## What is NC Quick Pass HOV?

Please Note: THIS APP IS NOT FOR MANAGING YOUR NC QUICK PASS ACCOUNT.
Separate registration and credentials are required for this app or you can use your login from www.ncquickpasshov.com.

The NC Quick Pass HOV mobile application allows users with an active NC Quick Pass transponder account the ability to declare High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) status and travel in the express lanes free of charge for declared trips when they have 3 or more occupants in the vehicle. The app is currently only available for NC Quick Pass customers for use in North Carolina on the I-77 Express Lanes.

In order to use the app, users must have an active NC Quick Pass transponder account in good standing and a properly installed transponder in the vehicle.  Users will need to register for a NC Quick Pass HOV account and provide the transponder number(s) and license plate number(s) for each vehicle.  Users may register up to five transponders and license plates per account.

Once registered, a simple interface allows users to declare HOV status and begin a trip, or declare a future HOV status by scheduling a trip.  Users may also extend or cancel active HOV status declarations.  Please note any new HOV status declarations, as well as changes to the status of existing HOV declarations, must be made at least 15 minutes prior to traveling in the express lanes.  

When a transponder(s) has an active HOV status, the home screen will display the amount of time remaining on the active “HOV ON” declaration status, as well as the time at which the HOV status will end.  If you are in the 15-minute time period after entering an HOV status declaration and before the HOV status is active, the countdown will show the amount of time until the HOV status becomes active, and will indicate a “PENDING” HOV status. 

Users are able to edit their NC Quick Pass HOV app account information, update their NC Quick Pass transponders associated with app as well as view past HOV declarations.  Users are also able to easily navigate to the NC Quick Pass website for NC Quick Pass transponder account management. 

IMPORTANT – This app should not be used while operating a motor vehicle. The user agrees to use the app responsibly and avert any interaction with the app on a mobile device while operating a motor vehicle.

### 1/5 — No Integration

*2023-01-13, version 1.5*

Horrible app with no integrations. I have to setup separate accounts and register vehicles in both ? Can’t look at my accounts on the app so jump over to your desktop and log into the other account. Terrible!  Should learn from the bank apps.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2023-01-06, version 1.5*

This is the worst app I’ve ever installed.  The design is hideous, it’s half broken, nothing is intuitive and it doesn’t even work!  I set my HOV status an hour before a trip, confirmed it was on and I still wound up with $20 in tolls being charged to my account.  What a joke.

### 1/5 — Lowest bidder Garbage

*2022-11-13, version 1.5*

Why do I have to create a new account when I necessarily have a Quick Pass account? And no social sign in either just stupid password and recovery requirements. The UI looks like a PowerPoint and nothing is sized right on anything bigger than an iPhone 5. 

 This lowest bidder scam of a contractor and the dumb state procurement officer who wrote the bid both fired.

### 1/5 — If I could I’d give negative stars

*2022-06-13, version 1.4*

It’s really that bad. Horrible UI, FaceID never works, and app constantly “forgets” passwords, requiring a password reset.

### 1/5 — It is actually that bad. Still.

*2022-05-07, version 1.4*

After reading all the other horrible reviews from three years ago I thought surely it must be better, but it is not.

Everything from signing up to using is clunky!For example the security questions are too long to be displayed from the drop downs and you have to guess the end of the question. Then your answers are case sensitive. The developers can’t parse a phone number to remove special characters and when you don’t, the error message is a generic “check all fields for correct data entry.” I know these are details, but this is what separates a good app from this garbage.

### 1/5 — NC Quick Pass App

*2022-05-05, version 1.4*

Don’t waste your time with this app. They claim that you can ride for free if you activate the app 15 minutes before your trip but the catch is that there must be 3 people in the the car.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-04-06, version 1.4*

One of the worst apps I have ever used.  UI is clunky, allows you to select something and then gives an error that you aren’t allowed to do it.  Doesn't have Face ID integration.  No improvements in the 2 years I’ve had to use it.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2022-03-09, version 1.3*

Tells me I’ve tried to log in too many times, even though I only tried once. Crashes when I try to reset password.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2021-10-29, version 1.3*

Works fine for me!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2021-09-15, version 1.3*

App does not work. Reset password on portal multiple times. Uninstalled and installed the app.. Just does not work and the portal does not allow you to record your trip as HOV.. :(
