Feature Focus – Touch Ready Fleet Software

Built for the Real World: Truly Touch-Ready Fleet Software

Fleet management doesn’t just happen behind a desk. It happens in the warehouse, on the roadside, and in the cab. That is why we have engineered the entire Pay as you Track suite—from the office-based View platform to the Drivers mobile app—to be “Touch-Ready” by design.

Whether you are using a 40-inch interactive office monitor, a rugged industrial tablet, or an iPad, the experience is identical: fast, responsive, and incredibly easy to navigate.

One Interface, Every Device

We believe you shouldn’t have to learn three different versions of the same software. Pay as you Track View is built with a unified architecture that adapts to your hardware:

Large Touch Monitors: Turn your office wall into a giant interactive command centre. Drag, drop, and zoom with natural gestures to manage your fleet in real-time.

Rugged Tablets: Perfect for workshop environments where grease and grit are part of the job. Our high-contrast interface remains legible and responsive even on toughened glass.

iPads & Personal Tablets: Smooth, fluid animations make browsing your fleet as easy as scrolling through your morning news.

Designed for “Fat Fingers”

Let’s be honest: in the world of transport and logistics, tiny buttons are a nightmare. Our software is specifically designed with what we call “fat finger” optimisation:

Generous Hit Zones: Every button, toggle, and menu item in the Pay as you Track Drivers app is oversized. You won’t find yourself accidentally clicking the wrong icon or struggling to hit a tiny checkbox.
Tactile Feedback: Navigation is intuitive. Whether you are scrolling through a trip history or selecting a vehicle, the interface is spaced out to ensure accuracy, even if you’re wearing gloves or working on a vibrating dashboard mount.

Seamless DVIR & Compliance

The “Touch-Ready” philosophy is at its best in our DVIR (Driver Vehicle Inspection Report) module. We’ve transformed the tedious daily walk-around check into a streamlined, digital process:

Interactive Checklists: Drivers can quickly tap through safety checks. No pens, no paper, and no “was that a tick or a flick?” confusion.
Photo Capture: If a fault is found, the driver simply taps the screen to take a photo. Our touch interface makes it easy to annotate or highlight specific areas of damage.
Instant Submission: Once the check is done, a single large “Submit” button sends the data straight to the office, keeping your fleet compliant and your vehicles roadworthy with zero friction.

Why This Matters for Your Business

Zero Learning Curve: Because it works the same way on every device, your team can switch from a desktop to a tablet without needing new training.
Reduced Errors: Large touch targets mean fewer accidental clicks and more accurate data entry, especially during busy morning inspections.
Hardware Freedom: You aren’t locked into one brand. Buy the tablets or monitors that suit your budget and environment; our software will handle the rest.
Driver Satisfaction: Give your drivers a tool that actually works for them—not a fiddly app that makes their job harder.
