Read full descriptionHide full description
huntDrive is the driver companion app for carriers running on huntTMS. An account is required. Your carrier creates your driver profile and you sign in with your phone number — the app cannot be used without an invitation from a carrier that uses huntTMS. What you can do: • See your assigned loads with pickup and delivery stops, times and pay • Follow the route to each stop on a live map • Update load status as you go — assigned, en route, delivered • Capture proof of delivery with the document scanner or camera • Keep compliance documents current and see what is expiring • Message your dispatcher directly, with photo and file attachments • Log expenses and attach receipts • Get notified when a load is assigned or updated Location is used while you are on a load so your dispatcher can see progress and provide accurate ETAs to customers. You can turn location off, and the rest of the app keeps working. Support: support@loadhunter.io
