Only shows San Francisco area

This app used to be the perfect place to know what’s going on ahead of us in a timely manner, even letting us know the lanes that are affected. Unfortunately it only covers the San Francisco area. No longer shows Southern California area. 😞

It’s not accurate

It dose not keep you updated on any traffic collisions. In or around your area.
Don’t bother downloading this app like I did. Safe yourself

Teach issue

The app crashed. Need help update

What happened??

Was a great resource a couple years back when it worked. Now the app seems to immediately crash when attempting to open it. Assumed there was an update, although nothing found. Hope the creator catches on.

Worked but not anymore

Was working but now as of 5/2/25 app no longer opens. No tech support. No updates. Big bummer

Something broke

Using version 1.7 and while it has some idiosyncrasies, such as having to refresh the list of incidents to get something in my area (LA) versus San Francisco, it’s been useful on more than one occasion and I appreciate the effort that must go into these to create them in the first place.
It worked for a period after the recent iOS upgrade (18.4.1 on iPhone 15 Plus), and as recently as the first part of the week of April 28, but now (5/2/25) the app won’t open. The screen will flash like it’s trying to open, but then it goes away.

No local

There no settings for my local area

Location is not saved

Each time I log on, the app only locates to the Bay Area. I have reduced the mileage and it does not change to show nearby traffic.

It doesn’t work anymore

Used to work, doesn’t get local info anymore

Update

I cannot access the incidents, missing from app

Went downhill

I used to use the app for traffic incidents in my area no matter where I was and I loved it but ever since an update (I’m guessing) it only shows incidents in the San Francisco/Bay Area.

CHP

App will no longer let me get local accidents or road closures Why is it not working.

Does'nt Work

Even though I have settings set to use current location within 30 miles, it's showing me incidents 100 miles away but nothing close to my house, even when other apps are showing incidents within my 30 mile range.

Was a great app

Now it’s useless. Unless you are near San Francisco, or Sacramento. That’s the only area that is showing up on the app. It was great for the OC, Barstow and Needles area.

Gone bad

I am not seeing reports on accidents I witnessed that involved 3 cars an a number of CHP on major roads. This app used to be reliable

What happened?

Ironically this app was fantastic. It not only warned about traffic issues, it let you know how bad it was, vehicles involved but most importantly what lanes were blocked so you could move accordingly. However, recently it has no coverage for Southern California. It only shows incidents around San Francisco. Unless it starts functioning properly again I’ll be deleting it. Sad… it was wonderful.

Don’t bother

The app is currently useless.

The update is bad

Idk ever since the update I haven’t been able to get accidents and reports like before. When I would see a back up. Right away I’d be able to pull up this app and I could see what was the hold up. How many cars involved and lots of other info like body in 3rd lane, motorcycle down,etc. Not enough info now when it comes to the 91, 55, 5 freeways. If it doesn’t get better soon. I’ll get rid of it. This use to be one of my favorite apps.

No longer working

Does not track my location only shows accidents in San Francisco, San Jose, and Sacramento areas of California

Need new update

Please update you map to show incidents that happen in Southern California like it use to.
