Odometer
Give the trailer its own odometer
Your trailer has no dashboard. loadmate gives it an odometer of its own, so bearings, tires and services count down from real miles.
Free on iOS and Android. Explore a fully set-up demo rig before you add your own.
The trailer's miles live in nobody's head
Roll off a long interstate haul and the truck's dash tells you exactly how far it's traveled. Ask how many miles are on the travel trailer behind it and nobody can say for sure.
Yet the trailer is the asset with the distance-based jobs, bearing repacks, brake checks, tire changes, all counting down from a number nobody has been tracking.
A dashboard the trailer never had
A reading that belongs to the trailer
The odometer lives on the trailer itself, with its own history. Swap tow vehicles, borrow a friend's truck for a move. The miles stay with the trailer they belong to.
Trips move it forward
Finish a towed trip and answer one odometer prompt. The trip's distance lands on the trailer's reading as well as the truck's. A mistyped low number gets filed as history; the reading never goes backwards.
Distance jobs count down from the truth
Repack-the-bearings and every other by-the-mile task runs off the trailer's real reading, and the pre-trip sweep can tell you a job will fall due partway through the trip you're planning.
From an App Store review of loadmate v1

Common questions
- Do I need Pro to keep the trailer's own odometer?
Yes. loadmate is free to download and explore, and Pro is the single subscription that lets you add your own trailer and keep its odometer, services and history. There are no feature tiers to choose between.
- Can I see how it works before I subscribe?
Yes. Every screen runs on a fully working demo rig, a Ford F-150 and travel trailer, including a trailer with its own odometer reading and history you can browse. There's no trial clock, so you can take your time.
- Does the app add up the miles, or do I log them by hand?
Finish a towed trip and answer one odometer prompt. The trip's distance lands on the trailer's reading as well as the tow vehicle's. A mistyped low number is filed as history and the reading never goes backwards.
- Will my countdowns still show when I'm out of range?
Yes. In a low-signal spot loadmate falls back to the last synced reading, so you still see what's due rather than an empty screen, and it catches up once you're back in range.
- Is it on iOS and Android?
Yes. loadmate is free to download on both the App Store and Google Play.
