## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 5/5 — Awesome and useful!

*2026-08-11*

Super useful and clear and easy to use. Way better than the other Apps and easier to use. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Best traffic app around!

*2026-08-08*

I’ve used lots of traffic notification apps but this is the best traffic app I’ve used. Gives live updates and send notifications so you know exactly what’s on your route of travel before you go. I can set a custom area to get on the notifications of only the areas I want.

### 5/5 — Best traffic app

*2026-07-31*

Really good interface. I like that it lets me schedule my notification hours to adjust to my work commute days. Cleanest traffic app in the App Store. Push notifications are short, sweet and to the point and I get the notification within seconds. Would definitely recommend this over any other traffic app!

### 5/5 — Game changer for traffic incident apps

*2026-07-28*

This app is phenomenal for pretty much everyone that drives regularly but especially those of us who commute to work. Detours is one of those apps you don’t realize you need until you start using it. The interface is clean, fast, and incredibly easy to navigate. No lag whatsoever like other traffic incident apps. It gives me a heads-up on road closures and traffic issues before they become a problem, which has saved me time and frustration on multiple occasions going to and coming from work. The information is accurate, updates quickly, and makes planning my routes much easier. Highly recommend this app to anyone who wants to stay ahead of the road instead of getting stuck because of unexpected closures. Excellent work by the developers!

### 5/5 — Great at what it does

*2026-07-28*

It sends me push notifications for new incidents around me which other apps typically charge for. Setting a radius and filtering by a specific highway is awesome because I only receive push notifications for the highway I drive on. The ability to draw a custom zone is awesome, definitely check this app out. It’s better than the others and offers plain English CHP logs so I actually know what’s going on instead of reading random jargon.
