Ratings and reviews

The app requires permission to send notifications and set alarms on my phone. I don't want the app to change anything on my phone, but if I don't give permission to change the alarm, it doesn't work. On iPhone, the API does not provide access to the alarm, and the app works without it. On Android, tracking stops working if you only give permission to access your location.

it is the most widely used tracking app and it used to work great. the thing that grinds my gears is the app has 1 method to stop tracking when it goes rogue and trips itself. the 3 dots when looking at a broker tracking drops a menu. select pause track and it brings up another menu that at the end has end tracking button, but I click it and done and the spinny confused buffer wheel spins forever as if it doesn't understand. i have to go to location settings now and force it to stop tracking me.

You should never post this while installing the app. "Granting this permission WON'T give the application access to your personal information." For many drivers, it's forced into us by customers or brokers to run this app. As I mentioned before. It's supposed to be an app to track the load, not to collect personal information like my birthday , my name, or Android Advertising ID, etc. My security app. so far, blocked 703,373 hidden tracking attempts in last 7 days. Including yours.
