### 1/5 — No improvements

*2026-07-02, version 4.7*

The simple previous version was useful. The new version is a complete mess. Push notifications with milepost numbers are useless. Should take user directly to map location when notification is selected. Search is useless. Just another UDOT project given to the lowest software bid, similar to all UDOT road projects.

### 1/5 — The worst

*2026-05-14, version 4.7*

Absolutely worthless app. Every time I have used it, it has never been up to date or remotely helpful.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-09, version 4.7*

Very hard to find cameras and accidents. Tooooooo much zooming and then you lose the image and it goes clear out to the whole state. The old version was so much easier to navigate. Why don’t you fix this. It’s been 3 years.

### 4/5 — Love the app.

*2026-04-26, version 4.7*

I love the app. I love the cameras. One addition I would love to see is to be able to click on the alert and have it show me on the map where it belongs to. That is like when you say mile post 164 I would love the app to be able to move the map to mile post 164 so I know where you’re talking about.

### 2/5 — Road conditions won’t load

*2026-04-22, version 4.7*

Such a useless app. Tried to use while heavy traffic on I15 and nothing would load. Why did this stop working, used to be a decent app

### 1/5 — Worthless, updates are two hours late

*2026-04-22, version 4.7*

Years ago this app was the best, now it’s waste of time. You check it out and it reports no traffic but then you’re stuck in traffic. Then when it reports traffic accident and when you get there nothing is there. Information is always 2 hours late. Who inputs the info should be trained how too do it instead of sleeping on the job.

### 1/5 — No cameras

*2026-04-16, version 4.7*

The latest version is not showing the camera

This app is worthless without them

### 1/5 — Cameras are nice

*2026-04-03, version 4.7*

Other than the cameras it’s worthless.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time downloading, it doesn’t work.

*2026-03-04, version 4.7*

Garbage app. Never functions properly, updates NEVER improve anything. UDOT is as competent at app building as they are at completing a road project in less than three years.

### 1/5 — Go back to old app

*2026-02-18, version 4.5*

Since the upgrade the app is to busy and hard to use. Keep it simple with the weather and camera all on at the same time.
