There needs to be a way to disable the weigh station alerts. They constantly pop up 10 miles before and after a weigh station. It's very distracting.
Please fix the "Weigh-Station Involuntary Pop-Up" Window. It keeps popping up after you swipe it away or after you pass the weigh station.. Very distracting and maddening. Otherwise, the app is much improved..! Worth a try or a retry. Working well. Very pleased.
Just updated and even worse than before.. I appreciate the notification of a scale but to go off none stop in no pattern 10miles before the scale while at the scale then showing me moving away from the scale keeps going off for 10miles. The navigation couldn't tell me to take the exit I needed beacuse the alrt for the scale I already passed.Keeps crashing and will put me in a neighborhood that I'm passing on the interstate
It is OK, but the interface for the directions is rather primitive, with very limited capabilities: e.g, you cannot modify the route, or add stops/search along the route, as you can in G-maps. A big problem: every time the app goes into background, it looses the navigation screen., and you have to start all over again.
Horrible if you drive in big cities. It does not give exit names or freeway numbers only go right ahead then left type directions. Plus weigh station alerts can't be dismissed so I just keeps ringing and ringing
Update - app maps is no longer working. Put in addresses and it is just a white screen. Can not do anything except to cancel. Tried restarting phone. No change. Looked for an update. None since Sept. Guess I will have to find another app. Too bad, this was a very helpful app I have only used it for the directions. It is simple to use. It HAS brought our tractor trailer on a dirt road, but as always you must verify your route first. All the road labels (no trucks etc) are awesome. No ads either.
I can't believe apps like Google Maps and Waze don't have an option to avoid parkways. TruckBook came through in the clutch when I rented a cargo van and needed to avoid roads with commercial restrictions. My only complaint is that the live traffic feature doesn't seem to be as accurate as other apps.
The app is ok, but it's geared to the US market. All of the measurements are in imperial, with no option to switch to the metric system (come on, you're only one of three countries that still use imperial). Developer is NOT RESPONSIVE to email inquiries. Looses GPS signal quite often. This appears to be more of an app that appeals to hotshot transportation rather than mainstream truckers.
Decent app. Transitions between interstate highways needs improvement.
They have improved the app a lot, they just need it to work in real time like Google maps, thanks.
Love the app. Been great at helping me trip plan and find parking spots. However today when I went to use it there was an update now message. When I clicked on it it to me to the app store. Where the options were to unisntall or open. After a reinstall when opened the update option screen reappears. Have tried a few times to Uninstaller and reinstall but keep getting the update now and taken to the store cycle. Besides that. Best app I ever used for trip planning.
Over all it's not bad it will sometimes want to go out of the way to an address or go the long way the highway. It wants me to turn down residential roads through towns and it has even wanted me to turn ar few low bridges lucky I have a little common sense lol. And when it wants me to take an exit it won't say the exit name same it will just say keep right on highway. But other than that it's not to bad I use it everyday side by side with google maps
Best of all time actually thare should be a commercial truck GPS made off this App's directions. But there is one thing really disturbing, if you using the phone just a second. Goes off. it doesn't go on standby, you have to click on the app again and reclick the address.
Very helpful for a free App. The only issue that occurred is that sometimes it will detour you off of your Route for no reason. It does this by having you get off of the highway to go around a couple of exits and then it has you back onto the same highway
Its a good app but sometimes it will take you down roads that are clearly marked Not a truck route, if it has to reroute or recalculate once or twice it freaks out and I have close the app to restart the route, and some of the maps are outdated too.
Maps used to work great. Now when I put in my destination I get a black screen for the map. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, still get the same result.
Really a good app. Sometimes it buffers when you start but maybe it's my phone. Other than that I never had any problems with it as far as getting lost or it taken me on wrong turns.
Very precise! This is the all in one app, everything in one simple application that, in my opinion, beats all the rest I've used! I recommend this app to all of my driver buddies out there who continuously have issues with thier high dollar Rand McNallies etc etc.
Before the update, the app would lose GPS signal if the app went into the background. Sometimes I would need to exit the current trip and start over.
Still needs a lot of improvement, its slow and needs few features added like showing services or feul stops along routes and being able to set them as side stops. But I do love the quality of it
Data eater for sure so if ur not on unlimited data plan its not for u
This app started out being the best gps for truckers. The last week it wont do squat. The screen is all white or its black. Nothing else. Are y'all fixing the problem or not. If it still worked I would give it 10 stars.
Route to instruction is not a 100%
So far it has been pretty accurate, if you go to the app settings you can turn off the notifications, I don't need to know every time someone posts a thought. The map view is crystal clear.
Great job on the truckers app love it
Very nice app just one problem waight station alert keep coming even when you past
Would be nice if we could get the construction zones and speed limit. Even just to crowd source it like the stations and truck stops. Overall a very good app
As an OTR Trucker, I've never been able to use the map without the screen going blank or some other issue. It isn't my phone, the Google app for cars works just fine. I'll just buy a Garmin next check. I guess the joke's on me.
Too many glitches and freezing when in route
The directions a very good but could be better. They will often take you to the administrative entrance instead of shipping and receiving. The weigh station alerts bug out and you have to restart the app. I wish I could see step by step directions to get an idea of my route before I start driving. The important thing is that this app always keeps me on safe streets based on the profile of my rig. I wish the single trailer would default to 53' instead of 70' though.
