Geotab Drive for Android
The company I work for decided this was the best app ever. When it works it's alright but about 25% of the time it's a complete waste of money. Driving works when it feels like it. The login process can take so much time I'd rather unplug the damn thing.
easy to manipulate.first off I can un plug it from ecm and safety can't see what I'm doing it doesn't alert them the eld is unplugged.also I cam turn off location settings on phone and the eld doesn't pick up my location.then when I have a change of duty status I can manually enter in the city and state.again safety Has no knowledge that I am doing this.also when i drive eld doesnt know I'm driving...example I went to sleeper birth and drove 2 more hours.lots of other issues.no room to list them here.
Based on FMCSA. Rules state that I have to have documentation how to operate geotab how to transfer information to an officer and documents to an officer. There is no option to do so.
Logs do not work correctly unless the phone or tablet is plugged in to a power source, cigarette lighter. The geolocator is not activated unless plugged in.
Great way to track a fleet
Constantly crashing. Has no idea I'm moving or not. Constantly switches between off-duty and on-duty while doing 65mph. Can't edit non-driving entries. No way to email or fax logs if requested by DOT. No roadside audit mode. Can't see remaining hours while driving. No DOT quick reference guide. In other words, garbage that can cost you a load of money during an inspection or audit.
We have yet to hear back on our exemption yet. Constant emails and calls and sending the rule to you guys and haven't heard anything yet

I have a suggestion. It would be helpful to be able to change some of my on duty time to off duty for my 30 minute break. For example, sometimes when I pull up to a dock I will go on duty not knowing that I will have to sit there for 45 minutes and could have used that for my 30 minute break but at that point I have no way of going back and changing it like you can with a paper log. I know other logging systems give you that option.
Sucks does not reset the 60 hour rule...piece of crap
We rely on GeoTab to provide GPS tacking for a fleet of commercial delivery vehicles. We experienced a GeoTab outage at the beginning the week. After multiple support calls & email per day, (no human ever answered.) GeoTab NEVER replied to our numerous PLEADS for support . If the service was free & a game I would not take the time to comment. GeoTab is NOT FREE or a GAME. Please get it together GeoTab.
It was working till it got update on Friday and it crashed. Please fix the problem I really like it.
Best value of any HOS app. Great value. Use through Sprint which provides great support.
Tried working with them for weeks, but had to give up after they just refused to actually provide anything resembling customer support. Great concept, a lot of potential, but with no customer service it is all in vain.
Works great on my GalaxyS5. The HOS is simple to use and understand. DVIR is good too.
Clean install, user-friendly.
Does not work on 3.2.2 android
Great HOS DVIR solution . looking forward to being compliant with Canadian rules as well.
Will not work on my Samsung tab 10.2. Awful app
Great when it works! Installed 5 Samsung Tablet 2's and downloaded your app to run HOS for commercial drivers with plans on installing in 20 more vehicles. 3 of the 5 units were in use Friday evening 08-30-13, all 3 in use crashed!
Will not work on my Samsung tab 10.2. Awful app
Great driving app! Easy to use and works well keeping track of hours automatically and performing vehicle inspections is a quick
Love it...
I like this app. It's easy and looks pretty nice with big buttons) Especially I like graph)
Looks good. Now just need to point to the right site.
Excited to see this on here already!

The app changes duty status on it's own. Switches from Driving to On Duty not Driving as I am driving down the road. It also goes to a black screen requiring you to click an X the click a box with a 4 digit number in order to get to HOS screen. These things happen intermittently. I have uninstalled and reinstalled app numerous times. Any suggestions?
