Hard to use, needs a serious upgrade The concept is good, but the execution. ..not so much. It is difficult to navigate due to the poor interface and seems to be designed for travelers on I-70 only. That said, I still have it on my phone with the hope that the next update will make it the very useful app it could be.

Lacks traffic updates Repeatedly end up parked on i70 for over an hour because of accidents but cdot doesn't show anything besides traction law in effect. This app would be useful if the info was actually updated and accurate.
Wish it worked Almost exclusively Denver (not where I live), and only shows a list of road construction sites. The menu doesnt open 80% of the time to see anything else of importance. Not useable

Totally useless. It only caters to I 70 and I 25! There is more to Colorado than those 2 hwys! No explanation of Rd conditions , no tappable features! Wyoming 511 beats Colorado 511 8 days a week! Take a lesson from Wy! Wy 511 app and phone 511, that's how it's done! Colorado 511 is an embarrassment! I try selecting the water drop hoping to get an explanation of road conditions and it says the roads are dry and windy when it's been raining and snowing for 2.5 days! This app is crap! A crappy app! Yes!

Needs LOTS of work Great maps, but NO legend, so nice colors, no clue what they mean..... Just give it up and join the 511 network. It would make it closer to a standard format for long distance trips.

Like most people say it is almost completely useless if you don't drive I-70 or I-25. These are 2 highways that I avoid like the plaque. What is worse is that in the past if you went to the website from a mobile device, you could get useful info. Now they have "improved" their website to where it is hard to get any info on a phone or tablet.

Cumbersome and not useful. See how long it takes to get the road conditions on a highway other than 70 or 25 without waiting for the "map" to load (forever). This app seems to think those are the only roads in Colorado. Being back the old app please.
Until CDOT learns how to update this app in real time it's useless and the "live videos" are not even real. Unbelievable.
Runs bad Runs like crap. Slow and studerry. Map has no tappable features. Zooms horrible. I have a updated marshmallow galaxy s6 so its not me.
It is never up to date on the information. It also counterdic it's own information.
Good start, but road cam videos don't work on my Moto, and can't find key for what road, black, red, yellow means. If black is full closure, then what is red vs yellow?
Battery hog Drains battery. Keeps GPS active all the time.
Seems more like a commercial than a driving aid. Might have been great in '13 but not so much now. Look at Wyoming for a suggestion.
Great app Wish it could store on SD card and not one internal memory tieing up limited mrmory.
Could be better Works okay for me. Some good information here, best for Denver and I70, but that's to be expected since that's where the traffic is. Map is the best part, but that is Google Maps with traffic option. The app is a serious drain on the battery and resources so quit when you're done. Would like to see better coverage of Denver to Fort Collins. And a better interface - the good stuff is hidden in the tiny menu button (top right).
Wants to be good. This app is promising, but honestly not even near as good as the mobile site has been for a while (which is pretty good). As others have mentioned, it's difficult to get info on anything but I70 and I25. It is obvious that it was built for ios. One of my biggest issues though is the notifications. The best I can tell, you can't disable them, and 90% of the time they don't have anything to do with where I am or where I intend to go.
Very useful True, it only covers I-70 and I-25, but that's I'll I need. You can see the electric sign boards, which give you accurate times, construction alerts, and other advisories. It updates every 3 minutes, which keeps you ahead of any traffic delays so you can plan your route in advance. Great app!
Not accurate It seems to assume info based on the weather forecasts rather than real conditions. We were on dry roads for 60 miles on I-76 and it said they were icy and snowpacked. Weatherbug was more accurate. Nebraska's road app is an easier model to use.
Petty useless Not easy to understand. Doesn't give enough detail on road conditions and traffic problems. I don't know how often the app updates but i've been stopped in traffic and the app shows clear. The CDOT web site has much better information.
Outside of the I70 and I25 corridor this app is less than stellar. Living in south central Colorado I am unable to specifically filter for road conditions that I travel the most. I am un-able to use this app for the info that I need most. Uninstalled
Cdot app is great for us who live and work in the mountains! I rely on this app for the commute. It lets me know conditions so I am not stuck on the roadside waiting in a welcome center or in my late model truck on the stopped interstate with my sick family member. It is a valuable app!
Horrible! Hey cdot, don't you maintain roads besides I-70? For those of us who travel roads other than I-70 (285, 40, 160, 50, 9, 24....) it would be great to having these road conditions available as well. This app need to be renamed I-70 roads conditions. To say that this is the "Official CDOT App" is a complete joke! What a waste of our hard earned tax dollars!
Pretty but useless for my needs I live in the mountains NW of FC. The 7 times in the last couple of my months that US 287 has been closed due to weather or accidents and I have been on the road there have been no notifications. Suppose it might work on the interstates but for the rest of the state not so much. CDOT doesn't seem to have a real time status outside of the interstate corridor.
Website much better Full of ads. Website is much better. 2/2016. I like the travel time summary page. That seems better. Wish it was separated into east and west on different screens with the areas broken up some more. Also colors green, red , black, yellow.
Needs to be more of a resource There is no information for the veins of Colorado road structure other than I-25 and I-70. Its time to really evaluate and think about that. How ridiculous.for the CDOT system.right now it Feb 21st 2015. We are getting hammered with snow and i'm traveling from Denver to Baily on 285 which..lmao ..is in Colorado and not a big part of this app.
Enough pushing! I get so many stinking push notifications from this app, it's become useless! If it were localized and gave me notifications about the roads near me or near where I usually drive, that'd be cool. But it's for every section of road anywhere. And I can't turn them off anywhere! Add a way to turn off push notifications and this app could redeem itself.
Not a bad app, but needs a little work. The big problem with this app is that you cannot find an obvious option to disable alerts. I do not need an alert about Vail Summit when I'm not in the area. The alerts may be nice for someone living there, but many users if this app are travelers or truckers. Please fix this or give us a conspicuous option to turn off notifications.
Colors are terrible I would expect CDOT to understand the importance of colors. This app is almost unusable to people with red-green colorblindness. Please switch to a darker green. I can't tell the difference between the greens and yellows. Hello ADA?
Typical gimped app compared to web No cameras. Web site is 10x better. Why bother? All phones that have apps have web. Uninstalled. I don't need another app running in the background sucking my battery dry.
Really? Fairly useless if you aren't on 70 or 25. Won't let you configure alerts, so you get useless notifications constantly. Too much advertising. I know it's free, but the same info is available elsewhere (i.e. Google maps) with less hassle.
Lame Slow. Inaccurate data. Location feature doesn't work - it keeps insisting I'm 60-100 miles away from where I really am. Just stick with the mobile site for much better results.
what happen to road condition list? this app no longers gives info as to conditions along high way. cams difficult to access and videos are so tiny they are useless.
Terribly programmed This app could be good, but it's quite bloated and riddled with bugs. It loves to drain the battery by continuously calling on the gps in the background. Also, for how simple the UI should be, it is not smooth at all.
Since the July 24 update Happy to report it now works with my Samsung Note 2 but that's about the extent of my good remarks. Interface is cumbersome and difficult to use. With the app being titled trip planner I would have thought that would be a way 2 navigate from point A to B and have it help you get there the fastest easiest most direct way. Nope. Guess it isn't bad if you just want to check travel delays and look at it highway cameras but you can do that on Google too so I'll stick with that.
For Denver Drivers Only This app only has information for I 70 and I 25 around Denver. Being sanctioned by CDOT, I expected more information regarding all of CDOT's road. As someone that drives daily from Glenwood to Vail, this app is worthless. CDOT's CoTrip website is more functional than this app for drivers outside of Denver.
