DriveTrend

I just started using this to save a little money on insurance (which just went up - again). The app has me as hard braking on shirt trip to town I just took and I didn’t even brake where it says I did. Also has me speeding at 50 in a 45 and that road does not have a lowered limit anywhere on it. This information they gather is NOT accurate. I’m sure they will use this as an excuse to not give me any savings on insurance. Tomorrow begins the search for another insurance company.

By far worse app i have ever used. The developer needs to find another business cause clearly they don’t know anything about applications. Rarely gets updated then once it does get updated it’s worse than the previous versions.

I have problems with this app. I called customer support and they said it was the apple update. Sure wished it worked better.

I decided to install this in order to get a discount on my car insurance with Farm Bureau and it is the most useless app I’ve ever downloaded! It worked accurately for about one month and now I can’t open it to see anything!! It just spins and spins and spins, showing that it’s trying to do SOMETHING but nothing happens. Then I get a notification that there has been no activity for a week when I drive at least 20 miles a day. Now my insurance will go up again because I haven’t used the app, even though I’m TRYING to use it - it’s not working!!!! Come on, Farm Bureau. It’s 2023. Get it together. Hire quality developers. I’ve deleted and reinstalled this app multiple times hoping to get it to work. Even my insurance agent can’t seem to help. NOT HAPPY WITH THIS! 😡

App keeps locking up and has to be uninstalled and reinstalled. App design is terrible. I ride to work with someone so I’m constantly having to go in and ignore trips. There should be a pop up that asks if you are the driver or passenger every time the app starts to log a trip. That would be way more user friendly.

I almost exclusively drive in the dark during the week, between early mornings and late nights, I get a zero on night time driving, my other scores are at around 3-4 stars but my overall is 1 and a half? Terrible rating system.

This app is extremely bad for battery life, a 15 minute drive drains over 10% of my battery but the same drive with the app disabled didn’t change battery percentage. The accuracy monitoring speed and location is not good. It would tell me I had been speeding but hadn’t been but then trying to test when I knew was over it didn’t capture it. If you are going to use this app to help monitor drivers for accountability it needs to be more accurate. If you claim it is to help you become a better driver it needs to give you feedback. Now that I am out of the period where it learns my driving it no longer provides me the feedback. Apparently the data only goes to whomever is monitoring you.

I’ve used this app for over 300 miles now and it gives me a 1 star driving rating. 4 1/2 stars on local speed, 5 stars on highway speed, and 4 stars on hard braking. 0 stars on nighttime driving so I get a 1 star rating overall. I’m always driving at night, is that illegal? No, so why is my score 0 for driving at night, when my overall speeds are good! I don’t understand it!

It wants access to basically be “on” all the time. It won’t work unless app is given that access. I don’t need a nanny for my driving. It’s not worth the discount Farm Bureau is offering to use this app.

I’ve been using drivetrend for 2 years and no issues. Saving money on my automobile insurance!!
