Download DriveView, verify your mobile number, and grant the permissions DriveView needs to track loads on your iPhone or iOS device.

For Android, see Install DriveView on an Android device.

Before you begin

You need:

• An iPhone or iOS device that can send and receive SMS messages.
• A mobile phone number that matches the number a load is assigned to. A placeholder number, landline, or carrier contact number does not work for tracking.

Download DriveView

After a load is assigned to your phone number, you receive a text message with a link to download DriveView.

• To download from the text message, tap the link in the SMS.
• To download from the store instead, search for DriveView in the Apple App Store and install the app published by project44.

Get started

1. Open DriveView.
2. On the welcome screen, tap the language selector near the top of the screen if you want to change the app language.
3. Tap Get Started. By tapping Get Started, you agree to the project44 Terms of Service.

The Verify Your Mobile Number screen opens.

Verify your mobile number

1. On the Verify Your Mobile Number screen, tap the country selector to the left of the phone number field.
   
2. Search for your country by name and select it from the list. DriveView updates the dialing code to match your selection.
   
3. Enter your mobile phone number in the number field.
4. Confirm that DriveView displays Phone number is valid below the field. The Request Code button becomes active.
   
5. Tap Request Code.

DriveView sends a four-digit verification code to your number by SMS.

Tip: Select your country with the country picker instead of typing the dialing code directly into the phone number field. If a country code is entered as part of the phone number, tracking for the load can be denied.

Enter your verification code

1. On the Enter Your Code screen, enter the four-digit code from the SMS message.
2. DriveView displays Verifying while it checks the code, then continues on its own.

If you did not receive a code, tap Resend Code. If you entered the wrong number, tap Change Mobile Number to start over.

Tip: On newer versions of iOS, the verification code can appear above the keyboard so you can enter it with one tap.

Allow notifications

DriveView uses notifications to send timely information about your loads. It does not use notifications for promotions or spam.

1. On the Get Notified screen, tap Next.
   
2. In the iOS system prompt, tap Allow.

Grant permissions

DriveView needs two permissions to track loads on iOS: Location and Background location. The Permissions screen lists each one with its own button. A red alert icon marks a permission that is not yet granted, and a green check icon marks one that is granted.

Grant each permission in order:

1. For Location, tap Allow While Using App. In the iOS system prompt, select Allow While Using App.
2. For Background location, tap Change to Always Allow. In the iOS system prompt, select Change to Always Allow. This lets DriveView send location updates without interrupting you.
3. Confirm that both permissions show a green check icon, then tap Continue.

DriveView opens to the Loads screen, where assigned loads appear.

Important: Set Location access to Always and keep precise location on so DriveView can track loads accurately in the background. Without these settings, tracking may not work. iOS may remind you about the permission after a few days. Keep it enabled so project44 can continue providing tracking for your loads.
