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 🙄
Reviews for Drivewyze: Tools for Truckers
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.
