I like to see the numbers.😊
Invasion of privacy
The app itself works fine. However the need to always track my location is a huge invasion of privacy. Location data for everywhere where I am going, even when I am not driving is tremendously invasive. There needs to be a setting to only have location data available when using the app. This can also impact me since I do not have CarPlay. So my phone has to be on to navigate and this impacts me on my ratings.

Fun too track
This app is incredibly inacurate
This app thinks everything is a hard brake. I have literally driven to the store and back with no red lights, no stop signs and still got “hard brakes” when slowing for traffic.
Almost Perfect
I’ve been using DriveMyWay (and the former KnowYourDrive) for around 8 years. I was delighted to see that fast acceleration was removed, but the Hard Break penalty either needs revamped or removed. I try my best to not ride my breaks or slam on the breaks for no good reason. It makes me feel like I should soft break no matter what & that’s an issue as there are times I NEED to hard break to avoid an accident. If hard breaking is the only penalty on a drive, I should be able to identify it as a necessity or not. The only better option would be to remove it all together.
Great way to improve driving!
At first I was not sold but am glad I enrolled. It isn’t perfect and needs some adjusting but overall I have been pleased with how it has made me a better driver. It needs to have a comment section on each drive so feedback can be given to make the app better.
Incorrect Data
The app incorrectly calculates data. I have contacted support and they haven’t been able to resolve the issue. I may remove the app. The MORE OPTIONS doesn’t resolve anything. Stop telling people to click here and provide real solutions. Your troubleshooting recommendations need to improve.
App Works Well Most of the Time
It’s great! I definitely prefer this version over the previous one. I appreciate that I can now close the app and it still records my trips. It doesn’t always accurately record trips, whether I’m driving or a passenger. Occasionally, it doesn’t record anything at all. When it does record my trips, it works very well, but I occasionally have to correct the record of whether I was driving or a passenger.
Very touchy app
Update: As soon as I reviewed this app, giving it 3 stars, suddenly my driving score went from 85% (good driver) to 79 (not so good). Whoever is reading these reviews is acting like a child. Stop! Original review: It’s a good idea, makes you aware that a driver shouldn’t be doing certain things while actively driving. However, it’s very touchy! If something falls on your phone, or if you touch the screen by mistake, it’s counted against the driver (I just came from a 10 mile trip where I didn’t touch the phone, yet the app says that I did. Go figure!). Also, if you break even slightly hard to prevent an accident, it’s counted against the driver, regardless of the fact that he or she might have saved American Family Insurance tens of thousands of dollars in damages/repairs. Other than that, this app is fine.
Hard breaking
I am writing to provide constructive feedback regarding a specific feature within your application. While I generally appreciate the utility of the app, I've consistently observed that the hard braking detection system appears to be exceptionally sensitive. It frequently registers what I would consider to be standard, controlled braking actions – typical in everyday driving conditions – as instances of 'hard braking.' This sensitivity often leads to inaccurate classifications, which subsequently affects the driving analytics and scores provided by the app. From a user perspective, this can be a source of frustration, as it doesn't always reflect actual driving behavior or distinguish between abrupt, unsafe stops and necessary, albeit firm, deceleration. Improving the calibration or refining the algorithm for this feature would significantly enhance the accuracy and overall user experience. Perhaps introducing adjustable sensitivity settings or a more nuanced interpretation of deceleration patterns could be beneficial. Thank you for considering this feedback.

Junk app
Spotless driving record. Never been in an accident and somehow get hard braking in a drive through. What gives? Truly a disappointing app to feed to your customers. Maybe look at driving records instead. Absolutely garbage if you live in a big city. Don’t drive defensively because then you have a bad driving score. It’s like the company wants you to get in wrecks driving like a moron to sustain a good score. Better insurance companies out there who respect their customers and don’t make them jump through hoops like a circus clown for a disappointing discount. Maybe give honest insurance rates instead of this BS.

I think the hard brake is to sensitive, like stoping for some red lights, it encourages running yellow lights. GPS and posted speed limits are not always the same.
I liked the old app better
I liked the old app better
think it’s great & very easy
what an way way to save $$ and appreciate your safe driving abilities.
Annoying
Hate the app requirement of always sharing my location. Auto insurance should track VEHICLE movement.
Driving app
I have an issue with the Harding braking because it’s unavoidable when an animal or another vehicle unexpectedly crosses your path.
Annoyingly helicoptering
This app constantly requires maintenance and reminds you of ITS’ changes, not how I drive. I update this at least four times a week, but when I reset it they don’t stay in the app🤨 peeved.
Mr. J
This app helps you think about your driving and it even can save you money.
Brakes
I liked the previous app American family used. Ever since it changed to this, every yellow light I brake to is a hard brake. It’s almost better if I ran the yellow if I’m near the intersection. Dramatically reduced my score even though my driving isn’t any better or worse. My rates doubled based on these false data.
Handsome
It works
Charges apply read before you join.
You are charged the 15% back if you delete the app even after the introductory time. I just got hit with a $203 bill unexpectedly. The corporate workers didn’t even know the terms. I was lied to, Imo. They said there was no fee charged if you complete the 99 trips. Read the terms well. Don’t get hit with unexpected charges!
Great App
I have found this app to be enlightening and helpful. I am convinced it is helping me be more safe.
Excuse to raise premiums
American Family’s driving app creates unhealthy behavioral incentives by over-emphasizing a numerical score. The result is not better driving, but score obsession. Rather than reinforcing calm, practical judgment, the app encourages fixation on preserving a metric, leading to unnecessary stress, inefficient workarounds, and distorted decision-making that can actually increase distraction instead of reducing it. More concerning is that this structure appears designed with full awareness that most users will not meaningfully benefit. When only a small subset can realistically optimize the score, the program functions less as a safety tool and more as a pricing mechanism—providing justification to raise premiums for the collective while marketing “discounts” few will consistently achieve. Safety programs should be built to improve behavior at scale, not to exploit behavioral psychology in ways that create anxiety, non-participation, or predictable underperformance. As designed, this app prioritizes optics and pricing leverage over genuine safety outcomes.
Savings
This app has turned me into a better safer driver. I am so grateful for what it saves me financially. And I do enjoy the challenge of trying to get the highest rating that I can on this app, just for the fun of it.
severe standby battery drain
According to my iPhone 13 mini, this app is responsible for ~20% of my battery usage on a normal day. Uninstalling the app makes a huge difference in battery life.
Super way to savr money
Great and easy app to use great customer support!
