I honestly really like this app and have been telling my friends about it. I carpool basically everywhere I go so I really enjoy the carpool feature and the rewards it’s gives😉. I think the different features are all really nice but I haven’t tried out the metro and bus ones before since I don’t like in an area with many, but overall I think this app is very easy to adapt to and much more rewarding than the typical GPS apps. Although I sometimes get logged out once in a while it’s not that inconvenient since it doesn’t happen that often. All my data is always intact and usually works perfectly!

Hi Mimi,We are so glad to hear that you like the app! Just so you know, the occasional logout happens when we release a new version, so you'll automatically be brought into the new one. Keep using the app for more rewards!
Needs improvement.

This app does a good job of putting all of the services from the various traffic agencies in Houston under one app. There's a good bit of planning involved in what the developer has achieved here and it's pretty impressive to say the least. All that said,I believe the application could use some updated maps since there are a few instances where streets that don't exist are skewing suggested routes. I've also noticed that seeing walk speed preferences don't change the projected time it takes to walk to a bus stop. There's a lack of live bus arrival updates, something the default apple maps app handles really well and sometimes bus routes don't even show up as an option when apple maps suggests them readily. Overall this is better than the metro app but not by much. I also use this app for cycling directions and with the exception of the times when it tries to send me down roads that aren't there, it works pretty well in this cycling-hostile city.

Hi G. MElvin, thank you for taking the time to leave us some feedback. As you mentioned, we work with many regional agencies to deliver the most accurate routes possible, but sometimes a road closure may slip through the cracks. At the end of every trip, you can provide a rating and leave a note regarding the route -- sharing your feedback there will help us greatly as we continue to make improvements. Thanks for the support!
Amazing & A Must have

This app is a must have for those that are visiting or even residing here. Easy tool to help me plan and map out my commutes in Houston from being able to locate bike-shares and even allowed me to purchase the bus and light rail tickets from the app! They also have other great features from roadside assistance to finding parking spots.
Feels like in-beta

I try to use this app as often as possible. There are some problems for sometimes it will not open. Additionally, there are times when I have to log in multiple days in a row for us with my other apps on iPhone, they open immediately. I really want it to open when I click the app. I think that when it doesn’t open, requires me to sign in again, that means a new update has been sent out. Not sure just a guess.I’ll keep using it trying it out, but when I am leaving town, I’m gonna be using my Apple Maps.
