MiX Telematics introduces new real-time driver tracking app

Telematics provider MiX Telematics announced that its MyMiX Tracking app is now available. MyMiX Tracking allows companies to drive fleet safety and efficiency without the need for embedded hardware, the telematics provider said.

MyMiX Tracking leverages mobile phone technology to enable real-time tracking of drivers while also recording, measuring and enabling real-time self-correction of risky driving behavior events including speeding, harsh braking, harsh acceleration and mobile phone use while driving, the company notes. The app is an extension of MyMiX, a driver engagement app that also equips drivers with valuable information and alerts to improve their driving style, including immediate, in-cab audible feedback, the company adds.

MiX Telematics noted that this product is aimed at customers running sub-contractor vehicles, leased vehicles, company cars, short-term rentals or grey fleets.

The app is available for download from the Apple App Store and the Google Play store.
