DriveMax MM — Mobile Mechanic No app store · No download

Get the DriveMaxMM app on your phone

Your office already rides in the truck. This is how you pin it to your home screen.

DriveMaxMM runs right in your phone's web browser — there's nothing to buy and nothing to install from a store. Add it once and it opens full-screen under its own icon, like any other app. Your jobs, estimates and invoices ride along, and when the software gets better, the better version is simply there the next time you open it. DriveMaxMM is $39.99/mo after a 30-day free trial — no card during the trial.

Do this on the phone that goes to the jobs with you.

iPhone

Safari, then the home screen

  1. Open Safari and go to the sign-in page: drivemaxdms.com/platform/login/
  2. Tap the Share button — the square with the arrow pointing up, at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Scroll down the list and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Tap Add in the top right. The DriveMaxMM icon is on your home screen.
  5. Open it from that icon and sign in with your DriveMax login.
Android

Chrome, then the home screen

  1. Open Chrome and go to the sign-in page: drivemaxdms.com/platform/login/
  2. Tap the ⋮ menu in the top right.
  3. Tap Add to Home screen — some phones call it Install app.
  4. Confirm, and the DriveMaxMM icon lands on your home screen.
  5. Open it from that icon and sign in with your DriveMax login.
Back at base? On a home computer, open the sign-in page in Chrome or Edge and click the small install icon at the right end of the address bar (or the browser menu → Install) — the books get their own window and icon at the desk, too.

The icon is just a door

If the icon is ever deleted — a new phone, a cleared screen, a kid with fast fingers — nothing is lost. Your jobs, invoices and customers don't live on the phone; they live with DriveMax. Sign in again in the browser and Add to Home Screen once more. The door is back, and everything behind it is right where you left it.

You're the shop — make sure the work reaches you

There's no front desk to catch what you miss. When a customer calls, texts or books, your phone is the counter — set it up so nothing slips past:

  • Let it send notifications — tap Allow when the phone asks. New jobs and customer answers are worth a sound.
  • On an iPhone, open Settings → Notifications, find DriveMaxMM, and turn on Allow Notifications and Time Sensitive. If you use Focus or Do Not Disturb after hours, decide on purpose which hours job calls get through.
  • On Android, set notifications to Alerting / pop on screen and the app's Battery use to Unrestricted — a battery saver shouldn't get a vote on whether you hear about work.
  • Location: allow it while using the app, so job addresses and directions are right when you're rolling.
  • Keep the ringer up during the hours you take work. The truck is the shop, and the phone is the counter bell.

Questions

I don't see "Add to Home Screen" on my iPhone

Make sure you're in Safari — not Chrome, and not a private window. Tap Share and scroll all the way down the list; the option sits further down than you'd think.

It opened in the browser instead of full-screen

Open it from the home-screen icon, not from a bookmark or an old browser tab. The icon is what runs it full-screen like an app.

Do I need to update it?

No. New versions arrive on their own — no store visit, nothing to download. If it ever looks out of date, close it completely and open it again from the icon.

I forgot my password

On the sign-in page, choose Forgot your password? and reset it with a code.
