About this app

Welcome to Mentor℠ by eDriving, a comprehensive digital driver risk management system. 

Mentor identifies and remediates risky driver behavior with the FICO® Safe Driving Score, a predictive scoring system, to highlight risks, suggest dynamic training modules, and support a safe community space. Mentor highlights drivers’ strengths and areas where they may need to improve. Mentor will also use driving patterns to recommend Playlist modules and responsive notifications to reinforce safe-driving behaviors.  

Drivers can easily view risky behaviors that contribute to their overall driving safety. Mentor also recognizes safe, eco-friendly driving and encourages community building as a part of its Crash-Free Culture® — all from a privacy-first, data-secure platform and supported with unsurpassed professional services. 

Mentor’s key benefits to drivers and their managers include:  

- Easy-to-use, highly secure smartphone/tablet environment.  
- Validated and predictive scoring of driver risk with FICO Safe Driving Score.  
- Responsive, interactive, multimedia Playlist using micro-training (< 5 minutes long), short quizzes, and responsive notifications.  
- Highest levels of privacy protection and data security.  
- In-app manager coaching toolkit to support high-risk drivers.  
- Collaborative environment for drivers and managers to share best practices informally.  

Mentor is NOT a driver surveillance or tracking tool or a phone tracker or blocker. Instead, Mentor is designed to help drivers reduce their risk on the road and for managers to support and sustain a focused mission objective across their teams – to return drivers home safely at the end of each day!

Ratings and reviews

I wonder which of the 2 prescripted responses I will get? App needs work. If your car auto stop/starts and youre wirelessly charging your phone it will count it as phone manipulation. If your phone slides in a cup holster or in your bag it's phone manipulation. Driving the speed limit (80mph) in rural areas? Then the phone alarms that you are driving too fast and records it at 84 mph. Can't use an acceleration ramp to be near higher speed limit areas without alarm for speeding. Needs an update.

If you like ubiquitous surveillance, and having a tattle tale in your back pocket, then this obnoxious app is for you! They should partner with the police, call it rat, and send out tickets via an AI agent. It always prompts me to stop driving before interacting with my phone, but the clincher is that this happens while in line at a cafe or walking around. It gives no feedback as towards improvements and always gives me a good score even though I do not drive well. My phone keeps dying too.

Everyone I work with agrees that the app is super buggy and is very slow to complete basic functions. The FICO score accuracy is very questionable too. Just about everyday I get a "phone manipulation" while driving despite the phone being in the back of the car, in a cradle. I've emailed eDriving with my feedback, but they are unwilling to address their issues. The idea of the app sounds good, but it falls very short of functioning as described.
