Ratings and Reviews
Not as in depth as the 511 map website
Doesn't show local road closures or most incidents that appear on the website itself.
The route options are badly programmed
Tried setting up a route that I normally travel to the city. Whatever picks the roads used is terrible, even using multiple waypoints to try to force the route to follow the path. An absurd combination of surface streets, reversals on parkways and unnecessary route changes make it impossible to force the route to follow any reasonable path. The rest of the features can be found online, so there's not much point in getting the app.
Doesn’t work anymore with IPad
Takes minimum 45 sec to load. When it does load it lands on Russia. Once I get it to New York, the videos take forever to load, then they continually flash on and off.
