DotTrax — User Guide

Home Screen — What this page shows

•100-dot history: each tap adds a new dot and shifts the grid. Green = Accept, Red = Decline, Grey = not decided yet.

•Acceptance Rate: percent of accepts in your last 100 taps.

•Completion Rate: percent of accepts you did not unassign.

•Today’s Accepts: total accepts during this session.

Home Screen — Actions

•ACCEPT: logs an acceptance (green dot), shifts the grid, and increases Today’s Accepts.

•DECLINE: logs a decline (red dot) and shifts the grid.

•UNASSIGN: use immediately after an ACCEPT to mark it unassigned (drops Completion Rate by 1%).  Unassigned accepts appear as a diamond shape so they're easy to track!

•UNDO: reverses your most recent action. If the last action was ACCEPT, Today’s Accepts decreases by 1.

•RESET: clears the grid and counters (including Today’s Accepts). This can be undone by using the UNDO RESET button. This button can be removed, but all previous data will be lost!

•DOT FLOW: flips whether new dots appear on the right or left.

•MANAGE TODAY: opens the page to track KM/Mi, accepts, expenses, and earnings.

•10 DOT GRID: opens a compact 2×5 dot tracker with its own ACCEPT / DECLINE / UNDO / UNASSIGN and DOT FLOW, plus a 10-dot Acceptance Rate readout.

10 Dot Grid — Quick Tracker

•Two rows of 5 dots that shift with every tap; it is independent from the 100-dot grid (its own history and DOT FLOW).

•ACCEPT / DECLINE update this mini-grid and the 10-dot Acceptance Rate (changes in 10% steps).

•UNDO reverses your last mini-grid action. UNASSIGN is only available right after an ACCEPT (turns that last accept into a decline).

•DOT FLOW toggles which side new mini-dots appear on. Close with CLOSE.

Manage Today — Overview

•Track your driving session (start/finish), log expenses/earnings, and review histories with export options.

•Use the KM ⇄ Mi toggle to switch units. Values in KM/Mi history display as whole numbers and will be converted if previous history exists.

•You can use the RESET HISTORY button to clear all data. This is useful after the data has been exported at the end of the year. This can be undone by using the UNDO RESET button. This button can be removed, but all previous data will be lost!

•FINISH also logs Today’s Accepts to the Accept History and resets Today’s Accepts so you can start fresh.

Manage Today — Backup & Restore

•Open BACKUP & RESTORE from Manage Today to access backup tools.

•You can also restore by pasting your backup JSON into Restore From Backup.

General Tips
