What are users saying about CBS Philly Traffic

X70%
by X####:

Doesn't show options for saved routes when there is traffic so you can quickly change your route. That's the purpose of a traffic app isn't it ?

X70%
by X####:

Unusable. Not user friendly. Not designed to allow changing routes. A badly designed app.

Anniversary trip a success.

This is the most sorry excuse for an app I have ever seen. I've been struggling just to get the app started for a good 15 minutes!! The app keeps freezing and it kicked me out several times. And even while it's open, it lags horribly and I'm on wifi!! Don't wast ur time with this app! I've already installed it!!

S70%

Very nice

Z70%
by Z####:

Not worth my time

B70%
by B####:

Not only are there no instruction(s) on how to use this app, such as something that tells you how upon opening the app, there doesn't even appear to be a menu inside the app that could allow a diligent user to figure it out if they tried real hard... And I know it's a traffic app but, without a real KYW 1060 radio app...this is the closest thing to that and this app is trash! (It's probably CBS that is responsible for this, not KYW. Still, one would think that KYW would have a spine...) Uninstalled!

C70%
by C####:

It never opens up. It crashes. I download it four times now it never works.

B70%

No Delaware.

Y70%
by Y####:

Doesn't keep up with interchanges on highway. By the time it alerts me to trouble it's too late to get around it

R70%
by R####:

Title says it all. Tried wiping data, uninstalling, reinstalling. Same thing.

X70%
by X####:

Great just needs to give a little more advance warning of connecting routes. So that you can deviate.

N70%
by N####:

There is no instruction on how to operate this app and I am very frustrated when you push a button you constantly hear the same thing however there's nothing after that

X70%
by X####:

Crashes every time I open it after most recent update

X70%
by X####:

This app is helpful but still has a lot of bugs to work out. I don't always get my updates on time and a few times they haven't shown up at all. The average travel times I have found to be very inaccurate. Great concept that I hope is improved over time.

X70%
by X####:

Entered several point-to-point routes and the routes chosen by the app are ridiculous. Need to be able to drag to the correct route.

R70%
by R####:

Very useful app with no issues

X70%
by X####:

But there really needs to be a way to drag/customize/change a route. I was hoping the Add Waypoint would help accomplish this, but I don't know what function that provides.

E70%

Very good

Is good.

This app os really reliable amd gives very accurate directions.

J70%
by J####:

it has features such as customizable notification and link to cbs local day.

X70%
by X####:

Great!

F70%
by F####:

Notifications disregard system volume and give you audio alerts. Very helpful for meetings and other times you purposely put your phone on vibrate. Difficult to use, doesn't find routes from point a to point b sometimes, has strange routes for other trips. God forbid you be indoors with no GPS signal and have to enter a route manually. Not that it stops looking for a signal, ever, even long after you think you have exited the app. Uninstalled within an hour.

Q70%
by Q####:

Having problems holding routes. Just not responding the way I thought it would.

X70%
by X####:

I used this app several times when travelling for time critical appointments. Saved me from getting stuck because of accidents and construction on my routes.

J70%
by J####:

I don't want my driving habits sent to other people to third parties. I will unistall this app. Read the notice that comes up before you use it. I never had accident or speeding ticket. Cbsphilly has no right to use my info.

X70%
by X####:

Greater app for driver. Safer than waze.

Q70%
by Q####:

It calculated only ridiculous routes, didn't allow differentiation between routes, nor alteration of the routes.
