  • Updated

    Although the initial update left this app useless, there has since been another update which is much more user friendly. You can now sort by distance, or even by CHP area. Thanks for the fix!
  • Great and really helpful!

    Update: Nice to get a response from the developer indicating he’s working on updating this app. The highway camera feature has been restored. Thanks! . . . .

    WHERE ARE THE HIGHWAY CAMERAS?!?! This app WAS great until I installed the latest update yesterday. Now when I select highway cameras, there’s nothing there (says “0”) I really relied on the visual especially of those highways in the high country.
    Such a bummer not to have them. Please bring them back!

    I downloaded this app the other day as we were planning a trip over Donner Summit and I wanted to stay on top of the road conditions. Each time I checked, the info was current with the requirement for chains/snow tires and the storm conditions. The app is easy to navigate. You choose from the list of either interstate highways, state highways or other roads. You then get up to the minute conditions. Perfect! I also like that you can link to the highway cameras that are available for that highway to get a visual of conditions. Also, information is provided for rest stops and what amenities are available. Thanks for a great, reliable app!!

  • Update

    Ever since the update it is not very good. in a week I use this app prob over 300x a week in my work field and so do my co workers they also are complaining, we all know it will not be changed back but it’s worth a try I will be uninstalling it unless you provide a link to get rid of update again it’s not as it needs to be I’m involved in Law-Enforcement so pretty much a tool for us!!

  • Unhappy with new update

    I am not one to write a review, but I felt a need to express my concerns. Like many this was one of my favorite apps, I used it daily before getting on the freeway. I would click on recent incidence and it showed me immediately if there were any wrecks. Now I just get a big map that I have yet to figure out. I am hoping that with future updates you will bring back the recent incidence part!!

  • Disappointed

    I originally switched to this app years ago because the other app stopped working. Are used this out in the field and it was working great… Nice and brainless. You turn it on, you get your info, you turn it off.
    However, the developer redesign the app and it seems like it takes forever to load and only 1/4 of the time it actually works the way it supposed to. I had to download another app just so I could have something at work. And after several updates over several months, seems to be the same. This app is now officially deleted off my phone.

  • Great app, evolution of a developer

    This a great app, I use it almost daily. It’s been fun to watch the app improve over the years. While not all updates have been stellar user experience improvements, and sometimes a bit backwards, all the setbacks have been temporary and I’m happy to use it almost daily. Congrats on a great app and keep it up, I’m a fan!

  • New version

    Horrible. Why did you mess with a perfectly good app. You now need a PhD to use this app. I have no idea how to navigate and find incidents. You could have at least provided some simple
    Instructions.
  • Bad update

    I’ve really liked using this app until the most recent update. Very hard to use while driving. Not user friendly. I liked being able to bring up a list of incidents nearby but I can’t do that now. Please bring the list option back. Appreciate the efforts and like the cameras and rest stop locations.

  • New UI

    I used to love this app and used it daily. I am just not liking the new UI release. The incidents aren’t easily accessible and not limited to my former 60 mile radius setting. It may be operator error but I’m not finding it to be intuitive, sorry
  • Useless after update

    So many problems with this update! Nothing makes sense with the new UI. Clicking on some incidences only makes the map zoom, but won’t open the details of the incidence. The app also apparently thinks I’m currently in LA, but I can’t find any settings or options. There are no helpful instructions. Sorting by distance only shows me things 324 miles away and turns on driving mode, which activates an immediate loud voice (very uncool).
    I used to use this app to check for accidents and road conditions because it was easy to see a list and map of any potential issues. Now I guess I’ll just have to use Waze for that too. Will delete the app in a few days if it’s not updated again, but I am not feeling too optimistic. Sadly, it’s really, really bad.
