Differences Between CoyoteGO Desktop and the CoyoteGO Mobile App

Though the functionality is almost the same, there are few small differences:

  • To properly use CoyoteGO on your mobile device, you will need to download the CoyoteGO app in the App Store or in Google Play. Though you can access CoyoteGO with a web browser on your mobile device, we strongly recommend you download the app for a user-friendly experience. Desktop users do not need to download anything.
     
  • The CoyoteGO mobile app will prompt users to select "enable location" upon logging in. You will not be able to search and book loads unless you enable your device’s location.
