### 1/5 — Hate it

*2017-10-24, version 5.0.2*

Worst app ever I liked it when I first got it now I hate it turned me always around when I could’ve just gone my normal route worst ever

### 1/5 — Go back to the old version!

*2017-10-19*

This used to be my favorite traffic app. It was easy to use and gave up to date traffic for whatever area you were in. Now it is useless. Stop trying to be Waze.   I really wish she would go back to the old version. It was simple and useful.

### 1/5 — Oh No!!!!!!

*2017-10-04, version 5.0.2*

It used to be one of my favorite apps.
A useful tool that worked quickly. 
I recommend it to everybody.
I'm very upset with the update,
It is a totally different thing now!
Not Good!
Please, pretty please,
Make all the version available!

### 1/5 — This app is now a total waste

*2017-09-05, version 5.0.1*

This was the best traffic app, it was easy to look at roads and zoom in or out.   Now it is a mess.  They have runied a great app.

### 1/5 — Terrible update

*2017-09-03, version 5.0.1*

I loved this app prior to the update.  It was very easy to see my route.   Too complicated.   Please un-do!

### 1/5 — Worrible!

*2017-08-31, version 5.0.1*

Why did you change it? Sigalert has the old map. I deleted this one.

### 1/5 — Ruined a perfectly good app

*2017-08-27*

If it's not broke, why try to fix it. You have totally ruined an app that was simple to use and did it's job. I'm not interested spending time going through buttons and pages just to see if there is problem on my route. I just want to take a quick look, check for problems and go. I will not delete it yet, going to see if you respond to all the complaints, and fix it. If not, it will be placed in the deleted file like others that tried to create a better app, and failed.

### 1/5 — Update absolutely ruined app

*2017-08-26, version 5.0.1*

I used this app every day, I hate this app after the update. Uses location after leaving app, can't find cameras at all anymore, impossible navigation around map as you click on highways to get info instead of just panning around map. Please get it back to original!

### 1/5 — Stinks

*2017-08-26, version 5.0.1*

Please bring back the old version. This "new" version is horrible.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2017-08-26, version 5.0*

Why fix something that wasn't broken?  It WAS easy to read and quick.  Now it's hard to even tell what the conditions are like. Time to look for a new app. Sometimes simple is better people.

### 1/5 — Worse update ever

*2017-08-25, version 5.0.1*

Worse update ever!!  Use to love this app, now it is far too complicated.  Simple traffic flow is all we need.

### 1/5 — Update has ruined app

*2017-08-25, version 5.0.1*

I just want to look at traffic cameras now this app has none and is just a waze wannabe. RUINED APP ! Deleted from phone now.

### 1/5 — Loved it before

*2017-08-25, version 5.0.1*

I loved this app until the recent update.  It was so convenient to see a full clear map of my city's major roadways with accident updates.  Now it is too difficult to do while driving.  Seems like it's trying to mimic Waze.  Had to delete.

### 1/5 — Total Traffic App

*2017-08-24, version 5.0*

Now it has become Total Crap App.

Would love to hear the justification for this Attempt to make it more Waze like.

Hopefully they built an easy way to get back to the older model with either a click or a bug fix.

### 1/5 — I miss the the best traffic app there ever was

*2020-04-05*

Yes I do. It was done in by a update I accidentally allowed. Every time I turned it on, it just wanted to give me directions instead of giving me valuable information such as a major traffic jam. I knew how to get to work and all the other places I wanted to go. I hated to delete it- but after 2 weeks of waiting for them to fire whoever ruined the app and restore it- I dumped it. Stuck in Ft. Worth traffic with only waze☹️

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-02-21*

Better apps out there.  It seems this always needs to be situated to the correct heading.

### 1/5 — Terible

*2018-07-27, version 5.6.3*

the old app worked great. this one is useless. the only reason for one star is there isn’t a zero star.

### 1/5 — Useless!

*2018-07-27*

Will only work in limited areas of USA. Not available in Canada and nothing in AppStore to say this.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t give fastest route

*2018-03-15, version 5.6*

Completely ignored the fastest route to my job.  My work is a 45 minute commute the way I normally go.  The app offered a route that took over an hour and then a route that was 3 hours.    How does that make sense?

