The app doesn't always open when I am out of the country, showing a "technical difficulty" sign. I really wish I could zoom in on the pages. The weather forecast block has such small text it is often unreadable. Don't understand why the ads in front of videos have to be so long. I often see the same videos on the competition's websites without any ads.

Useless! Takes forever to open and DOES NOT HAVE TRAFFIC. If it does, it's hidden away as if a five year old was allowed to do their UX. Seems they want you to install a useless maps/routing partner app because they couldn't be bothered to provide the functionality themselves though. Probably going to write a stupid webview app for my own use to replace it since that's all it was anyway (with the addition of ads). WSDOT app isn't great but is lightweight and also works as a replacement.

I installed the app so I might be able to see the weather forecast in a better format. But as usual, there's no provision for us hicks outside of Seattle to personalize the information we want. The weather in Snohomish county is not the same as Seattle and it would be convenient to be able to change reporting parameters to reflect that. This is an update. The app has turned into a great one. I use it every day.
