I initially had problems with this app because it always appear to be on even after the vehicle was stopped. Therefore I missed a couple messages. I uninstalled and then reinstall the app and it seems to be working better now but I'm going to monitor it for a while.

So this activated and I wasn't even driving, or moving for that matter. I miss a text message because of this. I like the concept, but this needs to be addressed and fixed.

Very easy to use! And I love how it tells someone you are driving. So they don't feel like you are ignoring them.

Overall it is a good app, it works as it is supposed to while I am driving. However, I normally keep my phone on vibrate all the time and since I've downloaded this app, my ringer keeps turning back onto volume. Additionally, I usually have bluetooth on (because of headphones)-- but since I've downloaded this app, it keeps turning bluetooth off. I'm not sure what exactly is going on with this. Edit: thank you for the tip about bluetooth-- I assume the ringer thing is probably unrelated?

Was excellent but not reliable any more. Turns on and off multiple times while I'm driving making its own distracting noise each time and with no option to adjust sensitivity anymore it comes on in elevators, when I'm walking, when I'm skating. It also doesn't often switch itself off anymore. This was an excellent app before but now I think I will have to uninstall due to the unreliability of the current version.

Andrew's app has been so wonderful! I have tried a few other free safe driving apps, and they were so bogged down with advertising apps, they prompted some distracted driving! I love how this turns on automatically when driving, and that the sensitivity of that feature is adjustable! It silences my phone to prevent distracted driving. I love that the auto-text feature is customizable! Told my closest friends of this app! 1 minor issue: it doesn't always turn off once my drive is over. Def 5* !!
