Me
Worst app EVER use MOTIVE instead Call them tons to resolve issues they can’t resolve. One issue after the other. Use Motive, I promise it’s better, wish my new employer would switch!
Would be 5 stars but
Sometimes the app crashes for no reason or gives error codes when there are none Overall a good app I’d prefer paper logs
Location
Don’t give the exact location of the place you stop, give a far location from you are
New update is broken
The new update makes everything bearly noticeable when my iPhone 7 is in dark mode. I shouldn’t have to adjust my phones display settings to use the app properly. Please fix
Help
Other than being better on Apple than Android, it’s been in a “dark mode” for a few months. I’ve deleted tonight and reinstalled hoping it would take care of the issue.... I wasn’t right😞
Rarely keeps me logged out
After I submit my log and log off duty, the next day it says I’m still on duty. So at least once a week (usually more) I have to edit my logs. It is very annoying.
How about making it so you can do an inspection on a truck or trailer that is not in the system?
I would give it 5 stars if you could do an inspection on a truck or trailer that isn’t preloaded into the system. I know it is legal because we do it for another company I work for with another system. I am trying to get them to use this, but, they may pull other companies trailers, so this won’t work for them. At least not now.
Exact time
Using exact time on my app when logging out isn’t working anymore. Everything shows it’s going through fine, but when I check my time on tablet it’s logging me out at that moment instead of in the future. Really frustrating
So so system
I’m not impressed with this system. It has logged me as driving several times while I was in the bunk asleep which has made me stay longer than I should have on a ten hour break. And service people are nice but no help in this matter they tell you to make a notation and go to paper logs and cannot or will not just fix the glitch by changing the log back to sleeper or off duty. I was happier with the Bluetree system.
Never give up
Works great, love the way it shows all the clocks (11/14/70).
Software is frustrating
This thing will log you out a dozen times a day, even if you haven’t touched your phone. Maddening
Decent app.
Most of the flaws in this app are acceptable. Bugs will always happen, but they generally get addressed. One design problem I have is with the night mode on the iPhone version. It needs to be a black background like the android version, instead of just dimming too much...
Wait
When coming to a stop, have to wait between 10-27 seconds to go to main screen. Total B.S. ! Have had other issues too.
The app will log off without notice.
The app logs off without you even knowing. I’ve updated the app every time there’s an update, and it still has glitches.
Good product
Easy to use. Seems to get better every update
Ain’t worth a darn

Inspections have NOT been submitted in months, I don’t know why. Logs off randomly through out the day.
Continues to glitch
Can’t certify logs, doesn’t update as it should, doesn’t keep accurate miles my miles are always more than tracked, occasionally logs out randomly but haven’t had this issue for a few months now so assuming that’s fixed.nope it’s not fixed.back to closing out and won’t open up completely keeps closing app can’t even log back in cmon this isn’t rocket science I’ve seen game apps more tech advanced with less issues. you got middle schoolers writing the programs?
ELD
This ELD doesn’t allow you to take the shorter end of the sleeper berth break first. You must take a 8 hour break first. This ELD is not compliant with FMCSA new rules. It will not pause your 14 hour clock after taking a 2 hour break.
Crashes
The app itself is well designed and easily navigated. It’s fairly simple to use and straightforward. However, after two days of continuous use without any problems the application crashes. The app will load and as you are prompted to sign in, the usual notification will appear before shutting down. Once it starts crashing it will continue to do it every time I attempt to open the app until I am forced delete and reinstall. This causes a problem because any logs not submitted are deleted and lost for good. I only have this issue running the app with iOS on my iPhone 12. I first downloaded the app using Google Play on the Galaxy Note 9 and had no problems whatsoever for a year. It was not until I switched to the iPhone 12 that I started hating the Encompass app.
Slow system
System or program takes to long to allow changes in status.
Activation
How do I get an activation code
Complete garbage
What’s the point of using ELD’s because drivers can’t be trusted to be honest with logs, when you constantly have to edit the ELD logs because this app does whatever it wants whenever. Convenient features: it disregards your logout just I case you’d like to do some CMV driving while you’re at home sleeping. Randomly logs out while you are on the clock actively working just in case you’re actually not and forgot to log out.
Please fix dark mode support
Not sure what happened with the latest update but the dark mode support is seriously flawed. I can’t see any of the important information in order to change time and date and input comments.
Horrible device and support
DO NOT USE THIS ELD!!!!! Today alone we have been on the phone 6 times with support. First, we were told they will not help us until the app is updated. Because of issues, they update their app almost weekly. The next 5 times, they were still unable to figure out the issues and had to escalate the ticket. We’ve had to do this previously and it took over two weeks to hear back. We were told they didn’t know what was really going on. In this instance, we were told they would get to the ticket in the order it came in. This should tell you something right there when they have numerous ‘escalated tickets’. Their support team is terrible. You may get one person who knows how to use their system out of 10. I’ve contacted our account rep and again, no help. We have been a customer since ELDs we’re mandated. This last year has been nothing but issue and after issue with each ELD we have. We run over 15 power units so this isn’t just a one off situation. I’ve also suggested that maybe the ELD box is malfunctioning and asked if we could try a new one. They said sure, but that I would have to pay for it. In the end, I hope you read this review and stay away from them. This ELD is nothing but problems. We will be transitioning to a new one as soon as the devices are shipped to me.

It is slow on change of duty status!
Last update
Since the last update the app crashes more than before. Also stays in the driver mode way to long. Also even if the truck isn’t moving the app claims it sees movement and won’t let me do anything. Put it back the way it was. It worked really good before the last update.
Encompass system
Wellll.. we started out with them thinking they would be the best since they’re the profitable arm of the DOT. They didn’t have their game together at all. As we’ve worked through the bugs, some of it has improved overall. For what we do (exemptions, short haul, etc), they’re not very compatible. We’re switching to another in hope of finding one better suited for our needs.
Horrible customer service
I switched from android to iOS while sitting still on 34 hour restart and it kicked me to driving with truck not running and sitting still and was told I shouldn’t of been moving when on app that was second time it has kicked me into driving on 34 hour costumer service was no help at all been 4 days and no one ever called me just sent email telling me I was in the wrong when I was sitting still if I could give zero stars I would

Don't get this. It requires a activation code to use...
