### 3/5 — Fires

*2026-07-24, version 2.0.8*

Needs to show fires

### 3/5 — Camera’s hard to find

*2024-12-30, version 2.0.4*

Decent app with the acceptation that there  is no camera map layer. You need to know the name of the camera and perform a search. Then you “build” camera lists. Very clunky. Cameras are a very valuable part of Oregon’s Tripcheck system and should be easier to access here.

### 3/5 — Not up to date

*2024-11-21, version 2.0.4*

I-5 was closed and the app didn’t make any updates for over 8 hrs. Then the next morning, I got a notification the snow chain restrictions had been lifted and looked at the cameras to see vehicles moving. The chain restrictions were lifted at 5:19 am. It this app still showed the road closed at 7:35 am. This app is rarely reliable. I will just use it for the odot cameras and decide for myself

### 5/5 — Great trip check app

*2024-01-17, version 1.0.3*

I love being able to personalize which camera(s) I want to use.

### 5/5 — Best app I have found

*2024-01-17, version 1.0.3*

I was told about this app.  Didn’t think any app could compare to the ones I already have.  This app does all states for what I can tell.  It’s the only one I use.

### 5/5 — Must have!!

*2024-01-07, version 1.0.3*

Thank you for this app…it is perfect. A must have for winter travel

### 5/5 — So amazing!!

*2023-12-27*

I rarely rate apps, but this one is literally a life saver. I’ve complained for years that tripcheck needed an app. This is better than anything I could have imagined! Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Nice app!

*2023-11-18, version 1.0.2*

This app is a lot better for viewing the cams than the Trip Check Web Site. I have been looking for an app like this. Great job!

In the future, perhaps adding features such as the odot weather stations, travel times, and current VMS Sign messages would be very helpful. Then have a feature in this app to group together certain objects (cams, weather data, travel times, and VMS data).

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2023-10-11, version 1.0.2*

Had previous apps that allow you to save routes of cameras to scroll through that all eventually lost support and faded into the iOS compatibility abyss. Great to have a simple camera app that allows this function again! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — Great Resource

*2023-04-17, version 1.0.1*

Such a great app!   I love being able to group cameras for common trips and quickly scroll through to check conditions before setting out.  Thanks for making it so simple and ad-free!!

### 1/5 — Ripoff

*2026-02-21, version 2.0.7*

None of the cameras work. I’ve enabled 35. Only 2 work sometimes. The rest of them never. A real ripoff.

### 1/5 — Just use DOT.

*2026-02-19, version 2.0.7*

Doesn’t even show the 5” of snow on the pass… I’ll just stick with DOT website.  Thanks for taking my money

### 1/5 — Not a free app!

*2025-02-02, version 2.0.4*

This app sounds good when you first download it. When you actually try to use it, you have to pay to access the Oregon DOT cameras. The app forces you to select cameras on your route, but then you have to pay to access them after the first time. No option to just look at the cameras. This makes the app useless.

### 1/5 — Used to be great software

*2024-07-09*

This used to work great. My phone updated to the new version and it crashes the second it opens.

**Developer response:** Hi, the issue you are referring to was fixed in Version 2.0.3. Please download the latest update and the app will work as expected. 

Lastly, please consider editing your review when you experience the app working as it did before. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Known cans not shown on app map

*2024-01-14, version 1.0.3*

As I tried to select many known traffic cams in my area they were not shown on the map in the app.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2024-01-12, version 1.0.3*

Look at Utah DOT for ideas on how to improve

### 1/5 — Very limited

*2023-08-15, version 1.0.1*

Could only access one camera!

### 2/5 — Makes you pay for cameras

*2026-01-07, version 2.0.6*

Will let you add cameras of your commute to look at, then next day won’t let me see any cams and has a pop up to ask you to upgrade to premium for a fee. It’s not much, but still frustrating. I found a way to go to the cctv map to find cams, but it’s very glitchy. I assumed this was run by ODOT and it is not.

### 2/5 — Weather forecast?

*2024-11-23, version 2.0.4*

I got this app, paid for the annual subscription hoping to see road conditions on a certain road a few days out. I thought it would have a 7-10 day forecast and be able to anticipate which roads would have ice, snow, etc. I don’t see that when I use the app, however :(

### 2/5 — Layout

*2024-11-22, version 2.0.4*

While the app provides lots of info, and enough on the free side, it does not rotate the layout for tablet use.

### 5/5 — This was needed very much

*2026-02-18, version 2.0.7*

If I don’t have to travel in hazardous conditions, I don’t. There are times I have to be in my office 30+ plus miles from home. I’ve used tripcheck for years. Thank you for creating the app.

### 5/5 — User

*2025-11-28, version 2.0.6*

I like the fact that you can see WebCams of the road and what’s going on

### 5/5 — Great for us truck drivers!

*2025-10-20, version 2.0.6*

Fantastic app that makes it super convenient for truck drivers who need to check road conditions and check for chain law quickly! It was a huge help for me last winter as it will surely be again this winter! Thank you so much for the app and keep up the awesome work!

### 5/5 — Winter Snow

*2025-02-08, version 2.0.4*

This app is great for keeping track on your commute to your destination especially during the winter months because right now it’s snowing hard and it’s causing a lot of problems getting to your destinations but using the app you can see if the roads are closed and if delays are expected which makes it easier to plan ahead.

### 5/5 — Very handy app

*2025-01-02, version 2.0.4*

This is a great app for winter travel in Southern Oregon. I love how you can add specific cameras.  Well done!

### 5/5 — Great info app

*2024-12-10, version 2.0.4*

Great app thanks

### 5/5 — Far Better For Truckers…

*2024-11-21, version 2.0.4*

Than the crappy Oregon TripCheck web site that is impossible to see Chain status on a smartphone browser.

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2024-11-21*

Thank you to the developers who created and maintain this app! It’s a huge help for us tractor trailer combination drivers! It makes planning our trips so much easier and faster, and of course helps ensure for all on the road a safer trip! I’m a happy paying customer and I hope you keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — They now fixed it!

*2024-08-29, version 2.0.3*

Everything is working and the software is working great again.

### 5/5 — Super convenient!

*2024-01-25, version 1.0.3*

Being able to place cameras into different groups makes checking out my travel path super easy! Thanks for such an easy to use app!
