Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers praise the app for its ability to track driving habits, provide insights for improvement, and potentially lead to lower insurance premiums. Many users appreciate the detailed driving feedback and the motivation it provides to become a safer driver. The app is often described as easy to use, working unobtrusively in the background, and offering useful ancillary features like fuel price comparisons. However, some people were dissatisfied with the app's accuracy, particularly regarding phone usage detection while being a passenger or misinterpreting acceleration and braking events. A few other people also felt that the insurance quotes offered through the app were not always competitive, sometimes even being more expensive than those found on comparison websites.

Love the app but not sure if it takes driving in other countries into account. I'm in Cyprus and the speed limits are often judged wrongly and conering on tight mountain roads seems to go against you... See more

Unobtrusive, works in the background. Very kind about my driving so far! Have not yet tried using it to get a good insurance deal. There's also an option to search for the cheapest petrol/diesel price... See more

About DriveScore

Written by the company

Good Drivers Can Save Money on Car Insurance With DriveScore.

DriveScore is a new app that offers to help users prove and improve their driving skills, enabling them to save money on car insurance quotes and other products. DriveScore uses your phone's sensors to track how you drive, identifying where you could improve.

DriveScore monitors how you drive your car, giving you feedback and insight while building a score that can help you save money with better car insurance deals, by proving to insurers that you’re a good driver.

By putting users in control of data collected as they drive, DriveScore makes driving a safer, cleaner and fairer experience for all. DriveScore studies how you drive, analysing your driving behaviour, giving you valuable insight on your driving style and will directly help you save money on your car insurance.

DriveScore helps you to build better driving habits by offering you personalised driving tips and highlighting areas that you can improve.

FEATURES:

DRIVE
DriveScore automatically measures how you drive, turning your phone into a silent driving coach. It's easy to set up and runs in the background, distraction-free (and won’t drain your battery).

SCORE
Get your own DriveScore, see how you compare and track how your driving changes. See what’s positive and what to work on. Prove how well you drive.

SAVE
Make your miles go further by using DriveScore to shop for better car insurance. Use your score to get enhanced offers from our insurance partners and see if you can save. A smarter, fairer way to buy based on how you drive, not how insurers think you drive.

SEE
View the full details of your trip, including overall drive rating, insights, trip stats and the precise location of each driving event recorded.

FREE
Your data is always in your control and DriveScore will be FREE, forever.

Install DriveScore on your phone, the app will then use the functionality of your smartphone such as the accelerometer, gyroscope, compass and GPS readings to determine when you are undertaking a ‘Trip’ in a vehicle.

DriveScore will use these tools to take and record measurements relating to your driving behaviour, including calculating speed, acceleration, braking, cornering and distance travelled.

Demonstrating lower-risk driving behaviour such as smooth cornering and acceleration will lead to a higher DriveScore, while actions such as sudden braking or excessive speeding will lead to a lower DriveScore.

These are some of the factors that insurers may consider when providing a quote for car insurance premiums. DriveScore offers you the opportunity to understand how your driving behaviour may impact the cost of your car insurance premium.

Take DriveScore for a spin, download the app now and help make car insurance fairer for millions of people.

Become a better driver today.

Absolutely waste of time and pointless…

Absolutely waste of time and pointless app, the basis of the app from my understanding, is to see how well you drive and when insurance is up for renewal it would give reasonable quotes for how well your driving. When i used the app for renewal of insurance it gave me pointless quotes around 200 for the cheapest quote. Drive score has been a waste of time since i have downloaded it, where it has been one year now.

An excellent aid for safety on our roads.

This isn't just about cheaper insurance. I have been driving to achieve a higher score for personal satisfaction, currently 990. Having resigned from the Institute of Advanced Motorists, due to the "petrol head" element within (and the surprising statistic that IAM insurance claims are no lower than the average) this app really encourages safe driving.

A great app which logs every journey you do let's you know what you need to improve on tells you what your average speed was for every journey ive reached pro driver but need DriveScore to partner up with Riviera who ive been with for 3 years now that would get me cheaper insurance that I need if DriveScore could kindly team up with Riviera.
Many thanks
Kindest regards

I have used Drive score for a couple of years and l let them track me, my score is 918 out of 1000 which l suppose means l am a reasonable driver but the claim they make that you get cheaper insurance l don’t think is true as the quotes l have are always more than my insurance company offers so l stick with Admiral whom l think is brilliant.

It keeps a great record of my driving…

It keeps a great record of my driving history and it almost becomes addictive, you want to see how your score has changed at the end of the drive or day.
I like the breakdown into accelerating, breaking, cornering etc, it allows you to see room for improvement although you do have to realise it's a multi-purpose phone app with a rudimentary accelerometer.
Haven't used the insurance and other features yet but may do so this year.

App thinks ultra mild braking is hard

I log these events on TrustPilot as it is the only way I get a response. Once again it logged an event of hard braking when I know nothing of the kind happened. They conveniently tell me that I reduced speed by 11 mph in 10 seconds. This equates to about 0.05 g. Gentle braking is normally regarded as 0.1 - 0.2 g and Normal braking as 0.3 - 0.4 g and hard braking as 0.6- 0.8 g while an emergency stop would be 0.9 - 1.0 g. I love the concept of this app but it sometimes throws up these nonsensical and inexplicable 'Events'. They say such occasional 'events' do not materially affect the overall score, but they are nevertheless off putting. I would love them to get it right.

The app is a waste of time!

I have been using the app for nearly a year because my car insurance stated I could get discounts on my insurance. I have a score of over 850. However, when my renewal came in, my insurance had increased by nearly £100. When I contacted them, stating that I use the Drive Score app and sharing my score, they didn't care and were unwilling to budge on the price.

When I used the app to compare other insurance companies, I found them to be very expensive compared to the normal comparison websites.
The app has been a total waste of my time, so I will be deleting it.

Hi Amy,

Thanks for your review. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback about the insurance quotes.

If you can’t see a suitable deal on DriveScore at the moment, then keep checking back. We’ll be working with more providers in the future in hopes to provide more options. If you've found a better price somewhere else, we’d like to hear from you. When you log in to the app, go to the insurance screen showing your quotes. At the bottom of the screen, you’ll see ‘Found a cheaper quote’ – tap this to let us know about the cheaper quote.

If you need help on this, please email us at feedback@drivescore.com.

Many thanks,
Leo

Help you raise your game

It's very good, eerily accurate and helps you to raise you game by letting you know where you can tangibly improve. Mind you, with an average of 924, I'm bound to like it lol.
Also lots of ancillary features such as fuel prices and insurance quotes all in one useful app.

Total waste of time

Honestly the whole reason I got this app was to save money on car insurance but the quotes I obtained were all higher than the ones in compare the market. I got a good score despite the fact I was always losing points for cornering due to roundabouts and found the app discouraging so I deleted it. Total waste of time

Does not record all journeys

I like the app overall but it doesn't record all the journeys which I find disappointing. It will record an outward journey but not the return. Sometimes it does not record trips over several days.

it is a great tool to highlight areas of improvement.
The app also helps with car insurance. Admiral quoted £1,132 renewal price but though drive score, I got insurance for £680.
Would have given 5 star but I feel aggrieved that despite scoring a high 971/ 1000 score, I get penalised for braking. and most of the times I had to hard brake is when some inconsiderate drivers suddenly jump cut in or when the traffic lights turn amber when i am approaching the lights.
