Ratings and reviews

Their "simplified, sleek look" that's "easier to use" is no different than it was. It's still clunky as hell. There's a settings gear in the top right but if you try to tap it it just takes you to the Pay tab. Same for trying to save trips. Cannot log into my account but when you try to reset the password, the reset link takes you to a dead page. If you want to select a trip by entrance and exit it's even harder than before. I needed to barely use the tip of my pinky on the tiny down arrow to get the menu to drop down. This is literally no different than the old app except for an updated skin. You'd think after raping people's wallets with their $30 evening commutes, VDOT could afford to actually find some someone that could make an app worth a damn.

The cost is consistently incorrect! That makes this app worthless. Update, it has been months and the app still has the same problem. It is the afternoon and toll roads are going south. Why is the app going the wrong direction?

Horrible app has continuously quit when trying to use for years. The app much like the Department of Trasportation in Virginia is completely useless, not to mention the unabashed highway robbery of the Express Lanes costing daily commuters up to $50 one way everyday and somehow they get away with it. Unbelievable to charge amounts like that for commuters who live so far away because they can't afford to live closer to the DC area. One way or another they'll get the money we don't have.
