Useless
I’ve used this multiple times to estimate toll costs and it’s been wildly wrong each time. Last Friday night it said tolls would be $12 (which is already super high), but it ended up costing $30. Again, useless. The express lanes of 66 were built for rich people it seems.
Don’t trust it- Tricks you into using the toll road
During rush hour It first displays low amounts like $2.25 every time I first run a toll estimate. When I reprocess it even seconds later, it’s always much higher, like $16. Such a scam.
Good, not great
The app does what it says it does; it lets you know the current toll at a specific time and date as well as historical information. This could be a great app with the following improvements:
1. Saved trips
2. Notifications to tell you the toll at a certain user specified time or when the toll exceeds / drops below a certain cost
3. Integration with other travel apps
4. A "refresh" button after a toll is calculated so the user doesn't have to keep inputting the same trip information over and over

Not well designed
Back to using the clunky website
Is this the best you can do VDoT
I got a link to this app from your official website, so I thought it must be good considering the +200 millions of revenue you make a year out of us.
Did you test this app before publishing it?
You can’t even change the time of the trip; it’s always resetting to 9:30am.

Absolutely horrible illogical design
Here are the 5 things to fix this app:
1) use gps figure out closest 66 entrance ramp. Default to this one in the direction of the toll. So if between Glebe and etc figure that I am heading direction of toll morning east. Afternoon west.
2) show 5 prices closest exit, farthest, and one in middle. Like billboards.
3)allow a Reminder set by user.
4)connect to ezpass show balance and history
Seriously this thing is horrible design. You can do much better.

Worthless
Despite date time picker, refuses to estimate tolls for next day or anything other than than current minute.
Must use other textual pickers for entry and exit instead of obvious solution of tapping on marked points on a map.
This app exemplifies the complete lack of understanding by government of IT Best Practices in use cases, UI/UX design, and visualization of data, or even understanding of human nature.
Big centralized bureaucratic government is a major problem in our society, not a solution to problems.

You have got to be kidding me.
No live toll prices? No live times of how long on the road? The links go to a website saying to download the app? The map shown on one link isn’t device responsive? This is absolutely worthless.
Needs UX tlc
Needs to remember am and pm commute. Way too many taps without that, possible distracted driving hazard
Can’t adjust time
Can’t plan adjusting time to estimate a trip for the next day . It could be $17- $30.
This encourages distracted driving you can only check at the current time of what the tolls are .
There should be a pop up notification ,
Set time or times to push alerts of the current toll to see what the rates are ...
Ahhh forget it it will be over $20 anyway!
It reach $40 already . The sky is the limit no Cap! It’s not about traffic flow it’s about money. Every one person commuter should never go on this road . I guess that is the point of it . But the price is way to high to consider saving time and Gas.

Needless Taps
It displays the toll at the current time but is needlessly tap-happy. There are only 7 toll points so, if I launch the app at 7:30 AM, default to showing me a table of tolls for eastbound travel at the current time, with OPTIONS to change the time, on-and-off points, or direction. No taps necessary: just launch the app and see the tolls.

Worthless!
The app won’t calculate the cost of tolls even a few minutes ahead of the current time.
Good but will get better
This app will only get better once historical rates become available over a longer period of time along with more feedback from users. Wish there was a way to just directly enter times though - the spinning selection feels a bit cumbersome.
Partially works
Can estimate current times. If you move it up in time to estimate future travel in the PM while in AM, it will auto rollback to the exact time.
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback! At the current time, the app only has data available for the current time and historical times. Time entry is therefore limited to valid toll times from the current and backwards. If predictive tolls for future times become available, we will certainly grant access to them!
Basically useless
It only estimates the toll at the current time. Why does the app falsely imply you can adjust the time to receive estimates of a future toll amount but then resets to current time. It’s a useless and inoperable.
