I'd like to compile a top 20 list of any apps drivers use on a daily or weekly basis that are related to the industry, so any help or input would be greatly appreciated!
What are your favorite/most used trucking related apps?

Don't use a lot of Trucking Related Apps a lot.
Occasionally use the Truckstop Apps (Loves TA Petro and PFJ)
Cat Scale App, Blue Beacon App.
Some of the State DOTs have Apps for Road Conditions. -
"my DAT TRUCKER SERVICES"
(android)
I get nearby loads, truckstops, scales, walmarts, rest areas, truck washes, the fuel prices are not very up to date but I still use it half of dozen times a day. I think its great. I also use "Fuel Log" dailyLast edited: Nov 20, 2012

Google Maps is my number one. Truxster is like a mobile version of the Truck Stops pocket handbook. Ive also used it to call truck stops to verify if they have a truck wash.
pilot, ta, loves apps i use to see if i have a shower, and to see what they have to eat so i can decide on breakfast. And to see if upcoming TAs have Taco Bell.
CAT Scales and Blue Beacon i rarely use, but have used both. -
Fuelbook
