Curious widget choice *2025-12-06, version 2.8.0* The app is great at its core function. I find it strange that you don’t have a widget like the larger “Directions” widget that shows travel time to multiple places instead of distance. The app is called ETA and is all about time but you focus on distance?! Just an odd decision that’s all ### 2/5 — What’s the point of *2025-11-17, version 2.8.0* Despite my best efforts, I still cannot figure out a use case for this app. What do I need an ETA app for if it cannot adjust the time for traffic? It merely repeats what Maps already shows: how long it will take to reach a given destination. It would be far more useful (in other words, useful at all) if the app showed the ETA adjusted for the time you actually need to leave. ### 4/5 — Super App *2025-10-08, version 2.8.0* Super App. Nach dem letzten Update können auch andere Apps für die Navigation ausgewählt werden. Schön wäre es, wenn hier auch Sygic verwendet werden könnte. ### 3/5 — Want To Love But… *2025-10-02, version 2.8.0* The idea is great. It’s like having geographic bookmarks for your car, with traffic factored in. And no data collection is a *huge* plus in my book. However, the integration with navigation apps other than Apple Maps does not work. Other choices are unclickable. Heck, as I discovered today, even the Leave A Review link doesn’t seem to work. And to top it off, emails for help have gone unanswered. Sad. ### 3/5 — It I a great app, but… *2025-09-27, version 2.8.0* I use this app diligently when traveling for work. Always adding my hotel, job site, and airport to make it super simple to get to where I need to be in an unfamiliar city. Is there a limit of destinations on apple CarPlay? Only had of them display there. I wish I could view all of them to make it super simple when driving. ### 3/5 — Good: but a question remains *2025-08-31, version 2.7.8* A useful little app that perhaps doesn’t get the publicity it deserves. One thing which irritates is the seeming inability to alter the order of one’s chosen destinations. They can be deleted, yes. But if you add a new one, however important it is to you and no matter how well used, it still goes to the bottom end of your list. I’ve raised this point with the developer but didn’t even receive the courtesy of a response. Has anyone found a way to alter the order in which destinations appear? ### 3/5 — Widget doesn’t work properly *2025-06-24, version 2.7.8* I have used this app for a few years and it’s generally good. I purchased the calendar connection and in app it works great. I set up the calendar widget and it doesn’t work properly. It doesn’t add the extra buffer minutes. The widget has one time to leave and the app has it 5 minutes earlier. Also when I press the widget, it opens the app and then the map app but it won’t let me “Go.” It shows “Steps” instead. Edit: the issue is with Apple Maps. I switched the navigation app to Google Maps and did not have the same issue with steps. ### 2/5 — Abbandonata *2025-06-16, version 2.7.8* L’app sembra essere stata lasciata a sé stessa, senza aggiornamenti significativi. Un restyling sarebbe davvero gradito: rinnovare le icone e migliorare le animazioni del tempo di percorrenza darebbe nuova vita all’esperienza utente ### 3/5 — Widget doesn’t work properly *2025-05-02, version 2.7.8* I have used this app for a few years and it’s generally good. I purchased the calendar connection and in app it works great. I set up the calendar widget and it doesn’t work properly. It doesn’t add the extra buffer minutes. The widget has one time to leave and the app has it 5 minutes earlier. Also when I press the widget, it opens the app and then the map app but it won’t let me “Go.” It shows “Steps” instead. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2025-03-25, version 2.7.8* I like this app and having it on my watch. It needs to give you the quickest route to your set location by default. I have 2 ways I can get to work everyday. I check the app, and it's just telling me one, unless I click in and look at all the possible routes. It should just show you the quickest. ### 2/5 — Does not work with Watch *2025-03-18, version 2.7.8* I used to rely and love this app for its watch complication. However, the complication hasn’t worked in almost a year. Hope someone makes an ETA that works so I can make the switch ### 2/5 — Widget manquant *2024-12-31, version 2.7.8* Avant iOS 18, il y avait un widget avec le temps de trajet : il a disparu très dommage, obligé systématiquement d’ouvrir l’application maintenant….. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — NEEDS MORE UPDATES *2026-07-27, version 2.8.0* This app is a good idea it’s not loading my iPhone imports plus it’s not updating the distance and current ETAs not working taking all day to fix this manually. I’d like a refund unless it can be fixed. Thanks ### 1/5 — App Broken *2025-12-03, version 2.8.0* Setting up a commute widget on iPhone causes crash and Apple watch widget displays incorrect travel times or doesn’t even work. Pls fix. ### 1/5 — Unable to import locations *2025-09-25, version 2.8.0* I'm unable to import locations from my iPhone app running on ios 26 onto my Apple Watch SE 2, running Watch OS 26. Whenever I try to do that, the screen shows as loading and never completes. Please fix this issue asap. When I try creating locations manually on my Apple Watch, the ETA predictions differ widely from the iPhone and doesn't show the most up to date eta, which defeats the purpose of having a watch face. ### 1/5 — Home screen widget no bueno *2025-07-30, version 2.7.8* I bought this, hoping to get real time travel ETA info on my home. Screen to monitor traffic and what not. Unfortunately, the widget doesn’t work. It says that it requires set up, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to do so. Tapping on the widget Quickly opens and then crashes the app. Just thought I’d give a heads up to anyone else tossing five dollars out there for this. FWIW, it looks like iOS 26 is bringing the basic widget functionality to the Maps app ### 1/5 — calendar option crashes it *2025-05-28, version 2.7.8* The app crashes if you give calendar permissions. emailed support but no response and I could not receive a refund. