  • Horrendous

    This app update has made it less accurate, more confusing, and ultimately more dangerous than the previous iteration that we all knew and loved.
  • New interface too cluttered

    It’s like the programmers went wild and tried to add in all the things but it’s become bloated and at times unusable. We just want to know if there’s black ice on the road or blowing snow, etc. Please consider simplifying it again.
  • Accuracy Issues

    The new UI looks good but the map wasn’t accurate today. We’ve had snowy/icy conditions in Bozeman area over the last 4 hours and the app still lists everything in green (dry roads). This isn’t accurate and I’m hoping you guys can get it sorted out as I really relied on the old version for travel decisions.

  • Slow and clunky

    This app is slow and clunky, the older version was fast and responsive, I hope this is worked on in time as it is frustrating and almost not worth the hassle most of the time.
  • Hard to navigate!

    Why did you have to change….the old version was so much easier to obtain an accurate report!!
  • Ruined a useful app

    The previous app was elegant and easy to navigate. I actually was at a conference where it was used to use it as an example of good and universal design for all skills and user.

    This is clunky and impossible to use while traveling, maps are no longer intuitive and difficult to decipher. My older family members have given up using it.

    Very disappointed at the Gianforte administration here. No reason to waste time and money replacing something that wasn’t broken.

  • Huge Improvement

    This updated app is light years ahead of the old version. Far more intuitive and user friendly. Super simple to get text descriptions of what to expect as well as weather in the area.

  • Weather conditions map

    This is terrible. The old map was so simple. Look at the color and you know what to expect. I used the old one all the time because we travel often. I can’t even figure this new system out. Please go back to a map like the old one that is easier to navigate
  • Difficult to Use

    Found the website hard to navigate, very hard to get useful information, and one can’t see the big picture. To me this app is next to worthless.
  • Terrible

    I wish I could have given this zero stars. This app is so hard to read and understand. Not user friendly. Please go back to the old color scheme.
