Dings for hard brakes. even using their own data i have .2-.25G well under .33G yet flags them all day long and forget about braking for yellows. yellow means speed up or just run the red. support says it’s some third party software out of China so good luck getting it fixed

Used for a cheaper rate on our insurance, not sure I like being tracked everywhere I go.
helps keep drivers accountable. the only problem is sometimes multiple drivers with app are driving in same car and it doesn’t seem to always allow non drivers to negate the trip … getting dinged for using cell phone, other driver’s habits, etc
The app operates in the background and tracks your driving habits. The results have saved me hundreds of dollars in car insurance payments.
There are a few places on the map that the speed limit is incorrect. I got dinged for speeding when the posted speed limit was 55 mph and the map said the speed limit was 30, the speed limit never changed. There isn’t anywhere to give a reason for hard braking, as in avoiding hitting […]
so far I like it, but when you use your phone for navigation the app dings you for that, and it knows if passengers are on the phone.
*update – I would say 85% of my hard braking issues are me preventing an accident. Such a dumb app. I am glad it saves me money but seriously the hard braking part needs to go away. Can’t pass a slow vehicle without getting dinged on it. Would have hit a pheasant today had I […]
This appointment pretty much turns you into a worse driver. Dings you for “fast stops” that border on ludicrous. A light turned yellow, there was no way I could safely make it so I slowly stopped. Got dinged. Maybe the unit they sent me is bad. Stay away from this. Oh, yeah – it doesn’t […]
I find this app very helpful in keeping safe driving skills at the forefront of my thoughts while on the road. In rural states it might be helpful to have a category on fast braking that says “animal on road” or “sudden slow moving equipment /vehicle” or “construction” to explain why it is necessary. Likewise, […]
many of the stoplights in my area don’t give tons of warning. so we are getting dinged on our score for hard braking when we shouldn’t be. How about avoiding accidents. if we are going to get beat up in our score from that, and it basically cancels out everything good we do. What’s the […]
This app, through your insurance, will grade your driving based on 3 elements. While the other 2 are fine, braking was something contradicting. Like, if I needed to stop because of a deer or something, how would this affect me. I actually had to brake recently because of someone cutting me off. The score reflected […]
Even though it’s a little laggy sometimes and the “hard breaking” algorithm is calculated some weird way and not always reflective of the actual breaking, this app has helped me become a safer driver. Set-up and pairing with the vehicle was super simple and it is pretty straight forward on how to use it. The […]
In all the years I’ve been using apps, hundreds if not thousands of them, this is by FAR the one that needs the most improvements, if not just scrapped and redone from scratch. It is utterly a clusterfvck. It picks the wrong driver about 75% of the time so we have to go in DAILY […]
Overall great app, though it’s a little confusing for how you get docked points. For example, I was hit with a phone usage/distraction during a drive, which I didn’t do. And when I reviewed the event, it said phone used 00:00 minutes 0 times, but still counted against me. Other than that, it’s user friendly […]
Interesting app, but very finicky – be prepared to get nailed for no reason. I’ve lost random points for phone use even though I have never used my phone in the car (even when stopped) and have a 100% streak. You will also be faced with the big decision to run the yellow/red light or […]
It’s OK. When approaching intersections with traffic lights, it registers hard braking if I can still safely stop – rather than speeding up to beat the red. No idea how they can adjust for this, but it affects the daily score against me. Maybe there’s a way to show repeated hard braking occurs at intersections, […]
Buggy. Annoying that my discount depends on an app that is so buggy. It fails to upload trips. The notification pops up to say it is recording the trip, but no trips have been added to the log in the last two weeks. One of my registered vehicles now doesn’t appear in the list my […]
It was easy to set up and has helped me become more aware of my driving habits, which is why it got a 2. Other than that, it keeps decreasing my score when it doesn’t show any “events” have been logged and 5 stars for all of my trips. I don’t understand how it keeps […]
Works well! I had a hard brake and it took note and dropped my score unfortunately. I live in a rural area with deer, opossum, rabbits, squirrels and the like. Our road is contoured so we drive just to the right of center so I can see how this map might misinterpret some moves but […]
Device lags a lot, it doesn’t really calculate the savings to make it worth wild for the insurance and lastly my kids and I have different last names but for some reason the app sometimes recognizes us all under 1 policy and at times it has it all split by last name (household). If your […]
