Same as previously reported a long time ago, Error fetching Alerts, deleted.
Apple should remove in my opinion

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2018-09-23*

Could never get road alerts to work. Kept telling me alerts failed! Uninstalling!

### 1/5 — Not useful or unique

*2016-04-21*

I thought this app would show road conditions related to flooding, but it just shows traffic and that poorly; other apps already do that. No stars for this app today. Default is one star but none are deserved here.

**Developer response:** Did you purchase the flood package? That is separate from the road conditions.

### 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

### 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

### 1/5 — Missing key Travel information

*2019-11-27*

Why doesn’t this show road conditions and LIVE cameras so that we can at least see the conditions for ourselves like the other states in the US?

### 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!
