Great Before The Ads Were Added

This is an excellent app. Unfortunately the developer added advertisement and what is quite possibly the most obtrusive way I've seen. Go to look at a camera and you get a full page add that sits there for a few seconds before even letting you close it. I hardly use this anymore because of that. There are apps that use banners and things but don't make me stop when I'm doing.

You’re Missing Out!

I have nothing but positive things to say about the app. I’ll keep it short and simple. If you live in CO, this is a must have! It honestly should be required and hopefully one day it’ll integrate with CarPlay. It’s truly invaluable, and I rely on it heavily. Don’t hesitate and download it.

I’ve been using this app for as long as I can remember. Recently I moved and noticed the cameras on the highway by my house were outdated. Lookup and found they upgraded them to live stream. I reached out to the apps support to get this corrected and it was fixed in 1 hour (adjusted because Apple has to approve the update, with that took 7 hours ish). I got an email back within 30 minutes they were working on updating, a follow up 30 minutes later that it has been completed and pending approval. I got a email once Apple approved it that I’d need to update my app. I received another followup 1 hour after that ensuring I saw their email that’s it’s been fixed.

Everyone should use this app! It’s robust. You can see travel notifications, snow plow locations, live stream highway cameras, radar, add widgets to your home screen, and so much more.

I cannot believe this app is free. You can hate me for saying this, but I’d pay for it. You can click the settings wheel and “tip the developer”. The max tip was $2.99. I wish there was a custom amount. I sent x4 back to back and then it wouldn’t allow me to do anymore.

Excellent!!!

The CDOT app is simply EXCELLENT! This app has been completely through through, excellent user interface and usability! Living in the Mtn’s we use this app daily for road conditions, and to check and see where the plows are operating.. It is rare to find apps that are this well thought through, easy to use, and filled with useful information! Well done - Developer, and Well done - CDOT for making this a very useful app!

Response from developer

Thank you for the review!

OTR

I’m a long haul truck driver and couldn’t find a decent road condition app until I got this one. This is by far the best road condition app I’ve ever used. It gives me up to date chain requirements so I can find a safe place to stop until no chains are required. Great app.

So helpful to have on my phone

I really appreciate being able to have road conditions and pictures on my phone so I can use them while we travel.

One app to rule them all

As an Over The Road truck driver who travels across CO/WY weekly, this app has proven to be near perfect. Not only has it combined the data I usually get from numerous apps but it also makes getting camera views so much easier. Also one of the main features it has is the notification when a road alert has been removed, which isn’t available with the official state 511 apps. What used to take a good amount of time to trip plan is now accomplished in just a couple of minutes. Developer was quick to respond to a suggestion I had and followed up with me. Highly recommend it for anyone traveling.

Thank you for the review!!!

Always room for improvement

Thanks for creating the app and giving us all help out there when we need it most. Your up to date communication with the public is vital for public. Always room for improvement and to advertise to get in all drivers handhelds/mobiles phones/tablets for use. Sending updated communication when transport issues come up is always helpful and help us drivers out there which prevents chaos.

Mixed feelings

Downloaded this app for a weekend trip to Colorado. I wanted to stay in the know of the weather conditions we’d approach throughout our drive. It’s 10:45pm and the last time the app updated was at 8:00pm. I keep refreshing in hopes it will finally update as the roads are getting worse through our drive. Ended up downloading a different CO weather app that is updating.

Disappointed and hope to dispute the charge if the app never updates. If this wasn’t an issue, it’s a nice app with all the info you’d want while traveling.

Fix those bugs!

There is no better

This has been my Go To map for info being a trucker through the mountains

Awesome App

I love this app so much! Whereas CDOT’s website is confusing and hard to pull all the data together, this one is sophisticated and intuitive. I love it and I love its accuracy and I love that it’s making everybody in Colorado safer on the roads.