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-04-09, version 2.7.8* The app doesn’t work correctly on my Apple Watch. I want my $5 back ### 1/5 — Watch app doesn't work *2025-03-30, version 2.7.8* The watch app doesn't work and it used to. It won't sync with my phone and it won't update times. Location services are on. Such a shame. I'll re review if they fix it. ### 1/5 — Poor support, Application not working *2025-03-27, version 2.7.8* good morning, this is the fourth time I send an email for assistance, but I see that you continue not to answer me, I also wrote to you on Twitter but you pretend nothing happened, could you be a little more kind and professional?, Answer and kindness, education and also courtesy, it's been a week that your application no longer works on my Apple Watch series two, everything is blocked, while on my iPhone 16 Pro it still works correctly, could you tell me what's happening? I use the Apple Watch a lot, much more from my phone let me know thanks., At the moment I give a low rating because I am very disappointed with the support, since they have not answered me for several days the application no longer works, good morning, it's been a month since I wrote here for help, since the application does not work at all on my Apple Watch Ultra 2, but I notice that you still have not updated the application, more or less everyone has updated the applications continuously, but you currently do not care much about my problem and this is something truly without justification Buongiorno, questa è la quarta volta che mando un'e-mail per assistenza, ma vedo che continui a non rispondermi, ti ho anche scritto su Twitter ma fai finta che non sia successo nulla, potresti essere un po' più gentile e professionale?, Risposta e gentilezza, educazione e anche cortesia, è passata una settimana che la tua applicazione non funziona più sul mio Apple Watch serie due, tutto è bloccato, mentre sul mio iPhone 16 Pro funziona ancora correttamente, potresti dirmi cosa sta succedendo? Uso molto l'Apple Watch, molto di più dal mio telefono fammi sapere grazie. good morning, it's been a month since I wrote here for help, since the application does not work at all on my Apple Watch Ultra 2, but I notice that you still have not updated the application, more or less everyone has updated the applications continuously, but you currently do not care much about my problem and this is something truly without justification 27/03/25 Good morning, I've been writing to you for 1 month now, "ETA" doesn't work anymore on my "apple watch ultra 2", while on my "Iphone 16 Pro", your app works well, ask for help, thanks ### 1/5 — Pas fonctionnel sur la montre *2024-11-04, version 2.7.7* On espérait une amélioration avec la dernière version mais visiblement les développeurs n’utilisent pas l’application sur leur montre 😭 La complication calendrier affiche le lieu mais le temps de trajet ne s’affiche pas 😭 Quand à la complication « travel time » Elle affiche bien le temps, mais si tu te déplaces elle affiche toujours le même temps et ne bascule pas entre domicile et bureau Seule la version iPhone fonctionne 😡 ### 1/5 — Why did I pay for this? *2024-09-03, version 2.7.6* Widgets just crash, so glad I got scammed by you troglodytes👍 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Where are the promised updates?? *2026-08-09, version 2.8.0* I am hearing of new updates in the works for months to help alleviate the 12 etas limitation within widget. We will now have folders for better organization. With that new update we have been told that we will be able to openly communicate with support through application. Also, when u click on a location it gives you three travel options, not sure how u can select which option you want to choose or if it just automatically picks the shortest one. Can we select which route we want to take ? Would also love option to sort by distance from your current location when looking at a list. Can you please share ETA (HaHa) on when this new version will be released or if a test flight version will be released. Thanks. ### 5/5 — Thank-you *2026-07-25, version 2.8.0* Thank-you for continuing to support this amazing app. I hope you continue to do so. ### 5/5 — Excellent app and developer *2026-06-12, version 2.8.0* Great app for anyone who travels to places more than once! Sweet feature lets you see the ETA’s of all your saved locations. I fly drones and this helps determine where to travel based on traffic, etc. Highly recommended! ### 5/5 — App comes in handy and gets better with each update *2026-03-03* I am hearing of new updates in the works for months to help alleviate the 12 etas limitation within widget.

