TruckMap - Truck GPS Routes

Works 99% of the time so far it’s the best out of all the other apps on here if u put in reefer it takes u to the grocery loading docks most of the time and it shows u a truck friendly way on how to enter a location I said it works 99% of the time the other 1% like many other truck gps they’re not 100% accurate so u need to satillite view and plan before u start and just be aware of ur surroundings and read signs don’t just follow the blue line it’s lead to me weight restricted roads and no trucks allowed but rarely once in a awhile and it has an option to take the fastest route it took me thru back streets and gravel kind scary with a 18 wheeler and a road with two lanes but my truck took up both lanes i followed it with no issues but I would still to the normal setting for routes that was a risky route but anyways this is the best on the App Store I wouldn’t download anything else others just go off google or they charge a subscription to do wat truck map does

This app has helped very much to find truck routes in unfamiliar areas, especially the East Coast where there are many truck restrictions and low overpasses. HOWEVER some annoyances need to be addressed: 1: Cannot access settings while navigating. 2: Once exiting navigation, settings can be accessed but they are very basic. I drive a large, 13 ton box truck with a 13’ height but noticed that the routes favor taking “three lefts” rather than one simple right turn which I can totally do in this thing. Settings don’t seem to allow for the fact that I don’t have a trailer and can turn on a dime in spite of my height. 3: I forgot what the third thing was. Oh yeah! The map keeps resetting to “Default, Sound On” rather than “Satellite, Sound Off” every time I reopen the app. GRRRR! 4: (I just remembered the fourth thing which was actually the third thing but whatever, you’re probably not reading this anyway but I really do love this app. Mostly.) I would like to be able to get rid of the quick menu of icons at the bottom of the screen. It gobbles up valuable real estate and I do not use those shortcuts ever. Let us hide them! Thank you

I’ve used this app only a few times. I work on the Dollar General store account in the midwest and I often have to deliver to stores in the middle of nowhere. I’ve used it in Arkansas to avoid dirt roads (my Navigo gps inside my truck provided by Qualcomm often takes me to dirt roads). It worked. Though it took me to a dirt road in March 2019 while driving in Nebraska. Another time in Missouri it wanted me to go uphill left and right through a neighborhood with small streets to reach my destination instead of going just straight ( the store was 1/2 mile ahead). I’m not trusting this app that much. Also you cannot zoom out when using the navigation without eventually disappearing from the screen. Everything else works fine so far.

This is a very helpful app and fills an obvious void for a trucking route app that google maps and Waze don’t have (I have no clue why they haven’t bought out this or a different app and integrated into their yet..). There is a very serious flaw which needs to be addressed - it misses some turning commands. For example it says exit right to 10 c-d in 1 mile. At exit 10 c-d it branches off into 2 different sub exits : exit c and exit d. One exit is going north and one south. But the next command from the app is exit I-95 in 7 miles. But which sub exit brings me to I-95!? It happened every time there a sub exit after an exit it fails every time to select which sub exit to use. This is a clear flaw in the navigation system.

This app is terrible if you rely on it for truck routes that are anywhere but the freeways. It has gotten me into trouble way too many times. Twice in the last 2 days. It had me turn on a service road that was too tight for my truck. I had to jump the curb/median so as not to wreck the side of my trailer. By the time a sign was posted only 30’ long trucks could make it, I couldn’t back up. This was in NYC. It has sent me on roads that when I get there are clearly not for trucks. Posted as well. Today it sent me on a road on Long Island that I couldn’t fit under the bridge. That was the last straw that made me write this review. Do NOT rely on this if you’re a trucker going anywhere but the major highways. And it’s terrible at finding truck washes as well. I’ve been across the U.S. and this is just let me down too many times.
