other sales jobs that don’t require this app… I don’t want to be a victim of road rage, I’d rather safely drive the flow of traffic but if I do that then this app gets me in trouble. Guess I’ll have to put my safety in the hands of everyone else on the road since this app has me in everyone’s way!

Worst driving app ever

This app gives random scores

This app would have a rating of zero if they allowed you to give it a zero. We’ve tested this app by putting three phones in the glove box driving about 10 miles taking the phones out and having three different scores. It will give you a score saying hard breaking when you’re driving straight on the interstate. It’s a pretty worthless app that our company requires us to have.

What a joke

This app is a joke. I don’t care how perfect you drive is it will never give you 5*. If you drop your phone on the floor by accident boom it a phone manipulation, rest you are on the phone if it sitting on the center console boom phone manipulation . You get a phone call and goes to voice mail boom phone manipulation, if your turning out from a street that’s a blind corner and you have to hit the brakes hard because of a car coming around the corner to not hit them boom hard braking infraction. I can go on and on. Only reason I have this is work requires it since it’s a company vehicle.

Total Mystery

This app is quite pathetic. It gives me the impression that it pulls a score out of thin air or a private orifice.
Just like their credit score, there is no way to understand how they arrived at their rating. This app will ding you for things but never show where there was evidence of a driving “infraction.” It will also lower your rating for things like “no evidence of smooth stops” because your trip only had one stop at the end.
If I were king for a day, I’d search for a more accurate tool to rate my drivers with.

Worthless

I have been driving company vehicles for thirty years in the north east. Smooth driving is a joke.
Never gives an accurate reading. Driving Miss Daisy would get a high risk rating.
If you break because someone runs a stop sign you get an inattentive driving notification.

Worthless, big brother App

I’ve been driving a company car for 35 years with no accident accidents and no moving violations our company has made us have this app on our phone for the last five or six years. It has not improved Kenny. I have tested this app many times by having two people in the car. We put both phones in the glove box and we drive 10 miles take the phones out. And have two totally different ratings. I think this app just randomly gives you scores not associated with how you drive. I have driven on a straight interstate highway with the cruise set at several miles below the speed limit and then stopped off the interstate and it would tell me I had bad breaking and did not drive through the curve properly this is a worthless app that wouldn’t be around if companies weren’t forced to use it that’s why it has a one rating

Doesn’t know what it’s recording

I apparently turn fast, accelerate fast, hard brake… even when I’m not in the car.

Worthless big Brother App

Since I drive a company vehicle, I have had to have this app on my phone for the past 5 to 6 years it is still not improved. We have tested this app many times by putting two phones in the glove box. And driving 10 miles on a straight interstate with the cruise control set. When we stop, we will get two totally different ratings. I think the rating are just randomly generated. I can drive on a straight interstate with the cruise control. I had harsh breaking and poor cornering. Which is not possible this app would have a score less than 1.3 if you could give it a zero

Junk

Junk. Speed limits in app do not reflect the actual speed limit of the road. Parameters for smooth driving will get you hurt if you drive like that in the real world.

Janky

Super janky, but hey, the users aren’t doing it by choice so why would the company fix any issues? False alarms are normal. Probably get someone fired by lack of software development but they already got paid so… yea

This app gives random scores

Our company has used this app for many years to monitor driving. But it is not improved when it comes to its ratings. I have tested it by having two people in the car putting both phones in the console completing a drive and you’ll get two totally different ratings. I’ve also, tested it by pulling onto a
Interstate setting the cruise at 5 miles below the speed limit driving 10 miles getting off at an exit ramp and stopping and I’ll have ratings that say hard turns and sharp breaking. So the scores are random and it’s worthless. The true rating would be zero if, we were allowed to put zero.

Waste of time and money

Kiss your battery life goodbye. Two people in the same car will get two different scores even if the phones are secured together. Missed trips for an entire day. Received two phone calls while driving that weren’t answered. Logged as calls received.

Driving score

The app is a joke. You can drive on straight road for 3 miles and score a 5 star drive but the app still takes up to 15 points of you. You can brake hard to avoid a danger or hazard. The app scores this against you. You can give feed back on the drive but there office just tells you it’s how it collects date and then Does nothing. If you stop using the app there office emails your company to tell them
Would not buy this app. People may loose jobs over the incorrect scoring system it has.

Unpredictable

I never know what kind of score I will get and no guidance on how to improve it. Traffic circles usually improve score, straight driving on interstate hurts a score. Why can I get a number score vs stars. Why can’t I get an exact score for each drive. Is this too difficult? This app is basically useless wish there was a no start button on the rankings. . When carpooling with work we all get different score levels for the same drive. If my hand touches the screen by accident while driving that’s a phone manipulation, it needs to be able to filter accidentally touching vs actually using it. Maybe apple will take time to develop this software so that it’s functional.

Worthless app

There’s a good reason this app has a 1.3 rating because everyone who uses it hates it. I’ve been driving a company car for over 30 years and over 2,000,000 miles driven without an accident or traffic violation ticket. You can have two phones with this app on them put both in the console and when you stop the trip, you’ll have two different ratings. We’ve had this app for many years. The developers, never do anything to improve it. The developer responses to any criticism is the same garbage no matter what you write. companies forced their employees to use it even though it does not help improve driving. It’s just a big brother App.

Mentor teaches you how to drive dangerously

Mentor is only useful if you drive during the day, on well maintained roads, in perfect weather conditions, with no stop lights, and no other vehicles within three miles of you.

There have been times where someone pulls out in front of me, and I have hesitated on hitting the brakes because mentor has me trained that hard breaking is bad. It’s better to run that red light, than stop hard if the light turns yellow. Kid runs in front of your car? Better hit them. Swerving to avoid an accident is bad. If Mentor has the speed limit for a road wrong, better follow the Mentor speed rather than the posted speed. Regardless of the danger this poses.

Mentor is so out of touch with reality, I wonder how often they are included in the lawsuits for being the cause of accidents… The laws don’t matter, there can be only Mentor!

Horrible App

Using this app only because my company requires it. I would rate this app a zero however the minimum is 1 star. I drive the speed limit, slow down for curves and am a trained defensive driver with over 35 years driving. Never a ticket, never an accident and I pay very close attention to my driving as well as those around yet my score has only gone to 812 once and immediately dropped to below 800 on several occasions. Avoid this app if you can it gives false readings and doesn’t allow for improvement based on your TRUE driving skill set
