ELD Android - July Updates 2025
Improvements:
Mobile Power On/Off Events Now Logged for Better Visibility
To improve visibility into driver activity and device behavior, the ELD app now captures two new mobile-level events as system-generated remarks: When a driver powers off or restarts their phone, the app will now create two new log entries:
- Phone Powered Off – logged when the mobile device is shut down.
- Phone Powered On – logged when the device is turned back on.
These remarks appear on the Logs screen in the ELD app and are also synced to the Azuga portal. This enhancement ensures better visibility into phone activity, making it easier to investigate any gaps in trip logs or data reporting.
Odometer Offset Now Supports Miles and Kilometers in Mobile App
The Odometer Offset setting under Settings > Equipment now includes a toggle to switch between Miles and Kilometers. By default, the unit is set to Miles for US-based accounts and Kilometers for Canadian accounts.
If users switch the unit and save, the value is automatically converted and displayed in the newly selected unit. This update ensures that mobile and portal odometer data remain consistent, region-appropriate, and easily interpretable by fleet administrators and drivers alike.
Faster and Streamlined DVIR Experience in the Mobile App
We’ve enhanced the DVIR workflow to make inspections quicker and more intuitive. The Add Photo button has been removed and replaced with a compact camera icon below the Pass/Fail buttons. Similarly, the comment box is no longer shown by default. A new comment icon is available next to the camera icon. Tapping this icon will reveal or hide the comment box as needed. These changes help speed up the DVIR process by only showing additional fields when required, ensuring a cleaner and more efficient inspection flow.
Improved Recalculation Logic for Operating Zone Changes
Previously, when a driver changed their operating zone, the app would recalculate HOS rules starting from either the previous shift reset or the last zone change, sometimes resulting in inaccurate violations due to overlapping rules from different zones.
With this update, the recalculation will now start from the moment the operating zone is changed, and in cases where the driver is actively in Driving status, it will start from one event prior to the zone change. This ensures cleaner transitions between zones and more accurate compliance checks.
ELD Certification ID Now Shown in Certify Logs PDF
The Certify Logs PDF and Data Transfer reports now include the accurate ELD Certification ID based on the equipment type selected.
This enhancement resolves previous inconsistencies where the wrong or missing certification ID was shown, depending on the selected equipment or operating zone.
- For valid equipment types, the correct ID is now shown in both the USA and Canada cycles.
- For equipment set as ‘None’, data transfer is restricted, and appropriate behavior is maintained.
- If the equipment type is changed, the certification ID updates accordingly once the driver uncertifies and re-certifies their logs.
