Drivewise Canada

Don’t even know how this is legal. Awful company, awful app, shocking service.

App is not designed well, it will assumed harsh braking even you put the brake lightly. I think since it’s going to measure your driving with wrong algorithms it will be not be fair to consider a discount parameter. I think designing such an app requires a lot of data to be ingested to make analytical decisions, since they detect light braking as harsh that denotes they don't have enough driving data and decision made on insufficient datasets could lead to wrong interpretations which why this app is horrible.

Yes, I used it 4 years ago, just realized I was not getting the promised discount all along. Prompted to signup again. Thus, my 46 years impeccable driving records (Zero accidents) didn’t count to any discount. My safety been alert and my breaking measures prompt to disqualify me for a discount. Selling vehicle discount does not apply. Removing second driver also could affect rating. This App. Is invasive to your privacy on your back and location at all times or not! When driving the posted speed limit you putting yourself and others on the road at higher risk by been run off by other drivers especially on the 400’s series highways, nevertheless, inter city highways not better off. It become too dangerous with drive wise app. and picking on users at all time so they do not get the discount. So I opt-out before I become complicit and worse a victim. I propose a new name: (The black hole ride not so wise) where one would don’t see the light of the day. Do yourself a favour, stay-a-live and write an honest review!

Please stay away from this piece of junk and make your lives easier because not only this app distracts you while driving it also gives you false discount till the last day, I was over 28% discount for the whole time and on the last day it calculated at 15% which is ridiculous. I would recommend to stay away!! I forgot to add the worst thing about this app is if your phone rings or you get a text message it counts as phone usage even if you do not touch your phone which it says for informational purposes but I don’t think so, I am so annoyed that I got into this scam feels so cheated.

The braking count is confusing but pl ignore and drive as usual carefully. I got 6 consecutive 30%s inspite of braking counts (upto 12 max in a month), zero speeding kms and a lot of phone usage (bluetooth calls counted). So overall i am very happy. Donno how exactly this final 30% honored during next renewal but will update here.

Filled in address in my places section, does not memorize the application, only leaves its example. At the beginning and end of movement, it writes that I touch the screen 1 time, although I keep the phone in my bag. And so every trip. iOS 17.4.1

This app is garbage. Multiple times I’ve been marked for harsh braking in the middle of a long stretch of road, without slowing down at all.

I see a lot of reviews about it not being accurate but I’ve been using it for almost a month now and everything is accurate. I don’t have any issues with “hard braking” like other people have said. Only thing I have to complain about is if you have CarPlay, it will say you used your phone, even if you didn’t touch it or the screen that controls it. You can be parked in your driveway and it will say you used ur phone. So that’s one really annoying part that needs to be fixed. Other than that, everything else works great!

Only issue is that when you are done your drive and leave the car, the app still thinks you are driving and records that you handled your phone. There should be a button to indicate drive is over or getting gas. I used my phone to tap for gas and got dinged for phone usage.

dont ever trust this app
