Can’t turn it off

This app is not great. Once you open it, it sits in the background constantly on. You can’t log out of it or turn it off. If I want to church the roads before my trip I can, but then I have to power my phone off in order to stop the app from running. I’ve stopped using the app because I don’t want to have to power off my phone every time.

511 app

You ruined a perfectly good road conditions map to use during winter months. I don’t like this one never have & just now getting around to writing a review. If it’s not broken why change it. Someone just made $$ off the change. Thanks for listening.

Surprisingly useful

Never expected a government developed app to be so well done. I’ve got to give it to the department of transportation on this one.
