Doesn’t open

Occasionally when trying to use the app, it flashes on the screen, then quits. Very helpful—when it works, useless when it doesn’t.

Does not show extended traffic control

There are 2 major construction projects, one on 299 East and one on 89 up by McCloud, neither are shown on this app. Both projects have 30+ minute delays in both directions.

Very helpful

Easy to see road conditions before driving

Best traffic app

Love this app, never fails to give me info, many time well before my scanner, but when I hear something on the scanner, sure enough it’s here with way more detail. Keep in mind this is targeted for California, some of the reviews criticizing are out of state, not fair to ratings. Keep up the great work!

Worthless app

Pathetic. I wouldn’t pay one cent for this.

Great app to see what’s causing the problem

This app is a must for anyone that deals with traffic. I don’t normally write reviews, but this has been a life saver many times. It’s a great way to see what’s causing the actual issue so you can determine yourself whether or not to chance it or take another direction.

Good app

Very easy to use

One of the best info apps ever!

Download this asap, it will not disappoint! I am an avid scanner and peruse other outlets to get more info. Everything that I hear on the scanner, this app gives incredible detailed info. Love it!

Not working

It’s not working

Next…

Ended up deleting the app 2/15/24

After the update that was released, they wanted you to pay for a subscription to use The camera section when it was free at the beginning.

Great app! So helpful!

A very needed useful app!

Still some issues with accessing roadside cameras resulting in immediate crash when selecting the Camera page.

No working

No, see cameras

Landslides and flooding

I need timely reports on Hwy 166 between Bakersfield, Ca and Santa Maria, Ca. Luckily I found out from the news that they had landslides before travel because it wasn’t showing on the app.

Doesn’t go out of LA area?

Extremely useful

I have been using this app since it first came out a few years ago and still use it to manage my commute between SoCal and the Central Coast. It has been an absolute godsend! The app isn’t designed to be overly intelligent, but it does an amazing job of aggregating data from many different sources. Keep in mind, the data is only as reliable as the source it’s pulling from. Fortunately, the jurisdictions I travel through seem to keep their data updated in a timely manner.

Very handy

Love the camera feature. The map is great with all the various alerts arr excellent. Only thing I found was a legend (but figured it out eventually).

What a waste of money.

I live in mammoth and work at june. Every time I’ve checked the road conditions, they’ve been updated the day before or more. For example. I just looked at the 395 and when I tapped it, it said updated 12/22. What good does that do me?!

Poor app

This app is not user friendly and is not half of what it claims to be.

This and Waze
