Motive Driver Customer Insights

1. It doesn't change status to driving so when I get to my destination, I find out that it's been on off-duty the entire time even though the screen showed driving.

2. It's also slow, often taking a full second to respond to a basic screen press when every other app on the same device runs right.This eld is horrible.

3. I hate this software but I'm forced to use it.When I go to review my safety issues, it pops up on my screen for 1 second and screen goes blank for a few seconds then popos back up for 1 second.

4. Will update to 5 stars when fixed.Stupid app is always disconnecting from the truck when my screen turns off, even though I have all permissions enabled, and set to never put the app to sleep.

5. Never sign up for Motive.Less than one star! App constantly locks you in drive / in motion mode, and does not allow you to have access to change.

6. Half the time when you try to upload a document, it won't let you select the document type after you take the picture, which of course means you can't upload the document.

7. Great app, but the last update made the timers super small and hard to read at a glance while driving.

8. It also logs me out every time dispatch is changing something and my password gets reset.

9. Press on a key (button) and it acts like it is locked up, but it's just being stupidly slow to respond.

10. It is impossible to figure out how to change trailers mid route, and exemption statuses are even harder to find.

11. We've had multiple issues with it being incredibly slow or just not working at all.
