In general, the app has increased my awareness of my driving habits and made me a safer driver. However, I have experimented with the app and found some unrealistic results. I found that normal stopping at 35 mph for a red light in response to the warning yellow results in a penalty for excessive braking. I've found similar results for normal acceleration following a stop for a traffic light. There is no penalty for going through a red light, only for braking quickly to stop for the red light.

My only real issue with this app is that it's reporting hardbreaking in situations that there was never any hardreaking at all. I don't know what algorithm it uses to determine this but today for example I was on a clear road. I never hard broke and it said that I had a severe heartbreak for 4.3 seconds.
