Useless on Android, does not automatically switch between drive and other work properly, way way better on iOS so I use it on an old iPhone 5. Also the last update was 2014!! that fix was supposed to resolve the GPS issue but it didn't.
used to be really good but since update has been frustrating, not changing mode to driving automatically, when on daily rest still logs driving and other work and puts multiple of each mode on the screen not very reliable at present.
need to be updated ESPECIALLY" STOPPING TIME DELAY" rest are good just need to fiddle around with app for a day or two and will get the idea . it can't really keep up with truck' actual tachograph app always mess up logs but you can manually adjust that later in u free time .
was very good. since the recent update to fix the GPS my GPS don't work. when I hold the phone still it switches to driving. when I start to drive even after 15 minutes driving it's still on other work. come on. sort it out.
I bought it and the very next day uninstalled it cos it was draining my battery too much, and it kept saying this app was developed for an earlier operating system and may not work properly. asked for a refund but no response from the developer...
Stopped countdown at 43 second, needs an update to work with later version of Android. No refund option either
Pretty good all round, a more straightforward way to manually adjust logs would be nice tho
I've used this app since getting my first smart phone in 2012 and highly recommend it.
Been using this app for years with no infringing , I just change modes manually 😁😁
Starting to break down now after years of neglect not a single software update
Out of date. This is a pointless download use another app
last update was 2014. don't pay for this as it was sold by the developer to people who obviously don't give a
Fix the app it doesn't work properly anymore
was brilliant but now unreliable!
Doesn't work with newer versions of android.
A few glitches but still useful
used to be a great app, it's totally baffled up now
Any updates for new versions of Android????
Ive been driving class 1 for 35 years and I have loved this app for over 5 years since going back to tramping. It really is the best thing out there. I will no longer use or recommend this app to anyone. I cant believe the owners cant solve the little GPS issues. Do not use this app till the problem is sorted.
I have been using this app for years now. its been a great tool for informing me of my used and remaining WTD & DRIVING times. But for a long time now, there has been NO updates and a lack of support. New owner is a waister. if they can't be bothered, then please sell it onto someone who isn't a completed waist of air on this planet. go and ruin some other app instead. SO DISAPPOINTED AFTER YEARS OF USE. now using TachoGuard instead.
Cannot really fault. There are occasional glitches (doesn't every app?!!) which are quickly fixed and the support (inc e-mail exchange ) is excellent. It does have a peculiar file type but that may be me not being a computer nerd and I have never properly made use of saving or transferring files. Overall, HIGHLY RECOMMEND and wouldn't be without. Just wish employers would be more aware and make use of the sister app 'Daily Defects.
When I have 15 mins poa the wtd continuous work resets to 6 hours this is not correct as poa should not be taken into account as a break. In the same way when I have 45 mins poa the continous driving resets to 4.5 hours. Ps have not selected poa as break in settings
Loved this app but since upgrading from my old S3 to a 2016 A5 the GPS speed reading fails to come down to zero when stopped which negates the whole point of the app. No reply from developer on this issue so now searching for an app that works from a developer that's interested.
Used properly, this app will look after you. You absolutely must remember to use it everyday. It can be configured for just about everything. The only thing I can criticise is there is no way to indicate a holiday or period of sickness in the app. Which may just come down to your employers records.
Does more than I could have imagined. Gives you everything you need to know. Really does take the hassle out of working out your hours. Only thing I'd like to see is on the daily summary be able to see the vehicle registration and one line of your notes.
Used this for many years, with good results, but on starting to reuse it again after returning to driving, many annoying and disappointing features have appeared. One in particular, if you split your daily breaks into a 15 min followed by a 30min prior to your first 4 hours 30 driving time, app does not reset to give you your second 4.30hr driving time. Just turns red and says you've exceeded your daily driving limit. So for the second half of the driving day renders app pretty much useless.
