Thanks guys! This is precisely what I was looking for. I promise a 5star rating as I would like to test it out with various shipments and weights etc. in real scenario. I tried some UN numbers and mixed shipments after download and cross-referenced the book. It's pretty accurate. Great tool for quick and easy look up, however, as a driver I'd like to cross-check with book as well, for my satisfaction. Will update in few weeks... Really easy to use. I downloaded from Google app and then created an account using personal email and after a step or two, I was in, and app link was automatically added to my home screen. Now just one tap and ready to go. I highly recommend this app to folks in need, like me! Safety is critical!

If you know what your doing then this app is really pointless. If you knew to trucking and/or hazmat this app can be very helpful.

It is constantly replacing one of the placards with the 2922 placard, no matter what you do. I was so excited when I saw description to the app, and I was about to recommend it to co-workers, but it needs to be working properly! P.S. I will have an updated review soon.

Tried creating account and had to verify with credit card fee of $0. After it verified a dating site popped out and my card was charged $1.25
★★☆☆☆
I having the same problem with email it says email invalid which is baloney
I use this email on every thing else I even tried Lower case, and it says
invalid email
★★☆☆☆
I tried several different combinations and found out that the application is not compliant with 49 CFR 172. I read the disclaimer and EZ Placard does not guarantee the correct placard solution. What is most important to consider when using this software is that First Responder lives and the Public depend on having the correct placards and following the correct segregation rules. Safety first!
★★☆☆☆
I just created a shipment from a land star shipment documentary and the placards that were recommended had one more placard than what land star had recommended. I don't think I can rely on this app.