Apologies for not being as responsive as we should on X and email. Our inbox is overflowing with users thinking our we manage visa applications for the UK (for the country's Electronic Transit Authorisation) and we get 100s of these a day. This sadly has made responding almost impossible. We do have a new version coming and with that we'll move our support into the app. In the meantime communicating via this review system is probably the easiest :) To your questions - yes lists/folders are coming as is the ability to order via distance. CarPlay has been hugely successful for us and we want to add more to that experience too. Thanks so much for your support. ### 5/5 — App comes in handy and gets better with each update *2026-02-08, version 2.8.0* Please provide an avenue for communication with your customers as emails go unanswered and you haven’t been live on X. Happy to hear in one of the review reply’s you mentioned categorization is coming, I assume through folders. Hopefully this will assist with CarPlay’s current limitation of 12 items. Also, when u click on a location it gives you three travel options, not sure how u can select which option you want to choose or if it just automatically picks the shortest one. Would also love option to sort by distance from you when looking at a list. ### 5/5 — Quick way to navigate to favorite places and provide a glimpse of how long it will take. *2025-04-26, version 2.7.8* Hope they continue to upgrade application. Very useful. Bring some more icon choices when setting up navigation link within control center. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2024-12-31, version 2.7.8* Absolutely love this app overall. Excellent support and updates keep coming. So simple and makes sense. Only issue I have is I have quite a list and only the first 9 locations seem to update on launch. Hopefully there will be a way to refresh a location further in my list. Please. Please. Please and thank you!!! ### 5/5 — Fantastic update *2024-11-12, version 2.7.8* I’ve been using this app since it came out. It keeps getting better and more functional with every update! ### 5/5 — ETA is a must needed app .. 💯 *2024-11-04, version 2.7.7* Love the app .. futuristic with a fine tune of simplicity yet straight forward to give you exactly what you need ; to prepare for the travel that lies ahead … What I would love to be included if possible in later updates is .. alarm triggered travel time . Where you’d be able to set such alarm to start and or prioritize a destination for the duration requested .. and be present on Apple Watch’s Live Activities For example : • Good morning “ insert name “ - You have a travel time alert set for 7am for “ work “ ( reminders - 1hr / 30mins / 15mins Before travel time is active ) .. - your travel time is now active for “ dinner with in-laws “ Location : Cheesecake Factory. Travel time to Wing Stop will be active in 30mins , would you like to cancel ? . ( within making alarm ; a toggle button to give option to continue/cancel requested travel time ) - travel time is now active for “ morning run “ .. 21 minutes to the finish line / partly cloudy with wind. • Good afternoon: “ insert name “ -Travel time is now set for “ new job interview “ tomorrow at 6:30a - travel time suggested “ chic fil a “ Light traffic / sunny ( recent visits / common commute ) - travel time to “ Top Golf “ has been adjusted due to accident reported , suggested route for earlier arrival .. ( toggle button for suggested alternative route and also toggle button to have such travel time prioritize for a duration period window you’ve selected 2pm-5pm via Live Activities on Apple Watch or iPhones lock screen after time duration requested is over … priority is minimum ) Honestly with these small add ons it’ll make one ; more involved in the app and create multiple “ alarm travel times “ just to better themselves with their ETA lol .. with additional alerts and notifications this will definitely aid the cause .. ### 5/5 — Outstanding Unique ETA App!!! *2024-09-01, version 2.7.6* A few weeks ago I stated how great this app really really is! Believe me that has not changed! I use this app everyday and it’s data has for me been right on the nose know matter what time of day! It’s not always now days you can find an app that is helpful to your daily travel that’s correct! This one is really is. I would like to thank the Developer for putting out such a Unique Outstanding Design 5 Star ⭐️ app. You can tell that this Developer has put a great Deal of Time hard Work Sweat and yes Love into the coding of this Software for you myself and our family. So with that I would like to Thank the Developer for His Dedication and Commitment on His unique Design App. With that I simply want to Tip my Hat 🎩 to The Developer and say “ Thank’s “ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