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2018-02-23, version 5.0.6*

The old app worked great. The new one is not even worth having. I am deleting it. Zero stars is to much of a rating

### 1/5 — What have you done????

*2018-02-01, version 5.0.6*

Are you trying to be like Waze? I loved the way you were.  Go back to show the traffic congestion rather than trying to tell me how to get somewhere I already know.

### 1/5 — Crap, go back to the old one

*2017-12-16, version 5.0.3*

Bit*h slap who said change the old one. This one is junk, y'all screwed up something that needed nothing. -5stars

### 1/5 — Please go back to the old version

*2017-12-08, version 5.0.3*

The old version was such a difference from map apps, why did you make it a map app? Switch it back to the old general traffic views.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2017-11-09, version 5.0.2*

They took away the static traffic map feature and now the app doesn’t even show correct traffic info. We don’t need another google maps, especially one that doesn’t work. I have deleted the app, poor development!

### 5/5 — Love it! Best Traffic App in Market

*2019-09-14*

Best traffic app... period. Accurate and reliable traffic delays and incidents at your fingertips.

### 5/5 — Good crash info

*2018-01-24, version 5.0.4*

Very helpful app

### 5/5 — Love "Places"

*2017-08-27, version 5.0.1*

I love that I can store the places I frequently go to, awesome new feature!!!

### 5/5 — Like it!

*2015-05-18*

If you live in a metro area, a quick check of this app before starting your trip will show you where problems are in real time. It will show you specifics as to what is causing delays by simply clicking on the map.  
I'm a truck driver and the app works well for me when I get into bigger cities where alternate routes are available.  But if not, then at least I know what the hold up is, where it is, and maybe even what lane will be the right one.  
Nice app.

### 5/5 — Live Cameras + Traffic Reports = Best Map App

*2015-02-28*

Other map apps seem to be so buggy and constantly crash my phone, making it hot and worried my phone will blow up.  This app is awesome, accurate, with video cams, and looks so clean on my phone.   I even found that I am an inch taller somehow after installing this. Things are certainly looking up.

### 4/5 — Loving the new app and obviously where it's headed

*2017-08-23*

Love the new traffic detail, the routing and saving of routes, the social aspect and the opportunity to contribute to better accuracy and currentness. It may have some areas for improvement but I'm sure they will be tackled, just like the old one. Yes, I'm initially resistant to change, and I like where they are going with this. Technical detail backed by a media company who wants to make your driving experience great with music, talk and now traffic data where I can contribute can only be positive. I'm all in. Who knows what the traffic experience will turn into.

### 3/5 — Needs Fixing

*2026-04-02*

This is a amazing app for basic drivers but there's one problem, it only shows california. But still Iove this!

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2018-10-04, version 5.6.4*

Worked fine for a few days during my
commute to work, now every time it’s says errors occurred while generating your route. Please fix.

### 2/5 — What were they thinking??

*2017-08-18*

Eeck! What were they thinking in rolling out this update? It's awful! You have to skip multiple attempts to get you to create an account, then the graphics look like something on a 20 year program. And I don't see how to display traffic cameras either.

### 2/5 — Not impressed...one of the worst

*2014-09-07*

As a person who drives for a living, this is the same unacceptable traffic map info as on my vehicle's stock GPS system. There is no coverage in Canada even though TT (CCMS) has coverage in major cities like in Vancouver, although only during rush hour during weekdays.

Data is typically inaccurate and delayed. In Portland during rush hour, traffic was congested for more than hour and TT didn't have any information on it.  In LA, the same. These are  just one of many examples. Data with Total Traffic isn't very good. Their map display, info, and icons et al leave a lot to be desired.  It looks like it's something from the 1980s.

Although still with their flaws, I recommend Beat the Traffic , Inrix, Apple Maps, Waze. and of course Google maps. 

Sigalert seemingly uses the same TT map data which I don't find it being useful or good. It's worse than the above mentioned. Each provider uses either their own or someone else's or a combination of traffic sources to provide traffic info.
