Ratings and reviews

Old app was much better. I hate the new travel times. Before you could just enter your starting and ending points and given the total travel time. Now I have to add up all the individual times. On busy mornings, I dont have time to do this. I just want the actual time from point a to point b!! Please fix this as the new travel times are useless. Thank you.

Must have app for getting around Houston, check this first, then hit the road.

may 2024 , POS unable to get this app to work... Just buffers and crashes. Rather like the traffic jams im trying to avoid by using this horrible app. ** 2019, reviews note similar issues.. so updating this app is NOT gonna happen evidently... traffic will be backed up and cleared before this dreadful app is working well... I don't think most ratings are REAL either..

What's new

Thank you for your continued support and patience. In this update, we’re addressing the following:
- Numerous bug fixes
- Camera images shown on the maps page have been increased in size to better see traffic conditions. Also, the roadway name added with the nearest street name to show the location of the camera.
- Tow icon isolated from other icons to better assist in being able to call for a tow.
