Minor Bug Fixes??

What a worthless app. Said ten minutes crossing at Ped West and I went up there and the line was a mile long. Why don't you get rid of this app? The only reason I gave it one star is because I had to. What a worthless app and this certainly wasn't the first time. Why didn't you leave the app the way it was before your lousy updates that screwed it all up??

Helpful and Functional

Border wait times used to be correct and the app now back to WORKING.

Garbage

I have used this app for years, and it continues to get worse every day. Now you cannot find port of entries listed! Blank! I deleted the app and reinstalled it, and it's still blank! It has not been updated in four years, as far as I know!

No Real Information

Not even better than nothing if you’re trying to plan when to cross.

CBP Agency is very dishonest

The state department sells passport cards under the premise that it gives you access to ready lane but in reality CBP @ San Ysidro harms vulnerable pedestrian traffic by denying access to ready lanes by pedestrians and only offers it to automobiles. This targets the poor, handicapped and those of color. The data put into this app is dishonest just like the CBP Port Directors putting the false information into the app abusing the public’s trust in their institutions. Fraudulent reporting of ready lanes being open for pedestrians
