Reviews for Drivewyze: Tools for Truckers

← Back to Drivewyze: Tools for Truckers

Worked exceptionally well in the beginning. Then they made an " upgrade " which now causes problems. Sometimes it works at the weigh stations and sometimes it never even notifies you. It did not do this for the first six months. That I had it. Pencil pushers seem to always find a way to over complicate things 🙄

Im going to rate 1 star since after 3 weeks now the app has been horrible, for me and my other drivers, its not detecting weigh stations most of the time, even with the app open you ride straight into the weigh station with no notifications, sometimes it skips the two miles notification and jumps straight to the 1 mile notification, the agriculture inspection site in florida has been wacked out, some days it give bypass, some days it doesn't even pop up at all...

3 stars for now. I just downloaded it. If it works this week I will be buying the full service. As a company driver who's company refuses to get pre pass this could be a great tool for me. Update will be coming On Fri 4/12/21. UPDATE. THIS APP IS FREAKING AWESOME. It works in every state I've been except anywhere that has static scales. Aka weigh in motion. The first few times it did not work I'm assuming that's because the scales needed to get us in the system. But after that. It's flawless.

It used to work just fine until a couple of weeks ago. It either doesn't pick up the scales at all or it says " WEIGH STATION 2 MILES". That's it. No bypass or follow signs. Updated it AGAIN yesterday. Still doesn't work. I think I'll be Uninstalling and canceling my subscription.

I finally had enough. Besides the FAKE positive reviews on here I can't stand the broken English customer service. Now the app is allowed to turn itself on whenever it comes near a weigh station. What if I'm not in my truck? I don't want it to turn on in my personal vehicle. The music mute problem was NEVER addressed and who knows what data they're sharing of ours.

I like it a lot, but I do not like that it literally pops up (as it should) but then it closes out of my GPS or minimizes it. It also mutes my music or podcast, then it lowers the volume, then I turn up the volume to be able to hear and then I'll get the ByPass notification and the original volume returns and Scares the hell out of me.

app starts on its own for now reason for the past 3 weeks. please fix this issue

I have to repost my review because it seems DriveWise is finally getting their act together. I was stuck with their bypass system and had no options but to use it. for three months it was nothing but a headache but now it's finally starting to work. I'm still not 100% with it but it looks like they may actually get it to work the way it was designed to given enough time. still a lot of weigh stations and Port of entries that don't use DriveWise though

I use prepass ( the real deal) for years, have an rate of bypass of 95%, switch to drivewyze and bypass rate was 3% !!! Total waste of time, here apply ....you get what you pay for...back to real deal again and get the usual bypass rate, i run a dedicated line so same scales for both, prepass and drivewyze..... i never read the reviews before switch ....

I've been using Drivewyze for 5+ years and absolutely love it. I was the instrumental in the company I'm leased to getting Drivewyze for the rest of their fleet. Recently I've been noticing that the app will close by itself and I have to check to make sure its running before I get to the scales. This is the reason I gave only 4 stars. Otherwise I would have given it a 5 star rating.

works great but needs the option to shut the sound off, it messes with the radio volume.

trying to log into my old account can't remember password and when use the password reset it says error and offers no further help.

Every time I try to input the DOT number , it throws a error. It is showing where the weigh stations are at but it is not showing rather or not to enter or bypass.

I'm paying for the service. allow me the ability to disable spam notifications of gas stations and exit rollover turn speeds I don't need that. allow people who are paying for your service to disable the things they don't need.

Great app when it works. Unfortunately when you try and update the picture for adding a photo, it errors out more often than not. Please fix this issue as it's not like this is a free to use app. Please do better.

Most times, this doesn't even recognize your close to a scale and then It says pull in unless closed. I get more warnings about rollover or curves and steep downgrades than I do going through the scales. I wish my company didn't replace my pre-pass with this app nonsense!

I gave it 5 stars because drivewyze is highly recommended tool for drivers on the road. the app on the phone works very well, however, I find it very annoying that the phone has to be unlocked to have the heads up and preclear. I feel like it should work all the time that the app is running that way if you don't notice a weight station it still warns you and decides to pull you in or not. either way great tool, very useful.

PLEASE fix the sound problem! Just as everyone has said, it completely hijacks your sound at a root level so you can't control it at all, and your music or whatever you were listening to is permanently quiet until to close and restart the apps. Please fix this..or at least give us an option to turn off sound in the app completely..at least that would be a partial fix. It's SOO annoying. It's made me turn off all safety alerts..

The app works. But first off you can't turn off the notification sound. And two it's always running. The reason I bring this up is when you're using your cell phone to run this. These two things make it annoying to use. Other than that the app works as it should. But I don't like things I can't turn off when not in use. And I don't like my music or audiobooks interrupted by a bybass noise when I can visually see that I got the the bypass or have to pull in to the weigh station.

Everything works great except for one problem: when notifications come up from this app, it lowers your volume temporarily. but sometimes it doesn't come back up. you also can't turn it back up manually. this only affects the phones media playing but not the notification sounds. so you'll try to turn your music up to compensate and then suddenly you get a glaringly loud notification or navigation instructions and it's so loud,it hurts your ear. only fix is another Drivewyze notification. Maybe.
