SmartTruckRoute Vehicle Tracking

The development team of the SmartTruckRoute app is pleased to offer a low cost, easy to use vehicle tracking targeted to small and mid-sized fleet owners. Tracking works in the background once the driver agrees to turn on the feature. Rest assured that data usage is very limited and will not significantly impact cell phone data usage. The feature is very easy to use and does not require the professional driver to install a separate application.


How it works:

  1. Download and install SmartTruckRoute app onto the device you wish to track.
  2. Purchase a vehicle tracking license. (Note that Vehicle tracking can be used with or without a routing subscription as the two subscriptions are independent).
  3. Launch SmartTruckRoute on the device to be tracked.
  4. Select Settings, Route Configuration, and turn on "Tracking". Enter "02108" to unlock the feature and then email the device tracking number to apps@smarttruckroute.com. Once we receive it, we will activate the app and begin transmitting the position of the moving vehicle.
  5. Fleet manager checks position of the vehicle by visiting www.smarttruckroute.com/track and logging into the system. The tracking display (of each subscribed vehicle) will be updated based on speed of travel and distance travelled.
