Journeys

Diving a little deeper into your journeys and scores.

Blocks

Each score is calculated using journeys grouped into blocks of at least 100 miles of driving data. E.G. If you have driven 91 miles over 3 journeys and your next journey is 30 miles, that journey would be used to complete the block providing a score based on the 121 miles driven.

Blocks are scored out of 100, composed of 7 different components – Advanced Driver Assistant Systems or (ADAS) reaction, driving duration, erratic driving, lane departure, speeding, tailgating and time of day Understand more about each scoring component within the app;

Journeys

The Theo device

Ladies and Gentlemen start your engines- At ignition Theo will say “Hello, please fasten your seatbelt, video is now enabled.” And after a short delay will say “GPS is now activated”.

How to remove your SD card

5*1-minute videos can be downloaded for free per month. The micro SD card can be found to the lower side of the power cable on the device. If you wish to remove your SD card simply push down on the card and it will eject for removal. Please be careful to ensure the device doesn’t move when removing the SD card to avoid affecting calibration.

Fitting of the device

Theo requires a professional instillation, but don’t worry you have already paid for that! Simply hand over the device the engineer when they arrive for your installation appointment. It is important that you don’t attempt to install the device yourself.

Reviewing your journeys

Within 24 hours of installation your device will be linked to your app and your future journeys will start appearing.

GPS synchronisation time

Theo uses 8 different satellites to give you the best possible consistent connection, but please allow for connection times that may vary depending on weather conditions and location.

Black spot in GPS

As with mobile phones and Satnavs there are areas of the country with lower signal strengths e.g. tunnels etc. If traveling through such black spots, these journeys may not be represented accurately in your travel history.

Device Sounds

When the vehicle ignition is switched on theo will speak to you to advise that "video recording has now started". Theo will then notify you again when the device has successfully connected to GPS.

Theo's inbuilt forward collision warning will also notify you with a tone if it believes a frontal crash is impending.
