Great app, but missing essential features
I love Wheelz, especially with the ability to navigate with friends and customize the experience. It’s a refreshing concept compared to traditional navigation apps, and I see a lot of potential it. However, there are 2 major flaws that affect the experience.
First, there is no way to report or see road hazards, objects, or traffic slowdowns the way you can with other apps, these features help us drivers stay informed and safe.
Second, and more importantly, there is no hands-free voice search while navigating. If I’m already driving and need to navigate somewhere else I have to pull over and manually enter it. This is extremely inconvenient and could encourage drivers to interact with their phones while driving creating a safety risk.
I really want to see Wheelz succeed because the social features and the customizations make it stand out. But, essential navigation and safety features should be prioritized alongside these innovations.
I’ll gladly increase my rating if these issues were addressed.

Awesome app with one critical multi-car tracking bug!
I absolutely love Wheelz so far! The auto-tracking feature starts up flawlessly, adding new cars to my profile is incredibly easy and intuitive, and the map features are great for looking back at drives. It is exactly the kind of app I’ve been looking for to track my vehicles.
However, there is a critical data-handling bug when managing multiple cars. I usually set my current car as the default vehicle, complete my drives, and then switch the default vehicle later when I switch cars. I don't manually select a vehicle for each individual drive.
Right now, whenever I change my default vehicle, the app retroactively changes the vehicle assignment for ALL my past trips to match that new default. Because of this, my historical data is completely distorted. Switching the default causes my car-specific mileage totals to flip back and forth between thousands of miles and hundreds of miles.
Almost all of my historical car-specific data is essentially gone/unusable right now because the history won't lock the vehicle that was active at the time of the drive.
Changing the default should only apply to future trips, not rewrite past ones.
I love the app and really want to keep using it, but please fix this relational database bug so multi-car garage tracking actually works!

Too much info to share
They ask for your location 24/7, number which they don’t need at all
