Mentor Business by eDriving℠ for Android

Using and going through this app makes me want to run the creators of it off the road on the freeway. It is so terrible and condescending that I can’t imagine anyone benefiting from this. I hope the company who made this do other things that are actually useful to society. If my job was this worthless I would quit and find something better to do with my life immediately. Don’t respond to this review. Quit your job and do better.

Completely inconsistent, canned responses, and the arrogant condescending weekly email .

I understand all of the aspects and actions that would normally cause a phone manipulation. My issue is that over the last week I have been continuously getting a phone manipulation when in fact my phone stays in a magnetic phone holder the entire trip and I do not touch it. I do everything to avoid phone manipulations and yet they continue to show up on my app. This app is obviously flawed and from the looks of the reviews should obviously not be depended on for accurate driving reports. Support is useless because all they can say is “you must be doing”…, Well I AM NOT, so fix your program.

It appears this flawed program grades on a curve. My company uses this product. And it appears to grade on a curve. Apparently averaging the 24/7 week. Including when you are not clocked in. When you are on personal time. Which is, IMO, a privacy issue. No one likes being monitored. Especially when errors are made by a software program like Mentor is. The developers claim to use it themselves, but that’s just so they can sell it to companies. If they claim to use it because it improves their driving, their lying. And, drivers need to drive badly in order to have improvement. And that’s what Mentor does. If everyone was always a good driver, we wouldn’t need an unreliable app based on tracking your cell phone for speed, hard turns, hard braking, phone manipulation. That’s right, touch your Maps app while driving and you’re not a good driver! It’s crap!! Update: Months and many reviews later, this app may be the most detested app in the history of Google App Store Apps. It’s rating is really zero but reviewers must score it at least a one. Everyone writing about it hates it. And those writing anything positive are surely a shill. The developer responses to reviews are laughable. Hopefully this “Big Brother” company will be visited by the Real Big Brother. Maybe then they might just understand invasion on privacy.

I drove (5) mph below the speed limit, on the highway for 28 miles, then drove into town without any sudden stops and I received (4) stars. Our job depends on the integrity of this app.
