Description
Driver Sidekick is an all-new app connecting drivers to the back office, expediting billing, and enhancing driver satisfaction. It features an updated, intuitive look and feel, a home screen “dashboard” view, and a dedicated set of permissions to ease implementation. Driver Sidekick is designed for drivers. They can easily see their current assignment and can use the filterable list views to quickly locate the information they desire.
Home Screen On the Home Screen, the Current Assignment card welcomes the driver and provides load details, stop information, and appointment details and mileage to the next stop. The buttons visible beneath the card allow drivers to scan a document, create a new message, request time off, or run a Driver History Report. Drivers can review their most recent settlement details. Custom links allow the home office to curate employee communications, safety videos, links to vendor partners, benefit providers, and more.
Messages Sidekick’s Messages center makes it easy to filter messages sent and received, read and unread. The app sends confirmation messages with tappable thumbnails to review scanned images for easy reference.
Loads In the Loads section, Sidekick allows you to filter loads based on whether they’re available, in progress, or delivered. Each load type is color coded for consistency. The detail view for each load includes the following tabs: Stops, Map, Freight, and Images. The Stops tab displays key information about each stop on the load along with the load’s total miles. Drivers can see the stop’s average location rating and review the location after a visit, answering your custom questions. If freight is damaged, they can submit an OS&D claim, capturing photos of damaged freight and providing details as needed.
The Map tab allows drivers to see plotted commercial routes. The Freight tab displays weights, measures, and commodity information, along with safety training links for that commodity.
The Images tab displays a badge with a count of missing required images and allows drivers to review previously scanned documents. This way, drivers can easily see if a load is missing a required image from Rendition Customer because that missing document’s icon will be red. Drivers can also capture signatures, scan documents, and either take freight photos or upload them from the device’s photo library.
Pay The Pay screen makes it easy for drivers to see their pay history and pending settlements. The list of paid settlements includes the check number, date and amount and is linked to the Settlement Summary PDF from LoadMaster. The Pay section is configurable. You can disable paid settlements, pending settlements, or the Current Check Card on the Home Screen.
Settings Drivers can view their profile, which includes important dates like the driver’s work anniversary and the expiration of the driver’s physical and other certifications. You can enable automatic reminders to renew these credentials in LoadMaster. These reminders are sent to the driver as “push” notifications even when the app is not running on the driver’s device. If necessary, drivers can create a Motor Accident report that includes details and photos from the accident scene. The Support tab contains critical device and app data and a convenient button to request McLeod Support.
Administration We’ve made Driver Sidekick customizable to fit your business needs. To enable or disable Driver Sidekick’s features, open Permissions Manager and scroll to Driver Sidekick. These granular permissions provide a great deal of flexibility for your implementation of Driver Sidekick.
Driver Sidekick requires McLeod LoadMaster version 22.2 or newer.
Recent changes: * When your stop has a confirmed appointment time, we now bring that to your attention. * Pending settlements can now be filtered by date, if available. * Stability improvements and bug fixes.

Love how easy it is to download, scan, organize all the paperwork in one place. I love the fact that it is easy to learn it and to apply it with multiple people in this organization and everyone gets the necessary paper worker downloads as needed. Love it! Really love it!

Great 👍 app but on the second page in the top right-hand corner those 2 words are 2 close to each other and I taped it as one word, and it kept retaking the screenshot

A little bit better than the anywhere app since you can now chop the image yourself. It is nice if there was a setting to turn off the automatic picture scan so I can just take picture myself from the start, instead of when auto scan failed (about half the time) and then it will allow me to take the picture myself. But everything else on app is great and useful.

Will not allow choosing document type after scanning document. Will not send document without choosing document type. And "support" charges the company outlandish charges for problems with their app.

Always have to take a photo and download it causes scan never detects paperwork and always send it blurry

The new app for the most part is better than Anywhere app that this new sidekick app is replacing... Only problem is.....this new scanning device on Sidekick is HORRIBLE and works terribly!!!! The Anywhere App scanning device worked 100% more efficient and more user-friendly than this new Sidekick scanning software.... I sure hope you address this soon

SloOoOoOow if it works at all. I was initially excited about the app and having less paperwork to fill out. Its loads painfully slow on startup, and when I try to pull my loads up to send documents it takes forever to load my information if it does at all. Currently the app won't open at all. I was able to clear the cache or restart my phone to get it to work. Now, nothing. I can fill out 5 trip sheets before this thing load. Was supposed to be helpful. Now it's an infuriating hindrance.

The app doesn't allow me to upload documents, it keeps giving me a permissions' error, and I have gone through the permissions, and I can't find the option to give access to files or photos, also I am hoping it will allow me to upload PDF files if I can get the upload issues resolved. As of 03/27/25 still having all kinds of issues with both Android and iOS versions.
