  1. [R5] MacroPoint For Truckers 5/5 · US Great App, Too Much Tracking: The app works well and does what it’s supposed to do. It’s easy to use and reliable. My only concern is the amount of driver tracking. As drivers, we’re already getting multiple calls and update the brokers throughout the day, so the extra tracking can feel unnecessary and excessive. Other than that, it’s a solid app.
  2. [R6] MacroPoint For Truckers 3/5 · US No loads: I need to work like everyone else please help me out

  10. [R14] MacroPoint For Truckers 4/5 · US tracking all the time: UPDATE. TRACKS YOU SEVERAL DAYS AFTER IT SAY "Tracking stop" . SO SEVERAL UPDATES LATER STILL THE SAME.

  13. [R19] MacroPoint For Truckers 1/5 · US Tracking is stupid: If a broker wants to track a load, they can do so with a dedicated, stand alone device. There is no reason they need to track a driver through their personal cell phone
  14. [R21] MacroPoint For Truckers 1/5 · US Fake reviews: No trucker in their right mind would be ok with having tracking software on their personal devices. If brokers want to track their loads then provide YOUR OWN tracking devices - you don’t get to charge a fee to companies for not allowing and compromising our privacy. This should be illegal and politicians have failed us for not keeping brokers in check. This app is full of fake revie

  18. [R65] Trucker Path 4/5 · US Fix problems: This is really annoying. After every phone restart, the app demands new payment and doesn't work in the paid version for about 10 minutes. · translated
  19. [R15] MacroPoint For Truckers 1/5 · US Not sure: Seems to work OK while you have a load but I’ve delivered loads to three weeks ago that are still hanging around on there. They obviously don’t care to clear them out once they’re done they do not need to be hanging around.
  20. [R33] MacroPoint For Truckers 2/5 · US TruckDriver: Hey DRIVERS!!! Pay Attention to When ya complete a load even after using mark load complete tab and submitting, Had a load completed on a tuesday morning that kept tracking thru the weekend.

  23. [R66] Trucker Path 3/5 · US Trucker path is ok: The app is okay… it can sometimes put you on a better route then co pilot ( work gps ) but this app has sent me on some crazy streets and also when I’m on the route it is showing it will constantly say “recalculating” all in all it has some good features especially for scales being opened or closed so you know what you are in for up ahead also putting in the dynamics and dimens
  24. [R72] Trucker Path 3/5 · US that's really bad: I select a route, but it turns out the navigator changes it on its own while I'm driving, that's really bad.
