I have been using Samsara for about 5 years. The inability to delete old useless messages is ridiculous. I do not understand why Samsara programmers can’t make that a useful tool.. I can delete old workflow but not messages.. Mostly everything else works great except the inability to delete old messages.. ### 3/5 — Does not stay logged in *2026-08-13, version 2630.100.253389* When I randomly check the app, I find out that I’ve been logged out. This happens periodically. Once I want to log back in, it won’t let you unless you are close to the vehicle. I wish it would stay logged in. ### 4/5 — Great Technology *2026-08-11, version 2623.100.214469* Great app, love the new improvements you guys introducing to the app every time. You can still do better. ### 3/5 — Truck number *2026-08-06, version 2623.100.214469* Why do I have to select a truck number EVERY DAY?? ### 1/5 — SUCKS! *2026-08-02, version 2623.100.214469* It doesn’t work ,SLOW RESPONSE. Hit the button 10x, tap on it again and again. The worst app for trucking! Poor design! Made for your employer’s benefit not the employee . Made to work for them and allow settings for there purpose. ### 2/5 — Truck driver *2026-07-28, version 2622.100.166167* Supposed to be free ### 3/5 — Urgently clicks off *2026-07-27, version 2622.100.166167* Sometimes I’ve had issues with it clicking on in the middle of the night, making me have less hours to work ### 1/5 — Aggravating *2026-07-20, version 2622.100.166167* Have been using this software and app for a while now. The app will automatically put the operator in driving mode if the vehicle is moved. If you select personal conveyance and close the app it will set it to driving mode. Causing hours to be incorrect and put the driver in violation. Also as others have stated while performing a pre trip inspection if you accidentally close out the app you lose what data you have entered. ### 1/5 — Navigating system *2026-07-15, version 2622.100.166167* The worst navigation system I’ve ever used ### 1/5 — Glitches a lot *2026-07-14, version 2621.100.102848* I have used this for 4 years if I’m not mistaken, and I have not liked it to much a lot of glitches, slowness of the app and now I can’t even see my logs customer service put me on hold just to say fix it with your company I only deal with it because my company chooses otherwise I would go with a different log book ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Worst ELD App *2026-08-25, version 2632.100.286076* This app is the worse app to use. App isn’t real time updates and there’s delays when you’re viewing HOS. There’s been multiple times when changing duty status and the duty status that I set differs 2 minutes later. Example: As soon as I’m done driving for the day, I would either enter sleeper or off duty. Three mins later, I’d check my duty status and I’ll be right back in drive line. If you minimize the app, your driving hours are not real time updated. You have to wait 2-5 mins for the app to update real time. It’s not consistently updating especially if you close the app. ### 1/5 — Logged me out *2026-08-24, version 2632.100.286076* Logged me out after update and won’t recognize my credentials.. tried resetting password, no luck ### 1/5 — Not do it this company isn’t worth it *2026-08-23, version 2630.100.253389* This app sucks just as much as the ai software running it they should be shut down for scamming people and companies ### 1/5 — Driver *2026-08-19, version 2630.100.253389* The app does what it is supposed to do, but it is slow and laggy and if you minimize the app while doing something, it resets forcing you to start over. With the latest update, every time you open your device, it nags for blue tooth access, there is no way to stop the nag and it doesn’t need bluetooth access. Can’t use password manager without having to put in pin which sort of defeats the point. The app works, sure, but if I didn’t have a company mandate to use this app, I’d find something better. ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-08-19, version 2630.100.253389* This is the worst e-log I've ever used. They just had a major update that made it worse than it already was. I guess someone thought adding eight new and unnecessary steps just to login was a good idea. Pure slop. ### 1/5 — App is absolutely a piece of garbage and will only cost driver points and money from fines *2026-08-17, version 2630.100.253389* This app is absolute garbage it keeps switching me to driving from off duty while I’m parked and breaks are set so absolutely not moving. Samsara say nothing is showing up on their end as having a problem this is caused by people not being responsible for their inability to properly program their program properly. This app will end up costing the driver and company money and points from fines caused by the useless app and their inability to fix a simple problem that would be easily solved by a Bluetooth connection directly to the device but what do I know I’m just a truck driver ### 1/5 — Needs work *2026-08-13, version 2630.100.253389* There’s a huge delay from when you change status to when it updates. Freezes up when using PC. Does not work real time. Nothing like Motive. ### 1/5 — Dvir *2026-08-11, version 2623.100.214469* It sucks It’s been over 2 weeks and couldn’t find out issue with DVIR ### 1/5 — 👎 *2026-08-09, version 2623.100.214469* The new update is so slow constantly glitching and freezing ### 1/5 — Worst eld *2026-08-07, version 2623.100.214469* It doesn’t connect to vehicle saying other driver is driving and if you log out and sign in, it puts you from passenger to driver without asking ruining both drivers books. How can this worst eld change drivers in moving truck? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Worst logistic software *2026-08-24, version 2630.100.253389* I run logistics for a 600 million dollar company and this is by far the worst in the business. ### 5/5 — Samsara app *2026-08-21, version 2630.100.253389* Easy to use and very resourceful! The information saved and DVIR checklists makes keeping receipts and records so much more protected organized and efficient time saved on paperwork info is a game changer! ### 5/5 — Very Helpful! *2026-08-18, version 2630.100.253389* The app is very informative. ### 5/5 — Experience *2026-08-14, version 2630.100.253389* Excellent ### 5/5 — Brandon B review *2026-08-12, version 2630.100.253389* Samsara literally keeps me in check. Gives me things to pay attention to such as my speed, not taking off my seatbelt prematurely, and overall general focus. ### 5/5 — Love this appp *2026-08-12, version 2623.100.214469* Appreciate the app ### 5/5 — Very good connection with your fleet manager…!!! *2026-08-10, version 2623.100.214469* In a daily basic, my manager is able to follow me while driving the limo to track every aspect of driver skills through the ApP…an excellent support to our goals… thanks…!!! ### 5/5 — Very easy to use *2026-07-23, version 2622.100.166167* I’ve been using it for years very easy to use ### 5/5 — The Great *2026-07-21, version 2622.100.166167* I have proud that I got Acagemy ### 5/5 — Driver *2026-07-15, version 2622.100.166167* I love this --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
