Love the widget. It allows me to have camera feeds on my Home Screen. Double this w live traffic status for visual confirmation and drivers will have a lot of info before leaving ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2024-01-31* Extremely straightforward and easy to use. I like the map feature where you can browse cameras in a specific area to add. ### 5/5 — Simple and very user friendly. *2024-01-31* The layout is minimal and for apps like these it’s a great feature. Super easy to use and so far no bugs. Streaming is smooth. Good for monitoring different routes, like to work or roads you frequent. I will be making good use of this in the future. ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2024-01-31* Excellent app great execution works perfectly with no issues!!!! Five stars all around ### 5/5 — Great app that fills an important need! *2024-01-31* Very clean interface with intuitive layout. Saves me trying to view my camera feed through the 511ny website on my phone, which is a pain to say the least. Fantastic app! ### 5/5 — Excellent tool for commuting! *2024-01-31* I commute about an hour for work, which can be a challenge in the winter. it can be difficult to gauge if I should make the drive, wondering if the roads are plowed, etc. But this helps solve that issue! The interface is simple and easy to use. It literally took me a minute to select the cameras on my commute route and save them to easily check later. You can make multiple collections to save and reference later which is pretty neat. The best part is.. it’s free! Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Genius *2024-01-30* This is an absolute revolution for humanity. I appreciate the time that went into developing this. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — $$$ *2025-05-06* Demands subscription for text notification which until lately was free. ### 4/5 — Terrible app. *2025-06-30* It never live streams!! ### 4/5 — More Eastern cams *2024-02-02* Love it for my area but told my brother about it and he can't get anything in Massachusetts. I would have given 4.5 or even 4.9. It helped me to see traffic ahead but didn't show RADAR TRAPS or where police were hiding like WAZE does. ### 5/5 — ❤️💙💜🧡 *2026-01-26* GOOD ENOUGH ### 5/5 — 511 *2025-07-16* I like this app. Very much it shows all the roadwork in New York State This weekend is the Syracuse national car show and this app will come in handy for a lot of drivers going to the area ### 5/5 — Great Dispatcher Tool *2024-04-22* I am a Tow Truck dispatcher and this app is one of the best tools I use to get my drivers quickly and safely to breakdowns and accidents in a timely manner. ### 5/5 — Awesome way to stream New York traffic live cams *2024-03-08* Connects to live feed to view New York traffic cams and see the current traffic in live time.
