Ratings and reviews

It does what it says it does - it helps you beat the jam, with pretty accurate data and predictions. There are ads, but a really small price to pay for what is a simple fuss-free app that delivers good information.

I use your app regularly as I find the live updates quite accurate. The forecast info though is far from accurate as the jams go up to an average of 120mins or more, so your charts n scale needs to be updated to improve your credibility

Misleading and inaccurate info. I've encountered many times when the info was totally the opposite, or the duration suddenly shoot up which nearly impossible that the traffic could be building up within the timeframe. The traffic cameras images often "down" while the images were clearly shown at other app/websites. The reference data was outdated.

What's new

- Improved the location tracking algorithm such that it activates only when the app is active, and much less frequently. That means there is no background tracking and thus, no strain on battery life. Your location helps us improve the accuracy of our traffic data and forecasts!
- Added a new section that displays all traffic cams at the Causeway and 2nd Link
- Bug fixes and improvements
