So with that in mind, I reviewed some of the more common apps. I stress these are not all that’s out there, just what seems to be the most common.
Overdrive’s Trucker Tools
This is great for helping to locate all those essentials like the nearest truck stops, rest areas, scales, and service centers. But it offers more than that. It can aid in route planning, has a fuel optimizer program, and more.
Another great feature it offers brokers, carriers, and shippers the option to track a shipment’s route and acquire status updates, in real time. This is a great tool that can add to your company’s credibility. Instead of annoyed anxious customers calling you, they can simply check and get updates themselves.
Overdrive’s Trucker Tools, offers all these features (and more) and it’s a free app!

User reviews: This seemed to get the best reviews. Users generally agreed that it works great and provides up to date information.
TRANSFLO Mobile
