User Reviews

Users overall find Road Buddy useful for tracking driving hours, including for teen driving, and enjoy the gamification. However, recurring issues across reviews include mandatory location tracking, GPS inaccuracies leading to nonsensical miles or speeds, data loss and backup problems, lack of manual time entry, and a timer auto-pause feature that can lose time. Some praise the app's time-tracking reliability and the ability to earn rewards, but the frequent data and privacy concerns, plus missing features, drive calls for fixes and improvements.

Pros

Strong time-tracking that logs driving hours.
Useful for parents to monitor teen driving hours.
Gamification features with points that can lead to gift cards.

Cons

Requires location services to be always on, even when the app isn’t in use.
GPS/location data can be inaccurate, showing impossible speeds or teleported miles.
Backups and data persistence are unreliable: drives can disappear or fail to save.
No manual log/time entry option to add drives.
Auto-pause feature stops the timer after 3 minutes of inactivity and can’t be disabled.

Recent reviews

This app is pretty decent. I read some reviews that say if you shut off your phone, it doesn’t record the hours, but that’s not true at all. That’s all I do. I would recommend this app to others. My only issue is backing up the drives. I feel like I shouldn’t have to back them up when they’re supposed to just stay there you know?

When you start a drive if you do anything to like shut off your phone it like doesn’t count the hours/minutes also when you get out of the app it does that to so now my son has multiple drives with zero minutes and he drove for like 15 mins both time

It records just fine but fails to save the drives 😩 totally frustrating and defeating the purpose! Would be nice to be able to manually map drives to include mileage (even though it is unnecessary) I think that the estimated drive time compared to actual would be a nice addition to have.
