3 1. Dynafleet Android App The Dynafleet Android app is mainly a replica of the already existing apps for ios (iphone and ipad). However, some discrepancies between the applications exist, primarily in terms of layout and interaction in the ipad app vs. the Android app running on a tablet. The main reason for this is that the Android App adapts to any device, independent of screen size, resolution and orientation. Feature Android app ios (iphone/ipad) app Device Any Android smartphone or tablet ipad 1 or later iphone 3GS or later App download Google Play Apple App store Operating system Android 4.0 or later ios 5.0 or later User login Fleet user and Driver Functionality Equal Table 1 Android & ios feature comparison 1.1. Dynafleet services requirements All data in the app is retrieved from Dynafleet Online and requires that the vehicles have the applicable Dynafleet service(s) enabled for each App feature. Dynafleet service App feature Fuel & Environment Vehicle data and fuel efficiency score Positioning Vehicle position in the map Driver Times Driver times overview and the Driver times graph Messaging N/A Table 2 Service and feature comparison The vehicle needs to be registered and active in Dynafleet Online. The user also needs to have a Dynafleet Online fleet user account and have the vehicles and drivers assigned to a fleet user account. Note that only the Dynafleet services enabled on the vehicle will provide information to the app. Similar to the data that is available in Dynafleet Online Language support The Dynafleet Android app is localized in the languages according to Table 3. The app will be presented in the language selected in the Android system settings. English is used as fall-back language when a non-supported language is specified in the device.

4 1.3. Installation and first launch The app is downloaded and installed on the Android device from Google Play. When launching the app for the first time, content is downloaded from the web server. During this download, a splash screen with the Dynafleet logo and a progress bar is presented. There are two different user roles that can login into the app Fleet User Driver 1.4. Fleet User login When starting the app, the login page is presented to the user. The same username and password as the Fleet User is using in DFOL must be used when logging into the app. A driver who has been enabled to use the Dynafleet app by a fleet administrator must first sign up to the app to receive a password. To sign up, the Driver must have the app installed on the device, start it and then tap the Driver sign up button. The Driver sign up view will then be presented to the driver. A driver who has signed up for the app will then use the address together with the received password to log in. Figure 1 Smartphone login Figure 2 Tablet login 1.5. Driver login Activation To activate the driver login, the fleet administrator must give the driver access by updating the driver in the DFOL. In create/modify driver, a checkbox enables Access to Dynafleet smartphone application, refer to Figure 3. When creating new drivers it will be checked as default but can be unchecked. When the checkbox is checked the field for the driver is mandatory as this is required when the driver sign up in the App. This means that before a Driver can sign up in the App, a fleet administrator needs to approve that the driver shall be allowed to use the App and also enter the drivers address in DFOL.

5 Figure 3 Smartphone driver access Driver login The driver enters the same address as registered in DFOL and taps on the Sign up button. If the entered in the signup matches the that the fleet administrator has entered in DFOL, a password will be sent to the address. Before the driver can login with his and the password sent to him he needs to activate his account by clicking on the link included in the mail.

6 Figure 4 Driver sign up in app Forgotten password A driver can reset the password via the forgotten password page. The driver enters the same e- mail address as registered in Dynafleet Online and taps on the Request new password button. If the entered in the request matches the in DFOL a new password will be sent to the address. Before the driver can login with the new password sent to him he needs to activate his account by clicking on the link included in the mail.

When tapping the list entry for a fleet, the driver will be directed to the dashboard presenting the data within that specific fleet. Figure 6 Driver fleet selection

8 1.6. Navigation bar Navigation in the app is primarily made via the navigation bar found at the bottom of each view. When tapping a non-selected button the user is directed to the last visited view within that area. When tapping an already selected button the user is directed to the top view within that area (e.g. the vehicles list for the vehicles button). Figure 7 Navigation bar for dispatcher Figure 8 Navigation bar for driver 1.7. Dashboard The first view displayed after a fleet user login is a dashboard with a summary of the performance of the assigned vehicles. The driver dashboard displays the data related to that specific driver. The overview data consists of Total time Total distance Average speed Average fuel consumption CO2 footprint Vehicle utilisation (time with engine running/calendar time) Smartphone dashboard view Fleet User view Driver view

Today Results from last midnight to now Yesterday Results of the day before today (not including today) 7 days Results of the last seven days including today 30 days Results of the last thirty days including today Day Today Yesterday Last 7 days Last 30 days Table 4 Time period overview 30 (today) Fuel Efficiency Score (FES) The score is based on a range of parameters divided into four different groups: Anticipation and braking o A combination of parameter Coasting and Brake/stop relation Engine and gear utilisation o A combination of parameters I-shift in A, I-shift in M, Within economy, Top gear, Above economy, Overrev, I-shift in P, and Engine load

11 Speed adaption o A combination of parameters Overspeed, and Cruise control Stand still o The parameter Idling The score is calculated from a weighted value depending on type of vehicle. This value can be between 0 and 100, where a higher value always is better than a lower value. As an example, if idling score is 100, it means that the idling time has been very low in reality. A traffic light indicator is also implemented to improve the readability of the result. Green (good) >= 80 up to 100 Yellow (ok) >= 60 and < 80 Red (not ok) < Tablet dashboard view Tap on a FES parameter in the dashboard to see sub parameter view.
