### 1/5 — Bad implementation

*2026-06-15*

Doesn't have same filter options as texasdrive.org and cameras aren't live like on texasdrive

### 1/5 — Waisted time

*2024-09-03*

Serves no purpose or function than google maps, at least google maps gives you start and end time with traffic conditions and arrival time 
Deleted ten minutes after downloading it

### 1/5 — Not much usable information

*2024-01-16*

Th

**Developer response:** Is there anything in the app description that is not actually in the app?

### 1/5 — Lincoln Loud

*2023-09-24*

This app is Lincoln Loud

### 1/5 — BMW

*2023-01-31*

This claims to be a free app but wants my credit card infor to determine my location. 
Location can be determined by address and zip, not giving you my credit card for that.

**Developer response:** Sorry, but that is a bogus ad, it's not the app. If you see it again, please send me the ad information so that I may block them

### 1/5 — Confused

*2022-09-23*

How come your app doesn’t show actual video of the areas that it pouting at but instead it just shows a photo that a little boring. Missouri has a app similar to your except it shows live video of the highways an such

### 5/5 — Bugs Fixed!!! Great App!! Very Handy!

*2022-03-02*

Sooooo glad to have this back up! I had this or similar app long ago and it stopped working at some point. Just thought to go see if it was working again and came across this developer and his app. Once you select cameras under layer it works just fine! I hope those with all the one star reviews will reassess and consider updating their reviews because there isn’t anything wrong with this app! Feature request to maybe get more frequently updated images (currently 10 minute intervals is the minimum) but it may be TXDOT limiting it. Who knows. Wish I had the live view that dispatchers get lol! Anyway, give the app a try. It is nice to be able to see for certain how things are looking out there. Thanks Developer dude for your efforts here!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2022-02-04*

I thought Illinois was bad, this is worse. Do better Texas. We would like to see the conditions for ourselves.

### 1/5 — What’s wrong.

*2021-12-10, version 2.3*

App is not working. It says cannot connect to server.

### 1/5 — Fix the app please

*2020-03-21*

If you don’t fix this app right now! Your crew will be fired

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.3 — 2026-08-17

This release has the following changes:

• added support for rectangular map pins, which is useful for certain data layers
• map settings now provides a sample map so you can see immediately what each setting does
• fixed a bug where popup windows were blank when running the app in dark mode

### 4.2 — 2026-06-21

This version fixes some minor bugs and reorganizes some of the code for performance and stability. We also moved the map's legend into the layer menu. We hope you find this to be a cleaner and more useful update.

### 4.1 — 2026-02-17

This version provides a couple fixes for these bugs:

* for small devices, the layout wasn't fitting entirely
* removed the All States tab from the bookmarks tab; this is only for US Traveler
* the traffic overlay should not show up in the filter tab

### 4.0 — 2026-02-04

This version is a complete rewrite to get in sync with its "mother" app, US Traveler. With this app, you'll find these changes:

* uses Apple Maps instead of Google Maps
* UI rewrite
* Using a new server, resulting in more and higher quality data
* You can now rotate your device on the image galleries to see larger images

### 3.2 — 2023-01-30

This minor release fixes these issues:

1. The highway labels disappeared when we upgraded the underlying map technology. This fix brings the labels back
2. We renamed the "Filter" tab back to "Legend". You can still filter the pins you see, but we felt the purpose of it is mainly as a legend, so we renamed it back.
