    Is the app linked to your personal funds or the EFS card? I looked into it but didn't want to enter my card info

    Weigh my truck by cat scale. You add your efs card n email. Then follow the prompts. Very simple and works at all cat scales even the mom n pops truck stops. uploadfromtaptalk1429450089950.jpg

    You get an email with a pdf of the scale ticket.

    The Cat Scale app is the greatest thing ever. I was able to drive from the Gary OC to the TA on Burr street, weigh, adjust axles, reweigh, and be back at the OC within 15 minutes.

    The only hard part is remembering to go get the paper copy when you're going to drop a relay.

    The CAT scale app saves me so much time. I see right away whether or not I need to adjust, then can just pull back around and reweigh once I've adjusted. No need to park and go inside unless I need the scale ticket for a relay. But, the thing I like most about it is that (with only one exception I've found so far - The Greater Chicago I-55 truck stop in Bolingbrook) I can use my fuel card via the app to pay for scales at places that don't otherwise take our fleet card. Only downsides I've found so far is that I can't get points with the app when I scale at Love's, and sometimes the app isn't able to communicate with the scale computer and I still end up having to go inside and do it the old fashioned way.
