About Travel Advisory

The Indiana Travel Advisory app is meant to help users stay aware of changing travel conditions.

Features include:
- Ability for users to set alerts for any county or counties they choose, up to every county in the state. When the travel status in a selected county is changed, the user will receive an alert notification.
- Weather conditions for each county. Tapping on a county will display the temperature and an icon with the current conditions.
- Contact information for county emergency management agencies, which are responsible for the status updates.

The State reports data provided by county Emergency Management Agencies (EMAs). Some counties only update data when there has been a change in status and do not reaffirm that everything is ‘Normal.’

For example, County X may not have had any travel emergencies since June and has remained in the ‘Normal’ category the entire time, since the status has not changed, there has been nothing to update. The next time there is a county-level emergency impacting travel, the status is changed by the county EMA and is reflected in the app.

Other sources of travel conditions should also be consulted, including local news, travel, weather and social media sites and apps.

This seems like it'd would be a great app, but NO ONE EVER UPDATES THE COUNTY INFORMATION! We are in the middle of a snow storm and there is literally no county with any advisory whatsoever. I travel a lot throughout the state and it would be amazing to be able to plan my travel accordingly. Thanks a lot people who are supposed to update it...

I like the notification feature identifying the county and new status, but when more than one county's status changes it only tells you that 2 counties changed, not which ones or to what status. Then you must open the app for details. BTW, it crashes every time I open it. ?!?!?

Y70%
by Y####:

It is nice to be notified of a county's status, especially when it changes to "Warning" - but to be informed without details as to why the status has changed is meaningless. Could these details be added to the "info" button? Thanks for the app!

The program worked until it was updated, now all I get is a map of the world.

It tells you advisory levels and alerts you for specific counties you choose but it eats alot of battery and constantly restarts.

The 1.91 update fixed the issues that completely broke the last version. Now the app works the way it's supposed to, and provides quick access to the county travel status. Would give 5 stars if I didn't have to accept the terms every single time I use the app.

This update fixed the issue with being stuck in global map. Running latest Samsung Galaxy S5 Verizon update.

by M####:

Now all I see is global map. This app is no longer of any use to me. I'm on the most recent Android OS. Maybe that's the issue?

Worked great until the latest update. Now I get to see a global map of the world. If I wanted that, I'd look across the room at the globe. Please fix!

It updated and now the app won't work at all.

by V####:

Colors are off, if they are shown at all. On 7 of 8 devices I've used this on, it rarely colors in all the counties, even though all the county data is loaded. Not grey for no data, just never colored. I either need to keep refreshing hoping to see the counties I want, or select the county so it shows info popup. When it does show colors, it shows orange, red, and redder. Should be yellow, orange, and red. I sent developer an email with no response.

No information, maps the whole world. The worst part of the winter this year and this is broken for it.

by M####:

Yep, mine doesn't work either since the lollypop update. Loved it before, hope you can get it fixed soon and we don't have any really bad weather.

by M####:

I used to rave about this app, I Loved It !!! Then out of no where it won't load ! I hope it gets fixed because when it works its a really great tool to have.

by M####:

Unfortunately. ...stopped. ..never would load. Waste of time and space.

H70%
by H####:

The app does not have color-codings that match the state's DHS travel advisories. The app should use yellow, orange, and red, not orange, red, and "redder". An initial glance would indicate a status of watch when it is actually only an advisory. Please match colors with official state DHS site. Also, does a user really have to agree to the disclaimer every time the app is opened? Seriously?

A70%
by A####:

Whoever is responsible for updating their county is failing miserably at their job. I completely agree with other users, we're currently under a winter storm warning for yet another 24 hrs, road conditions are EXTREMELY dangerous yet no one feels it's important enough to alert the community &/or update the status to reflect the national weather service warnings and alerts! Don't bother utilizing the contact info for your county it will repeatedly be ignored.

Jasper country is in the middle of a 12" snow event. This app reports "normal" conditions.... last updated 2 weeks ago. Waste of time and memory space.

M70%
by M####:

Page takes longer to load than the IDOT webpage with the same map. Keeping app for the notifications. Good start, but needs improvement.

O70%
by O####:

Once, JUST ONCE, I wish a developer would take color blindness into consideration. Although this application seems beneficial, I will never have any way of knowing!

E70%
by E####:

Whats the point if your county dose not update its statuses?

N70%
by N####:

only things i find annoying is the disclaimer everytime i open app and the fact the dates and time are GMT timezone instead of EST timezone.

M70%
by M####:

Counties need individual update

M70%
by M####:

App works, but, if the phone goes to sleep the app closes! Every time the app is opened, (or "re-opened" as is the case, because of it automatically closing), I must "re-agree" to the "terms and conditions" of the app. I have downloaded the app and already agreed to the terms then, why would I need to continually do that, over and over again afterwards? It's unnecessary, and annoying! Please change this! And also add road "conditions" (ice/snow/wind/damage etc.)

M70%
by M####:

The only problem I see so far is the date shown on the update when you click on the county. It updated on 1/5/15 @ 11pm, but the date shown is 1/6/15.

Winter storm warnings and this app , and the state website are 3 days out of date .....WTF ?

Really wanted this to be good, its not. Just bookmark the website version.

The colors need to be different. The yellow looks orange

by M####:

I opened this app to see how the roads were. It said all clear. My son who drives 65 home hit a patch of ice and totalled his car. Why have an app for bad road conditions and not update it? Heck I got more info from Facebook than this app. I have uninstalled.

M70%
by M####:

Doesnt update!!!

F70%
by F####:

Great app

Y70%
by Y####:

Every time app is opened have to agree with disclaimer? Would be a little less irritating if you only had to do this once. Or I'm I missing something......

Downloaded it but it wouldn't show up on my phone.
