Ratings and reviews

The app gives you a low score on cornering if you don't apply your brakes first. Seriously? If I'm making a left turn at a green light when I'm already yielding the right-of-way, I'm not going to apply my brake while I'm turning and risk a car behind me rear-ending me. Making turns at a slow speed should be sufficient enough. The app's overall scoring system is also flawed. A score of 396/400 somehow only averages out to 79. I know there are probably weighted variables, but they aren't defined.

Requires location permission, trip tracking, motion sensing, and unrestricted background battery use. The whole point of the program is that there is a tracker on my actual car to track GPS and miles. Plus, I'm not the only one who drives my car, so these permissions are pointless and ridiculous. In addition, the whole program has been a total mess so far. Took a month to receive the tracker device, and now it is not even working. That's right, no trips are being recorded from the car's tracker. The web site and app are full of dead links, customer service only responds about half the time, etc.

For those folks that have chosen to pay the extra money Utah charges for owning an EV (yes, we pay MORE than ICE owners), this is your app. Unfortunately it is buggy, slow, uninformative, and truly awful in all parts of its implementation. Start well ahead of your photo due date, because it is possible to get very frustrated with this trash app and walk away.
