    I looked up the udrove app. The app is free but under terms of use it mentions that you agree to pay. In the signup area, there's a place for you to input your credit card info. I could not find what their charges are however.

    Nah, I'm afraid I won't be the guinea pig for this app, but I'm very interested in how well you like the log app. Keep us posted please!

    I just got my first iPhone a few weeks ago. I had previously used a Blackberry and I gotta say that Apple has hit a homerun with the iPhone. It's hands down the best smart phone out there.

    As to the apps, I highly recommend the Amber Alert app. Unlike the free text message alert thing at amberalert.org, you can see every Amber Alert in every state. That's perfect for the OTR driver.
     
    Gears Thanks this.

    I am sorry it took me awhile to reply...:biggrin_2557: my report may be somewhat biased I can fill out two log sheets for the time it takes to enter the info . the app seems more of a novelty for me, and it continually wants to enter current location! It is to much work to enter than send to email and print off acopy for the dot...... you need your previous logs handy for the dot, that being said. I give it a thumbs down!:biggrin_25510:

    Thanks for the review. It helps!
    On another note, that uDrive app, I saw on apple's website, it's priced at $25 per month but that's listed as an introductory price. Who knows what the real price will be.....
